O knihe

Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle: An Essay, Reprinted From 'Blackwood's Magazine'

This being the root-idea, we have said it al ways presents itself to him in a particular aspect, which he has expounded in his 'sartor Resartus.' It appears to him that the last suit of clothes with which the world was invested is worn out. In Church and State, and all Society, he sees only looped and windowed raggedness. All the insti tutions in which the moral necessities of man are embodied, are in decay and ruin - even as the world's former wardrobes of paganism, and monkery, and chivalry, exist only in museums. The world is out at elbows, and the time is out of joint; and Mr Car lyle, not without sad appreciation of the cursed spite which dwells in the circumstance, believes that he was born to set it right.
