Summary: "Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 67, No. 416, June 1850" by Various is a collection of essays and literary pieces published during the mid-19th century. The magazine reflects on contemporary social, political, and cultural issues of the time, encompassing various topics such as political critiques, travel accounts, and dramatic reflections, with contributions from notable writers, including a section discussing the works of Thomas Carlyle. The opening portion delves into a critique of Thomas Carlyle’s "Latter-Day Pamphlets," exploring the contradictions in his arguments against societal shams while simultaneously positioning himself as a public thinker. The critic dissects Carlyle’s views on government, democracy, and the nature of authority, asserting that Carlyle’s disdain for established systems positions him as an impractical philosopher rather than an effective reformer. As the essay unfolds, it establishes the tension between idealism and the realities of effective governance, highlighting Carlyle’s radical thinking and its implications in the context of British politics at the time.
