Synopsis

Book by Greenaway Kate

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Preface A part from her work, full record of which is made in the following pages, there was in the life of Kate Greenaway one outstanding feature her friendship with John Ruslcin. To this, without the permission of the great critics legal representatives, no sort of justice could have been done. It is therefore our first duty and pleasure to put on record our great indebtedness to Mrs. Arthur Severn, Mr. Alexander Wedderburn, K.C., and Mr. George A llen, for their liberality in allowing us to make copious extracts from Ruskin sside of the vigorous correspondence which was carried on between him and Kate Greenaway for so many years ;this generous permission is only accompanied by the proviso that, in accordance with the undertaking announced by the editors and publisher of the Library Edition of Ruskin scomplete work, all of his published letters shall ultimately be included in that noble issue. These letters have here been printed with the strictest adherence to Ruskin speculiar method of punctuation long and short dashes in place of commas, semicolons, and the like. From Kate Greenaway sside of the correspondence abundant drafts have also been made, for they reveal the writers character and method of thought better than any independent estimate could do.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
