Essays on German Literature and Culture, Part II

"This meticulously prepared edition makes a significant contribution to the study of Romantic and Victorian literature and culture by providing, for the first time, a reliable and fully annotated text of some of Carlyle's most important and influential literary critical writing. The two books represent a major editorial achievement and an indispensable resource for future scholarship on nineteenth-century Anglo-German literary contact and cultural exchange."--Tim Sommer, Lecturer in English Literature and Culture, University of Passau, and author of Carlyle, Emerson and the Transatlantic Uses of Authority: Literature, Print, Performance
