Famous Scots - Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Carlyle was born on 4 December 1795 in a cottage in Ecclefechan, Dumfriesshire. After school in Annan he went to Edinburgh University to study mathematics. He had originally been destined for the church but although he never lost the piety instilled in him as a child, he could not accept the biblical foundations of Christianity. He returned to Annan as a schoolmaster and later became a tutor but his monumental intellect and enquiring mind diverted him into the life of an author, initially a number of relatively minor biographies for Brewster's Edinburgh encyclopedia. Carlyle married in 1826. It was to be a stormy relationship due to Carlyle's fiery temper and her quick wit and vitriolic tongue, but they remained close till the end of their lives. In 1828 the Carlyles moved to a moorland farmhouse of Craigenputtock where for six years Carlyle produced a large number of books (including essays on Burns, Voltaire and Boswell's Life of Johnson) and developed his literary style. In 1834 Carlyle and his wife moved to No5 Cheyne Row in Chelsea, London and he began one of his greatest works "The French Revolution". Carlyle was fanatical about researching original documents and often fought the establishment to be allowed to view these. He worked for a year on his masterpiece and passed the first volume to a friend to look over. But a careless servant then burnt the entire document! Lesser men would have despaired but he set to and wrote it again - the third volume was completed in January 1837 and Carlyle wrote "You have not for a hundred years any book that comes more direct and flaming from the heart of a living man".

Thomas Carlyle Thomas Carlyle was born in Ecclefechan on 5th December 1795, son of a hard-working and pious stonemason. Father and mother both destined their eldest son for the Church, and were to be lifelong influences: they instilled a strong sense of belief, of divine order, of the importance of hard work. They also helped by example to sharpen a formidable style, both spoken and written. Edinburgh University followed local schools; rapidly losing any ambition for the Church Carlyle tried school teaching, translation, scientific writing, tutoring, the law - slowly working his way to modest success as essayist, translator, biographer, and by the late 1820's to public notice as author of important essays Signs of the times Characteristics and an astonishing early work, Sartor Resartus in which Carlyle anticipates many features of twentieth century writing, stripping off the rotting fabric of belief in his own age, and calling for a radical re-think and renewal.

Thomas Carlyle Carlyle was born the same year as John Keats and was a the son of a stonemason and farmer, a background he proudly viewed as that of a "peasant." He was educated at Edinburgh University, where he read widely but did not complete his degree. He disappointed his parents' desire that he enter the ministry because he lost his faith in Christianity, though he remained strongly influenced by his father's Calvinism. He support himself first by teaching, and then from 1824 by writing. His wife Jane, whom he married in 1826, is well known as a letter-writer. Carlyle wrote for years before gaining prominence. Sartor Resartus (begun 1830, published 1836), his fictionalized autobiography, was not well received. He gained a wide readership close to the age of 40 with his history The French Revolution (written 1834-7, published 1837), after having written in a letter to his friend John Stuart Mill that the "right History" of the French Revolution would be "the grand Poem of our Time." This work, like most of Carlyle's writing, challenges the boundaries between genres by blending the essay and fiction, poetry and history, in an exuberant and provocative depiction of the the revolution. Later in life he became more conservative, alienating supporters like Mill and Matthew Arnold with such writings as "An Occasional Discourse on the Nigger Question" (1849), in which he advocated harsh measures for the formerly enslaved West Indian labourers who were demanding higher wages. Despite the excessive and objectionable features of his work, however, he was considered by

C : Carlyle, Thomas Biography C. exercised a very powerful influence upon the thought of his age, not only by his own writings and personality, but through the many men of distinction both in literature and active life whom he imbued with his doctrines; and perhaps no better proof of this exists than the fact that much that was new and original when first propounded by him has passed into the texture of the national ideas. His style is perhaps the most remarkable and individual in our literature, intensely strong, vivid, and picturesque, but utterly unconventional, and often whimsical or explosive. He had in a high degree the poetic and imaginative faculty, and also irresistible humour, pungent sarcasm, insight, tenderness, and fierce indignation.

60. Thomas Carlyle Thomas Carlyle; A Profile of Thomas Carlyle. Thomas Carlyle, (17951881),was a Scottish essayist and historian, who was an influential social critic. http://www.webscot.co.uk/greatscots/thomascarlyle.htm

GREAT SCOTS - THOMAS CARLYLE Thomas Carlyle, (1795-1881), was a Scottish essayist and historian, who was an influential social critic. He was born in Ecclefechan on December 4, 1795, and educated as a divinity student at the University of Edinburgh. After five years of study he abandoned the clergy in 1814 and spent the next four years teaching mathematics. Dissatisfied with teaching, Carlyle moved to Edinburgh in 1818, where, after studying law briefly, he became a tutor and wrote articles for the Edinburgh Encyclopedia. He also made an intensive study of German literature, publishing Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship (1824), a translation of the novel Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre (1796) by the German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Carlyle also wrote Life of Schiller (1825), which appeared first in serial form in 1823 and 1824 in the London Magazine. After a trip to Paris and London, he returned to Scotland and wrote for the Edinburgh Review, a literary periodical. In London Carlyle wrote The French Revolution, A History (2 vol., 1837), a historical study concentrating on the oppression of the poor, which was immediately successful. This was followed by a series of lectures, in one of which, published as On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History (1841), he contended that world civilization had developed because of the activities of heroes. His hatred and fear of democracy and praise of feudal society were reflected in much of his subsequent writing, especially in Chartism (1839) and Past and Present (1843). His concept of history appeared in a number of his later works, notably in Oliver Cromwell's Letters and Speeches, with Elucidations (1845) and History of Frederick II of Prussia, Called Frederick the Great (10 vol., 1858-65), his most extensive work. After the death of his wife, he edited her letters; his autobiography, Reminiscences, was published in 1881. He died in London on February 5, 1881.
