	Education \| Inspiration of a hero: John Ruskin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		John Ruskin, the great art critic, had nothing to do with the founding of Ruskin College a year before his death in 1900.
		But for the group of American postgraduate students in Oxford who were the driving force behind establishing the college for working men (and it was men only in the early years), Ruskin was a hero.
		His attacks on the social injustice and squalor resulting from unbridled capitalism appealed to many reformers, although the Slade professor of fine art at Oxford harked back to a primitive society rather than forward to socialism.

		During the current academic year, the Slade Professor of Fine Art at Oxford University is Tom Phillips.
		The main public duty of the Slade professor is to give a series of lectures, and Phillips planned his course to reflect as many facets of his artistic life as possible.
		So he conceived the last of his Slade lectures as a concert, in which the soprano Mary Wiegold and baritone Omar Ebrahim, along with the Composers Ensemble conducted by Peter Wiegold, gave the first performance of a collection of songs Phillips had commissioned for the occasion.

	Who was Pevsner? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		His interest in British art and architecture developed while teaching at Gñttingen University in the early 1930s, and when in 1935 the rise of Hitler forced him to leave his native soil for good, it was in London that he settled.
		Pevsner later became Professor of History of Art at Birkbeck College (University of London), Slade Professor of Fine Art at Cambridge and a Gold Medallist of the Royal Institute of British Architects.
		Pevsner's considerable academic achievements were complemented by an active interest in conservation issues; as a founder member, and later chairman, of the Victorian Society, he did much to promote the study and conservation of Victorian architecture at a time when it was under appreciated.

	News: Ruskin’s teaching collection online
		As Oxford University's first Slade Professor of Fine Art (1870-1878 and 1883-1885), John Ruskin created a collection of images to assist his drawing classes, divided between undergraduates and members of the public.
		Ruskin's approach to teaching was to educate his students in how to see and understand the world around them, as a result the collection and its organisation exemplified Ruskin's conception of the natural and artificial world.
		This project, funded by a grant of from the Resource Enhancement Scheme of the Arts and Humanities Research Board, has reassembled the collection virtually by creating a website of digitised images from works that were in Ruskin's teaching collection as well as online versions of Ruskin's catalogue texts and instructions.
