Download or read book Selections From Carlyle Classic Reprint written by Thomas Carlyle and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From Carlyle The present volume, it is believed, includes within its narrow limits material adequate for the elementary study of Carlyle in his earliest and most fruitful period. The notes are planned in the main to give aid rather than information or Opinion. By the frequent quotation of supplementary or illustrative passages wherever it was practicable, the plan has been to let the author annotate himself. Occasionally it has seemed natural to call atten tion to some characteristic mode of thought or of expres sion, but in neither case has a set analysis been attempted. The editor's suggestions to the teacher who may use this book are three: First, that some sort of insight into the character of the man Carlyle is essential, not only as a commentary upon, but as an introduction to, the study of his work. Second, that a good deal of additional matter should be read aloud to the class, with a view to familiarizing them with peculiarities of manner which are obstacles only to the unaccustomed ear. And third, that all systematic discussion of style be reserved until the student has had a chance to form an Opinion of his own, and is ready to take a part in the discussion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings From Carlyle: Selected and Edited With Introduction and Notes Tm; present attempt to render Carlyle accessible to schools seems naturally to require some few words of introduction. It has not been thought desirable to reduce the great writer by any method of simplification to the capacity of the lowest, as, by so doing, he would inevitably disappear. His manner and matter are inseparable. Nor, indeed, was it necessary; for Carlyle h the faculty of making his meaning plain, though the. Staple of his thinking may at first be above the capacity of that class of readers for whom this work is intended. Boys, however, will be benefited by attempting the great books resolutely and directly, rather than by any mistaken and laborious policy of approaching them through Introductions and Primers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Carlyle Boswellism has its place in the case of a man like Carlyle properly a very great place. So far as the flood of personalities and trivialities in his case has been excessive, he provoked it himself, it will be said, by Remim'seenees. What is to be said of these Reminiscence: First, that they' are no true revelation of Carlyle at all to him who does not al ready know Carlyle and know where to place them. We do not, as has been said, reveal a man when we give to the public what his deliberate judgment would have withheld. To print, as the poor fee ble hand left them on the very morrow of the shock which appears for the time to have enfeebled his mind, those incoherent jottings, with their tangled parentheses and their incessant repetitions, seems to us the same kind of mistake as to exhibit some sketch by a great master, almost blotted out by his tears. Hid in its portfolio, the sketch was some thing sacred we can imagine those who had a right to gaze on it drawing it forth reverently, and feeling their own eyes moisten at the sight. But hung on the Academy walls, the effect is far otherwise. We, who find it there, can only pass it in mournful si lence, in painful consciousness that it cannot be in terpreted to the casual looker-ou. That these Rem iniscence: were written in the most inconsiderate manner, in a day of grief, when the mind was sick.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conversations With Carlyle Critics of these papers have recognised that Carlyle is made to use the exact phraseology he Was accustomed to employ. The conversations were, in fact, written down immediately after they took place, When his emphatic and significant language was still fresh in my memory. Readers Who knew Carlyle Will, I think, recognise the familiar cadence, and those Who did not know him Will have the means of realising his ordinary speech and method for themselves.

By degrees I realized that a voice was trying to make itself heard through the rhythm Of the Shower, and straining my ears I caught a petulant, Well?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Thomas Carlyle "If," says Carlyle, "an individual is of sufficient consequence to have his life recorded for public remembrance, we have always been of opinion that the public ought to be made acquainted with all the inward springs and relations of his character." Heartily concurring in this opinion, I have ventured to make the study of this great man's life my aim for months past - to try and account for the gloom and despondency which were so marked in his character, and which, on the surface of things, seem almost unaccountable. In the following pages I have endeavoured to give to my readers incidents in his life, traits in his character, that made him so little of an optimist in expression, and yet the inward conviction that at heart he did not really believe the universe to be demoniacal, but God-like, and man the temple of the Most High. The following pages, I trust, will prove that he was no selfish, cantankerous, domestic tyrant, or teacher of virtues he failed himself to put in practice; that in him there was nothing false or insincere; that he was throughout his long, chequered existence actuated by noble and heroic motives, carrying heavy burdens enough to crush a less dauntless spirit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Characteristics of Carlyle The following pages were written as an answer to the question, What are 'the characteristic features which distinguish Carlyle as a Writer and as a Man? They were written mainly with that object. Some critical notes are added on his peculiar opinions on certain social, political, and religious questions, on the estimate to be formed of him as a historian and as a general writer, and, lastly, on his peculiar style of expression, as seen more par ticularly in his later writings. The utmost care has been taken to make this view of Carlyle fair and impartial, to estimate at their true value the great qualities which distinguished.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mr. Froude and Carlyle As a rule the names of those who supplied new material are not now given; but as names must often be given, at least in notes, in the final work, those who supply information and desire their names to be with held should inform the author of their wishes. Names which he is expressly requested or which he can guess he is expected to withhold, shall of course never be mentioned. The author hopes that publicity will be given to his appeal for information by the courtesy of many editors. Many footnotes have been omitted, to lighten the book. Perhaps what remain are enough.
