| Summary | "The Correspondence of Thomas Carlyle and Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1834-1872, Vol. II" is a collection of personal letters between the influential writers Thomas Carlyle and Ralph Waldo Emerson, written during the mid-19th century. This volume captures their exchanges over nearly four decades, highlighting their thoughts on literature, philosophy, and personal struggles, as well as their reflections on key social issues of their time. The opening of this volume presents an overview of their correspondence, beginning with Emerson's letter dated July 1, 1842, where he discusses personal matters and his literary endeavors, including edits on the "Dial", a magazine he was involved with, and the financial exchanges between them. Carlyle's responses reveal his own literary challenges, particularly regarding his work on Cromwell and his views on the "modern worker." Both correspondents share their thoughts on mutual friends, current affairs, and the struggle for authenticity in their writing, establishing a profound intimate dialogue grounded in mutual respect and intellectual camaraderie. Through these letters, readers gain insight into the personal lives and deep philosophical ideas that shaped their enduring legacies. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
