Thomas Carlyle (1795 1881) was one of the most influential authors
of the nineteenth century. Eagerly studied at the highest level of
intellectual society, his satirical essays and perceptive
historical biographies caused him to be regarded for much of the
Victorian period as a literary genius and eminent social
philosopher. After graduating from Edinburgh University in 1814, he
published his first scholarly work on German literature in 1824,
before finding literary success with his history of the French
Revolution in 1837. After falling from favour during the first part
of the twentieth century, his work has more recently become the
subject of scholarly re-examination. His introduction of German
literature and philosophy into the British intellectual milieu
profoundly influenced later philosophical and literary studies.
These volumes are reproduced from the 1896 Centenary Edition of his
collected works. Volume 15 contains the fourth volume of The Life
of Frederick the Great.
