Download or read book The Sundering Flood written by William Morris and published by Echo Library. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Morris (1834-96) was a British textile designer, poet, novelist, translator of Icelandic sagas, and socialist activist, associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement. He was a major figure in the revival of traditional British textile arts and methods of production, and his contributions to literature helped to establish the modern fantasy genre. As an author he achieved success with his epic poems and novels, his best-known works being The Earthly Paradise (1868-70), the Utopian novel News from Nowhere (1890), and the fantasy romance The Well at the World's End (1896). The Sundering Flood was Morris's last work of fiction, completed only in rough draft with the ending dictated from his deathbed. It was edited posthumously by his daughter May and published by his own Kelmscott Press in 1897. The novel is a fantasy in the medieval tradition of chivalrous romances which unites an imaginary world with elements of the supernatural, and can be seen as a precursor to much modern-day fantasy literature. Morris employs an imitation of medieval prose that possesses a lyrical quality and remains very readable despite the archaic language. The book tells the story of the lovers Osberne Wulfgrimsson and Elfhild who live on opposite sides of the Sundering Flood, an immense river. When Elfhild disappears during an invasion by the Red Skinners, Osberne is heartbroken and takes up his magical sword and joins Sir Godrick's army, helping overthrow the tyrranical king ruling the city at the mouth of the river. He is later reunited with Elfhild, and all ends happily.

William Morris (24 March 1834 - 3 October 1896) was an English textile designer, poet, novelist, translator, and socialist activist. Associated with the British Arts and Crafts Movement, he was a major contributor to the revival of traditional British textile arts and methods of production. His literary contributions helped to establish the modern fantasy genre, while he played a significant role in propagating the early socialist movement in Britain. Born in Walthamstow, Essex, to a wealthy middle-class family, Morris came under the strong influence of medievalism while studying Classics at Oxford University, there joining the Birmingham Set. After university he trained as an architect, married Jane Burden, and developed close friendships with the Pre-Raphaelite artists Edward Burne-Jones and Dante Gabriel Rossetti and with the Neo-Gothic architect Philip Webb. Webb and Morris designed a family home, Red House, then in Kent, where the latter lived from 1859 to 1865, before moving to Bloomsbury, central London. In 1861, Morris founded a decorative arts firm with Burne-Jones, Rossetti, Webb, and others: the Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. Becoming highly fashionable and much in demand, the firm profoundly influenced interior decoration throughout the Victorian period, with Morris designing tapestries, wallpaper, fabrics, furniture, and stained glass windows. In 1875, Morris assumed total control of the company, which was renamed Morris & Co.
