| Summary | "Life and Character of Richard Carlile" by George Jacob Holyoake is a biography written during the mid-19th century. The book provides an in-depth examination of Richard Carlile, a prominent figure in the fight for freedom of speech and expression in England. Holyoake presents Carlile's struggles against societal norms, religious constraints, and governmental oppression during a tumultuous time in British history. In this biography, Holyoake recounts Carlile's life story, from his early years in Devonshire to his significant role as a bookseller and publisher of controversial materials, which led to multiple imprisonments. The narrative highlights Carlile's determination in promoting free thought and challenging religious and political authorities, notably through his support of Thomas Paine's works and his founding of public discussions. Holyoake emphasizes Carlile's moral fortitude, intellectual rigor, and the impact of his relentless activism on the movement for press freedom. The account also reflects on the personal toll of Carlile's principles, including strained family relationships and the challenges posed by a society resistant to change.
