Produktbeschreibung

In 'The House of the Wolfings,' William Morris weaves a rich tapestry of myth, history, and romance, set in the imaginary land of 'the Wolfings' during the dark ages. The prose, characterized by its lyrical quality and intricate imagery, reflects Morris's deep appreciation of Norse mythology and English folklore, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a time steeped in valor and tradition. Narratively, the story centers around themes of heroism, community, and the connection to nature, challenging the industrial values of Morris's own Victorian era by illustrating a society in harmony with the earth and its cycles. William Morris, a multifaceted figure, was not just an author but also an artist, designer, and socialist. His deep-rooted admiration for medieval craftsmanship and aesthetics permeates his literary works. Influenced by his experiences in the Arts and Crafts Movement and his socialist beliefs, Morris penned 'The House of the Wolfings' to advocate for a simpler, more integrated existence, contrasting starkly with the industrialization dominating his time. This novel invites readers to immerse themselves in a world of pastoral beauty and timeless ideals, making it an essential read for enthusiasts of fantasy and historical narrative. Morris's unique blend of poetic prose and social critique provides a compelling exploration of humanity's eternal struggle for identity and belonging.
