About this book
"Sartor Resartus: The Life and Opinions of Herr Teufelsdröckh" by Thomas Carlyle is a novel first serialized between 1833-1834. A skeptical English Editor attempts to review a bewildering German philosophy book about clothes by the fictional Professor Diogenes Teufelsdröckh. When the Editor requests biographical information to make sense of the philosopher's Transcendentalist musings, he receives only bags of paper scraps. The work parodies German idealism through fragmentary narrative and increasingly exasperated commentary, blending satire with philosophical meditation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
