Обложка John Ruskin: Queen of the Air (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

In a unique 1869 take on Greek mythology, the influential Victorian-Edwardian sage considers the myth of the goddess Athena. Ruskin asks us to consider Athena—“in the heavens, the earth, and the heart”—as a vital force in the material world channeled by those leading virtuous lives and also as “the directress of the imagination and will.”
