This well-aged copy of Thomas Carlyle’s seminal work “Sartor Resartus” offers a window into the Victorian era’s intellectual ferment. First published in 1836, this satirical philosophical novel challenged conventional thinking and explored themes of spirituality, symbolism, and the nature of truth. Carlyle’s unique style, a blend of fiction and social commentary, earned him a reputation as a sage and influenced writers like Emerson and Dickens. Despite its flaws, this edition bears the charming patina of a cherished book, with an intriguing inscription hinting at its journey through time. For collectors and readers alike, it presents an opportunity to engage with a work that sparked debates and shaped literary and philosophical discourse in 19th-century Britain and beyond.
