Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle No more interesting personality dominated the life and thought of the nineteenth century than that of Thomas Carlyle. It is true that the century was rich beyond the record of preceding generations in writers and thinkers, who gave nourishment and guidance to all varieties and forms of intellectual inquiry. In fiction, Thackeray and Dickens were in themselves a crowd. In fact, the latter gave to the reading world more characters, in every variety, than any other writer, except, perhaps, Shakespeare and Sir Walter Scott. He gave to the English world a saga of the joys and sorrows of the people, and of all classes of people, such as literature had previously considered beneath her notice and outside her pale, besides giving an impetus to imaginative writing and the creation of the modern problem-novel. Any historian who writes about the Stewart epoch has before him Macaulay´s march-past with trumpets and cymbals, the pageant of history in full dress, which, as it moves across the stage, leaves behind it the lingering echo of its music.
