Thomas Carlyle wrote a series of writings titled "Latter-Day Pamphlets" that discuss numerous social and political topics in Victorian England. The present-day topic of the first essay, "The Present Time," is society's moral and spiritual deterioration. According to Carlyle, people have lost touch with higher principles and are instead preoccupied with worldly success and individuality, which has created an atmosphere of confusion and discord. The second article, "Model Prisons," critiques the English penal system, which, according to Carlyle, fails to rehabilitate offenders and instead makes them into jaded criminals. Carlyle analyses the shortcomings of the British government in "Downing Street," specifically its corruption and bureaucracy. The collection also includes writings on subjects including education, slavery, and the Irish Famine. Carlyle focuses on the value of morals and spirituality in society throughout the pamphlets and critiques the excesses of industrialization and capitalism. Carlyle calls for a return to old values and a more moral and spiritual approach to social and political concerns in "Latter-Day Pamphlets," which is essentially a criticism of Victorian society and its institutions.

Thomas Carlyle published a series of lectures titled "On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History" in 1841. Carlyle contends that heroes are crucial to human advancement and are in charge of influencing history. He characterizes a hero as having a "great spirit" and the capacity to move others to action. Carlyle examines several sorts of heroes, such as political figures, poets, religious leaders, and scientists, and he believes that hero-worship is a natural and essential component of human civilization since it enables individuals to aspirationally adopt the traits of heroes in their own life. Carlyle, however, also criticizes the hero-worship of his own day, contending that it is wrong to admire ordinary public personalities and celebrities who lack truly heroic traits. He urges a return to genuine heroism and the social acceptance of the worth of moral and spiritual principles. The book "On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History" examines the nature of heroism and its impact on the course of human history. Many authors and intellectuals were greatly influenced by Carlyle's theories, which are being researched and discussed today.

"Sartor Resartus" is a satirical novel by Scottish author Thomas Carlyle. The book is divided into three sections, with the first section providing a biographical account of Teufelsdröckh's life and his philosophical ideas, which include a rejection of traditional morality and the importance of the individual's subjective experience. The second section explores the symbolism and meaning behind clothing and fashion, using it as a metaphor for the ways in which people construct their identities and relationships with the world. Finally, the third section, titled "The Everlasting No," addresses the idea of skepticism and doubt, arguing that questioning and rejecting established beliefs can lead to a more meaningful life. Throughout the book, Carlyle employs a complex and sometimes obscure writing style, incorporating elements of poetry, philosophy, and history, and often satirizing the conventions of traditional narrative. "Sartor Resartus" has been praised for its innovative form and challenging ideas.

According to Dahlmann, the Icelanders were and still are skilled writers and had strong writing habits during their long winters. Any history that does exist of the Norse Kings and their past tragedies, crimes, and acts of valor is virtually entirely owing to this circumstance. The Icelanders, it seems, not only created beautiful writing on their paper or parchment but were also admirably perceptive and eager for accuracy. As a result, they have left us with a collection of narratives known as the Sagas (literally, "Says") that is unmatched among barbarous peoples in terms of both quantity and quality.These ancient Sagas served as the foundation for Snorro Sturluson's History of the Norse Kings, which contains a great deal of poetic fire and faithful sagacity that was used to sort through and adjust the old Sagas. In short, the book deserves to be listed among the greatest histories of all time if it were ever properly edited and provided with accurate maps, chronological summaries, and other supporting materials.The following rough notes of the early Norway Kings are hastily put together based on these sources, with a great deal of assistance from accurate, knowledgeable, and unwearied Dahlmann, 1 the German Professor.
