The book The Communism of John Ruskin or, Unto This Last: Two Lectures from The Crown of Wild Olive and Selections from Fors Clavigera is a collection of writings by the renowned English writer and art critic, John Ruskin. The book includes two lectures from Ruskin's work The Crown of Wild Olive and selected passages from his monthly publication Fors Clavigera. The lectures in The Communism of John Ruskin are focused on Ruskin's political and economic philosophy, which he termed Christian Socialism or communism. In these lectures, Ruskin argues that the current economic system is unjust and that there should be a redistribution of wealth to ensure a fairer society. He also advocates for the importance of community and cooperation over individualism and competition. The selected passages from Fors Clavigera provide further insight into Ruskin's ideas on social and economic reform, as well as his views on art, literature, and culture. The book as a whole offers a comprehensive look at Ruskin's political and social thought and its relevance to contemporary debates on inequality and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
