Octavo 8.75" x 5.75" A<br /> <br /> ABOUT THE BOOK SET <br /> <br /> The French Revolution: A History was written by the Scottish essayist historian and philosopher Thomas Carlyle. A massive undertaking which draws together a wide variety of sources Carlyle's history--despite the unusual style in which it is written--is considered to be an authoritative account of the early course of the Revolution. Carlyle's radical departure from the classical histories of the eighteenth century came as a shock to Victorian critics. Lady Morgan found the mere publishing of such a work premature and superfluous while censuring Carlyle's style. William Makepeace Thackeray found the style initially difficult yet ultimately rewarding and called the book's appearance "timely". Mill praised the work lavishly announcing that "This is not so much a history as an epic poem." The book immediately established Carlyle's reputation as an important 19th-century intellectual. It also served as a major influence on a number of his contemporaries including Charles Dickens who compulsively carried the book around with him and drew on it while producing A Tale of Two Cities. Martin Luther King Jr. often quoted from the third chapter of the sixth book of volume one saying: "We shall overcome because Carlyle is right 'No lie can live forever.'"<br /> <br /> ABOUT THE AUTHOR <br /> <br /> Thomas Carlyle December 1795 - February 1881 was a Scottish essayist historian and philosopher from the Scottish Lowlands. A leading writer of the Victorian era he exerted a profound influence on 19th-century art literature and philosophy. His works were highly regarded throughout Europe and North America. He founded the London Library contributed significantly to the creation of the National Portrait Galleries in London and Scotland was elected Lord Rector of Edinburgh University in 1865 and received the Pour le M rite in 1874 among other honors. <br /> <br /> CONDITION REPORT<br /> <br /> Both volumes are in VG antiquarian condition.
