  Article:   TWO KINDRED SPIRITS: RUSKIN AND TURNER, REVISITED.

Authors:  ANDA-ELENA CREŢIU.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  The present essay tries to bring to the reader’s attention a somewhat neglected aspect of the Victorian age in the arts and literature: the impressive relationship between two great spirits of the time: Ruskin and Turner. Both of them can be considered the last of the romanticists, either in literature, or in art. Both of them had an enormous impact on their successors in the respective domains. Each of them considered poetry as a supreme value capable of manifesting itself both in writing and in painting. Their poetry stemmed from the revelation of the Truth of Nature as God’s creation.
