Notă biografică
William
Morris
(1834-1896)
was
one
of
the
most
influential
thinkers
and
artists
of
his
time.
At
Oxford,
with
the
painter
Burne-Jones,
he
fell
under
the
influence
of
Ruskin
and
Rossetti.
Preoccupied
with
the
poverty
of
modern
design
he
taught
himself
at
least
thirteen
crafts
and
founded
his
own
design
firm,
Morris
&
Co.
In
the
late
1870s
he
became
active
in
political
and
environmentalist
matters
and
converted
to
socialism
in
1883,
helping
to
found
the
Socialist
League
a
year
later.
