Thomas Carlyle was a prominent Scottish writer, historian, and essayist of the Victorian era, known as a social polemicist and an influential translator of German literature. Trained at the University of Edinburgh and initially prepared for the Protestant ministry, he turned to the study of German after being deeply affected by Madame de Staël’s De l’Allemagne, translating works such as Wilhelm Meister and producing a biography of Schiller. His literary reputation was established by The French Revolution, a work that made him known as a romantic historian and remains one of his milestones. A proponent of reading history through the lives of great men, he published notable essays such as On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History, as well as works like Chartism and Past and Present. Carlyle also compiled and edited historical correspondence and speeches, including letters of Oliver Cromwell and biographies such as that of Frederick II of Prussia. Appointed Rector of the University of Edinburgh in 1865, he left a controversial legacy: significant literary and historiographical influence in the nineteenth century, later challenged by movements such as the Annales School.
