| description | That William Morris belongs to the British socialist tradition is an indisputable fact, but should one decide to try and identify the nature of this eccentric author’s contribution to the emergence of socialism in Great Britain, all certainties tend to fade away.

It will then be possible to bring William Morris’s socialism into focus. |
