Excerpt from The Genius of John Ruskin: Selections From His Writings His works are as burdened with contradiction as experi ence itself. Perhaps that is what Shaw meant when he said that few men have embodied our manifold nature more markedly than Ruskin. Endowed with a great mind yet re taining the emotions of a child, noble and narrow, dog matic and yielding, immoderate both in delight and despair, arrogant and gentle, self-obsessed and self-sacrificing, com pulsively communicative yet solitary, prophetic and blind, Ruskin was always changing and always himself. Even his contradictions have a certain consistency. At different stages of life he reacted differently to the same things; yet each re sponse was absolute in its integrity, reflecting a unity of sensibility rather than of system. Throughout his career his mind was capable of change, and hence of growth; but the change, as he once remarked, was that of a tree, not of' a cloud.
