Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle Of the writing of books on Carlyle there is no end. Why, then, it may pertinently be asked, add another stone to the Carlylean cairn? The reply is obvious. In a series dealing with famous Scotsmen, Carlyle has a rightful claim to a niche in the temple of Fame. While prominence has been given in the book to the Scottish side of Carlyle´s life, the fact has not been lost sight of that Carlyle owed much to Germany; indeed, if we could imagine the spirit of a German philosopher inhabiting the body of a Covenanter of dyspeptic and sceptical tendencies, a good idea would be had of Thomas Carlyle. Needless to say, I have been largely indebted to the biography by Mr Froude, and to Carlyle´s Reminiscences. Into the controversy over Mr Froude´s editorial conduct I have not entered. In the body of this work will be found a hitherto unpublished letter received by me some years ago, in which Mr Froude gives a vigorous presentment of his side of the controversy.
