About this book
Thomas Carlyle is a book by Hector C. Macpherson. A certificate quoted in the book reads that Mr Thomas Carlyle has been in the class during his college course and has made good progress in his studies. In his Rectorial Address of 1866, Carlyle says the university taught him to read in various languages, in various sciences.
The book records that Fraser undertook to print Chartism, which was in the hands of the public before the close of the year. The text asks why the Bible attracts to its pages men of all kinds of temperament and all degrees of culture, and answers that in it, especially in the Psalms, Job, and the writings of Isaiah and his brother prophets, serious people are brought face to face with the great mysteries.
