Scottish-born British historian and essayist who was a leading figure in the Victorian era. Carlyle's Sartor Resartus was a disguised spiritual autobiography, in which he faces the tendencies to intellectual skepticism and dedicates himself to a life of spiritual affirmation. The first half of the book is about the ideas of a self-made philosopher who believes everything can be explained in terms of clothes. Carlyle also undertook several series of lectures, of which the most significant was On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History.
