Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Letters of Thomas Carlyle, Vol. 2 I have almost forgot to say that if the glasses do not suit exactly - observe merely whether you need to hold the book, or other object, 100 near or zoo far from the eye; write this down for me pointedly; and send the spectacles up to me by Garthwaite, that the fault may be remedied. They can put in a pair of new sights in five minutes, and I have bargained that it shall be no additional expense. In fact the presem' sighs were put in to suit my descrip tion, and the man told me that as they grew too young, it was the custom to get them changed regularly. See, therefore, that you are pro perly fitted - since alteration can be made so easily. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Early Letters of Jane Welsh Carlyle written by David G. Ritchie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Letters of Jane Welsh Carlyle: Together With a Few of Later Years and Some of Thomas Carlyle It was in the beginning of last October that I first saw any of the following letters. Most of them are addressed to Eliza Stodart, my great-aunt. I knew of the existence of letters from Mrs. Carlyle to her, but until they came into the hands of my mother and myself I could not know that it would seem a duty to English literature to make them public. The desire to do so might have been overbalanced by other considerations, had not the private life of Mr. and Mrs. Carlyle been already so much exposed to the general gaze; but since the case has, so to speak, come before the court (whether rightly or wrongly I need not discuss), it is only fair that important evidence should not be withheld. It will be noticed that nearly four-fifths of these letters belong to the years before 1834, the date at which the letters published by Mr. Froude in Letters and Memorials of Jane Welsh Carlyle begin: so that here, for the first time, may be read an account, brief and yet abounding in detail, of the earlier years of Jane Welsh, from her fathers death till her marriage, and of the life at Craigenputtoch, as seen from her own point of view and described in her own words. I have, indeed, the less hesitation in publishing these letters, because of the pleasing light in which, on the whole, they show both Carlyle and his wife; and, in saying this, I would call attention to the fact, that all the letters to Eliza Stodart are printed without omissions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Thomas Carlyle, 1826-1836, Vol. 1 MY dear mother - Had it not been that I engaged to let you hear of me on Saturday, I should not have been tempted to put pen to paper this night for I am still dreadfully confused, still far from being at home in my new situation, inviting and hopeful as in all points it appears. But I know your motherly anxieties, I felt in my heart the suppressed tears that you did not shed before my departure, and I write at present to tell you that you are not to shed any more.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Thomas Carlyle, 1826-1836, Vol. 2 Our plans here are getting a little more fixed: I can now give you some faint fore shadow of them. I pride myself that I have never gone half a foot out of my road in search of what are called prospects: it is yet and has always been clear to me that I was one whom Promotion was least of all likely to visit. Thank Heaven I know my trade: it is to write tram while I can be kept alive by so doing, and to die writing it when I can no longer be kept alive. SO feeling, I look upon all mortals with the friendliest humour; let Kings and Chancellors fight their own battles, and all speed to them let the Devil go his way, and I will go mine. Therefore after settling my Author-business in London, I will not stay an hour, waiting at the pool, as some advise me. On the whole the world stands related.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Thomas Carlyle, 1826-1836 The letters contained in this volume have been selected from a great mass mainly addressed to the various members of Carlyle's family. In the years in which they were written he had few important correspondents in the outer world. The letters as here given afford a tolerably continuous account of his life from his marriage to the period when his fame was about to be established by the publication of his French Revolution. Many interesting letters of these years appear in Mr. Froude's Life of Carlyle; but they are printed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Letters of Thomas Carlyle Mr. Carlyle was for many years, especially during his early manhood, an industrious letter-writer. A great many of his letters have been preserved and are in the possession of his niece, Mrs. Alexander Carlyle. It is at her desire that I have undertaken to edit a selection of them. "Express biography of me I had really rather that there should be none," said Carlyle in his Will, and a biography of him, correct at least if meagre, might perhaps have been gathered from his letters, his Reminiscences, and the Memorials of Jane Welsh Carlyle. Mr. Froude, however, thought otherwise, and has given to the public an "express biography" of him. The view of Mr. Carlyle's character presented in this biography has not approved itself to many of those who knew Carlyle best It may be a striking picture, but it is not a good portrait For the present, at least, it appears impracticable to prepare another formal biography. The peculiar style of Mr. Froude's performance, already in possession of the field, might perhaps put a portrait of Carlyle drawn by a hand more faithful to nature, and less skilled in fine artifices than his own, at a temporary disadvantage with the bulk of readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle: A History of the First Forty Years of His Life, 1795-1835 Mr. Carlyle expressed a desire in his will that of him no biography should be written. I find the same reluctance in his Journal. No one, he said, was likely to understand a history, the secret of which was unknown to his closest friends. He hoped that his wishes would be respected. Partly to take the place of a biography of himself, and part ly for other reasons, he collected the letters of his wife-letters which covered the whole period of his life in London to the date of her death, when his own active work was finished. He prepared them for publication, adding notes and introductory explanations, as the last sacred duty which remained to him in the world. He intended it as a monument to a character of extreme beauty; while it would tell the public as much about himself as it could reasonably expect to learn. These letters he placed in my hands eleven years ago, with materials for an Introduction which he was himself unable to complete. He could do no more with it, he said. He could not make up his mind to direct positively the publication even of the letters themselves. He wished them to be published, but he left the decision to myself; and when I was reluctant to undertake the sole responsibility, he said that, if I was in doubt when the time came, I might consult his brother John and his friend Mr. Forster.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle Early in the year 1863, when I first visited Eng land, Emerson gave me a letter of introduction to Thomas Carlyle, which at once secured for me a gra cious reception and kindly entertainment from the author and his wife at Chelsea. It was their custom to receive their friends in the evening, and I was invited to join their circle as often as it might be convenient to me. As time went on, this evening circle at Carlyle's became smaller, and many a. Time I was the only guest present. I was also invited by Carlyle to share his walks, after he had given up the horseback exercise he used to take. These afternoon walks were long, generally through Kensington Gar dens, Hyde Park, and even into Piccadilly. I was careful never to interrupt his hours of literary labor, and always to obey Mrs. Carlyle's kindly intimations as to his habits and exigencies. My relations with the memorable home at Chelsea were always, and to. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Love Letters of Thomas Carlyle and Jane Welsh, Vol. 2 of 2: Edited by Alexander Carlyle His anxieties relieved by receipt of Miss Welsh's last Letter. Blessed be Cadmus, who first imported letters into Europe; blessed be Jane who makes so noble a use of that invention. She transports him from the smoky furnaces of Birmingham home to clear skies and souls that love him. - What a strange tragi-comedy is that of Dugald G., which she describes so neatly and with such graphic touches! Her conduct in the affair a pretty mixture of mercy, gracefulness, and female cunning. Wishes to know to whom she is "engaged" is he a genius and "elegant"? Is he a poet or a philosopher or both in one? - Asks if she is deliberating about the task he assigned her; he win take no denial. - Is idle himself: Nondum should be his motto, with Poppies argent and three Sloths dormant on a Tree disleaved. Is growing quite an Asiatic; and alas, this is not "Araby the Blest"! - Day-dreams of becoming the interpreter of truth and manly integrity and imaginative beauty, with Jane his fair and pure Egeria, to perfect, adorn, and recompense his labours! - Is going back to London, and perhaps into Kent with Mrs. Strachey and the Orator. - She must translate something of Schiller's for the "Life"; Has many things to tell Carlyle, had she time. Has got a new Brother, the handsomest she ever saw or fancied, - Baillie by name. His want of genius alone saved her from falling seriously in love with him.
