Keskinäinen ihmisyys
Keskinäinen ihmisyys -- Naisista -- Elämä yksin on rikkautta -- Kauneuden siunaus.
E-text prepared by Tapio Riikonen
"Keskinäinen ihmisyys" by John Ruskin is a philosophical text written in the early 20th century. The work delves into concepts of humanity, the value of work, and the moral responsibilities that accompany human existence. Ruskin emphasizes the significance of labor and virtue, arguing that true happiness stems from meaningful work and the cultivation of compassion among individuals. The opening of the text introduces the central themes of human existence, categorizing experiences into work, pain, and joy, each with its own nobility and baseness. Ruskin argues that one cannot escape the consequences of these experiences; an existence devoid of them is worthless. He posits that each individual has a divine purpose that contributes to the greater good, and he stresses the importance of performing one’s tasks with sincerity and dedication. Through rich philosophical musings, Ruskin sets the groundwork for a deeper exploration into how genuine human connection and ethical behavior intertwine with the acts of daily life.
