According to Wikipedia: ‘Thomas Carlyle’s major work, Sartor Resartus (meaning ‘The tailor re-tailored’), first published as a serial in 1833-34, purported to be a commentary on the thought and early life of a German philosopher called Diogenes Teufelsdrockh (which translates as ‘god-born devil-dung’), author of a tome entitled ‘Clothes: their Origin and Influence.’ Teufelsdrockh’s Transcendentalist musings are mulled over by a skeptical English editor who also provides fragmentary biographical material on the philosopher. The work is, in part, a parody of Hegel, and of German Idealism more generally.’ According to Wikipedia: ‘Thomas Carlyle (1795 – 1881) was a Scottish essayist, satirist, and historian, whose work was highly influential during the Victorian era. Coming from a strict Calvinist family, Carlyle was expected by his parents to become a preacher, but while at the University of Edinburgh, he lost his Christian faith. Calvinist values, however, remained with him throughout his life. This combination of a religious temperament with loss of faith in traditional Christianity made Carlyle’s work appealing to many Victorians who were grappling with scientific and political changes that threatened the traditional social order.’
