Craigenputtock and Wilheim Meister--the rough, wild, churlish island upon which Johnson drew the carriage shade before an indignant Boswell, and the balanced periods of a great German classicist--these were the opposing forces which shaped the life of Thomas Carlyle. The land tore the veils from his vision, made him a poet and a seer--the other involved him in a nebulous World-Idea and a style of tortured courage. Never did one man, and a lone Scotchman, strive to embody in himself ideals so contradictory--guessing like a child about Mirabeau, about Lafayette, and guessing rightly, but struggling with words and phrases which stretched like impossible pagodas into a German sky. Stormy, ill-tempered, tenacious to truth and error alike, once he had spoken but yet so glorious in his failure as brave as splendid, as startling as a Norse god in his twilight. "Past and Present," one of the fifty volumes left behind by this man whose cardinal virtue was silence, will be discussed this morning at 9 by Professor Rollins.
