Description

Dismissed by contemporaries as the ravings of a deluded enemy of modernity, The Storm Cloud of the Nineteenth Century is an eerily prescient denunciation of capitalisms assault on the atmosphere and the profound danger for the earth but also the spiritual wellbeing of humanity. It is one of Ruskins final writings, conducted with both rigorous scientific observation and a sense of Biblical prophecy. Ruskins call to action is even more urgently needed today. His rallying cry, There is no Wealth but Life, is implicit throughout the Storm Cloud. How his thought developed through a conflicted relationship with the professional science of his day, and what we can take from his writings, are examined by Peter Brimblecombe, Professor of Atmospheric Pollution at the University of Essex, in his Introduction. A foreword by the Master of the Guild of St George, Ruskins association for social and spiritual reform, sets out what Ruskinians today can do and are doing.
