This Everyman's Library Series Number 278 in the Essays & Belles-Lettres series edited by Ernest Rhys features two highly influential pieces by the Scottish philosopher, historian and essayist Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) with an introduction by William Henry Hudson. Sartor Resartus is a novel by Scottish author Thomas Carlyle, first published as a serial in Fraser's Magazine in November 1833 August 1834. The novel purports to be a commentary on the thought and early life of a fictitious German philosopher named Diogenes Teufelsdröckh (translates as 'Zeus-born Devil's-dung'), author of a tome entitled Clothes: Their Origin and Influence. Teufelsdröckh's transcendental musings are mulled over by a skeptical English reviewer (referred to only as "Editor") who also provides fragments of biographical material on Teufelsdröckh. Carlyle's work is a parody of Hegel and more generally of German Idealism. "Sartor Resartus" humorously ranges over every field of learning and experience, pointing out the false values of the age. "On Heroes, Hero Worship and The Heroic in History" advocates a moral reconstruction of Britain based on heroic figures of the past. Made in Great Britain at The Temple Press Letchworth.
