Carlyle and the Mythology of the Hero in History
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Carlyle and the Mythology of the Hero in History
Wednesday 04 December 2024 is the 229th anniversary of the birth of Thomas Carlyle (04 December 1795 - 05 February 1881), who was born in the village of Ecclefechan in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, on this date in 1795.
Carlyle was a man of his time, a Victorian, but, like Nietzsche, he has his moments when he surprises, even still today. Carlyle provides us with a counterpoint to his younger but short-lived Victorian contemporary Buckle, who saw great men as the expression of their time, while Carlyle saw the times as the expression of great men.
