    Sartor Resartus was a strange and new book when it was first published in 1833, and in many ways it remains a strange and new book today. The bulk of the novel takes the form of the a commentary on the life and works of the fictional Diogenes Teufelsdröckh, a sort of renaissance-man German philosopher who develops a ¿Philosophy of Clothes.¿ The commentary is composed by a fictional English commentator, known only as the ¿Editor¿; the Editor claims to have translated many of Teufelsdröckh¿s ideas and quotes from German. As the commentary progresses, the Editor receives a bag of paper scraps on which are written various autobiographical fragments from Teufelsdröckh¿s life. The Editor¿s attempts to organize and interpret these scraps forms the second part of the novel.The work is multi-faceted: sometimes a parody, sometimes a comedy, sometimes a satire, and sometimes seriously philosophical. Some critics consider it an early existentialist text. At the very least its unique structure and use of meta-narrative is hugely influential to modern literature; Borges was said to have memorized entire pages, and modern texts like Nabokov¿s Pale Fire borrow liberally from the concept of a meta-narrative organized on scraps of paper.

    Thomas Carlyle wrote a series of writings titled "Latter-Day Pamphlets" that discuss numerous social and political topics in Victorian England. The present-day topic of the first essay, "The Present Time," is society's moral and spiritual deterioration. According to Carlyle, people have lost touch with higher principles and are instead preoccupied with worldly success and individuality, which has created an atmosphere of confusion and discord. The second article, "Model Prisons," critiques the English penal system, which, according to Carlyle, fails to rehabilitate offenders and instead makes them into jaded criminals. Carlyle analyses the shortcomings of the British government in "Downing Street," specifically its corruption and bureaucracy. The collection also includes writings on subjects including education, slavery, and the Irish Famine. Carlyle focuses on the value of morals and spirituality in society throughout the pamphlets and critiques the excesses of industrialization and capitalism. Carlyle calls for a return to old values and a more moral and spiritual approach to social and political concerns in "Latter-Day Pamphlets," which is essentially a criticism of Victorian society and its institutions.

    Thomas Carlyle published a series of lectures titled "On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History" in 1841. Carlyle contends that heroes are crucial to human advancement and are in charge of influencing history. He characterizes a hero as having a "great spirit" and the capacity to move others to action. Carlyle examines several sorts of heroes, such as political figures, poets, religious leaders, and scientists, and he believes that hero-worship is a natural and essential component of human civilization since it enables individuals to aspirationally adopt the traits of heroes in their own life. Carlyle, however, also criticizes the hero-worship of his own day, contending that it is wrong to admire ordinary public personalities and celebrities who lack truly heroic traits. He urges a return to genuine heroism and the social acceptance of the worth of moral and spiritual principles. The book "On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History" examines the nature of heroism and its impact on the course of human history. Many authors and intellectuals were greatly influenced by Carlyle's theories, which are being researched and discussed today.
