Reseña del libro "Puritan Temper and Transcendental Faith: Carlyle's Literary Vision (en Inglés)"
Over the years, students of Victorian literature have remarked in the writings of Thomas Carlyle a certain bewildering ambivalence in his attitude toward the value of literature in life, and, by extension, toward aesthetic experience in general. Readers who have been drawn to Carlyle by Sartor Resartus and the early essays have found no more effective antidote to their enthusiasm for his work than the Latter-Day Pamphlets. Various explanations of this contrariety have been proposed. Professor Ikeler, who begins by weighing each, ends by discarding all. Carlyle's attitudes, he argues, were profoundly affected by-indeed inseparable from-his religious thought. If Carlyle's veneration of literatures and its creators sprang from his transcendental faith on the one hand, his distrust and outright rejection of literary art were the result of his being the son of strict Scottish Calvinists on the other. For the first time in the critical literature, Mr. Ikeler gives serious consideration and systematic attention to this Calvinist background, which has been so much referred to and so little explored. He finds that those antithetical forces that characterize Carlyle's moral and religious thought remain unreconciled in his aesthetic. Through an exhaustive analysis of the expressed opinions on the art of Calvin, Knox, and the chief German Romantics, Professor Ikeler demonstrates conclusively that, when viewed in the light of Carlyle's overall intellectual development, the apparent incongruities in his attitude toward art are but fugitive fragments of underlying and wholly coherent bodies of thought. A. Abbott Ikeler is an assistant professor of English at Bowdoin College.
