"Thomas Carlyle" by G. K. Chesterton and J. E. Hodder-Williams is a biography written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life and philosophy of Thomas Carlyle, a prominent Scottish essayist, historian, and philosopher known for his influence on 19th-century literature and thought. Through a detailed examination of Carlyle's ideas and contributions, the book addresses his complex views on rationalism, hero-worship, and the role of individuals in history. In this biography, the authors delve into Carlyle's upbringing in Ecclefechan, his intellectual development, and his literary works, including "Sartor Resartus" and "The French Revolution." The book emphasizes Carlyle's belief in the significance of the "great man" in shaping history and critiques the rationalist perspectives of his time. It highlights the dual forces of rationalism and irrationalism in shaping modern thought, ultimately presenting Carlyle as a pivotal figure who advocated for recognizing the deeper, often overlooked aspects of human experience. With insightful analysis and numerous illustrations, the book provides both an overview of Carlyle’s life and an exploration of his impactful philosophical ideas.
