14543 Austen's Characters Oliver Twist"A Study of a Nineteenth Century Idea." This classic work came about in an era when Carlyle's study of the French Revolution and political thought was sometimes held up as a cause of the Great War. His ideas about what makes the Great Man the Hero are examined in the context of Carlyle's own influences, including the late 18th century poets, writers and thinkers, as well as German philosophers.
