More about the book

Focusing on a critique of modernity, Carlyle's essay delivers a scathing examination of contemporary society, noted for its intensity and controversial views. Its powerful arguments were so striking that they were labeled "purely monstrous" by contemporary critics. Accompanied by another of Carlyle's essays, this collection invites readers to engage with his challenging perspectives on the issues of his time.
