After Carlyle had finished his three volume of 'The French Revolution', he .......... .
Through his friend John Stuart Mill, the English philosopher. Thomas Carlyle became interested in
the French-Revolution and set to work on a monumental history. After five months of difficult work
on this project, Cariyle completed the first volume and left it with Mill for criticism. While in Mill's
possession, the manuscript was accidentally burned by a maid lighting a fire. Mill was appalled when
he discovered the loss and rushed to Carlyle's house nearly frantic with grief. Carlyle did not utter a
word of reproach but tried only to console his friend. After Mill had left, he said to his wife, "Mill,
poor fellow, is terribly cut up. We must endeavor to hide from him how very serious this business is
for us." The three volumes of The French Revolution' were finally published in 1837. The book was
immediately successful. The days of struggle were over, and Cariyle took his place as a leading
English writer. His other books followed one another at intervals of two to five years. Cariyle had a
few "messages" that he continually repeated. He affirmed that work of all kinds is dignified and
sacred. He thought that men must renounce personal happiness to obtain peace of mind. He believed
that the world must be governed by "heroes" — strong, just men; consequently he felt that the people
should put their faith in such men arid not in democracy. In his own day Carlyle exerted a strong
influence on other writers, but today few people read Cariyle for what he had to say. The majority read
his books for their majestic style and revealing flashes of his highly individual personality.
