1.The French Revolution (Oxford World s Classics)The French Revolution (Oxford World's Classics)
from Oxford University Press, USA

Customer Review:
This is indeed a very strange work of history; Carlyle narrates the events of the Revolution as those of a Victorian novel. It is difficult to convey a true sense of the hyper-dramatic prose that results, so it might be better to include some excerpts from the text:
The surrender of the... more info

2.On Heroes, Hero-Worship and The Heroic in HistoryOn Heroes, Hero-Worship & The Heroic in History
from Pomona Press
Price: $29.99

Customer Review:
There are not many books sold at Amazon.com that were written almost two centuries ago. There might be a few written a few millenniums ago but they are mostly translations. There is something special when one reads the spoken word untranslated. Only in its original form, words have the mysterious... more info

3.Wilhelm Meister s ApprenticeshipWilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship
from Aegypan
Price: $25.95

Customer Review:
Whenever I read Goethe's poems, plays or prose, I'm reminded of his genius. But I have a particularly warm spot in my heart for Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, Goethe's philosophical novel. The story is gripping, the characters majestic and the ideas compelling.
The novel's cornerstone is its... more info

from IndyPublish
Price: $13.99

Customer Review:
From the correspondance of T.H. Huxley:

"...when I look back, what do I find to have been the agents of my redemption? The hope of immortality or of future reward? I can honestly say that for these fourteen years such a consideration has not entered my head. No, I can tell you exactly what has... more info

6.Carlyle: Selected Writings (Penguin Classics)Carlyle: Selected Writings (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics

Customer Review:
Carlyle's 'Sartor Resartus' is the greatest neglected book in cultural history, endlessly complex, subtle, always self-critical, ironic, mysterious, beautiful and powerful. Not a book to read through from beginning to end, but one to dip into, explore, examine from different angles. As in the book... more info

from B&R Samizdat Express
Price: $0.99

Customer Review:
This is just a real though provoking book. If it's light reading you want, stick with the comics in the newpapers. If you want a book that that will make you think and learn - then this is a great choice. Also, the CreateSpace edition is physically attactive both inside and out, with an easy to... more info

8.Thomas and Jane Carlyle: Portrait of a MarriageThomas & Jane Carlyle: Portrait of a Marriage
from Random House UK

Customer Review:
As I expected from Ashton (having read her admirable biographies of George Eliot and G.H. Lewes), this is an excellent biography, thorough and well-researched. Ashton is sympathetic to both Carlyles, who had a famously unhappy marriage, yet objective, never taking sides; she understands Carlyle's... more info
