Abstract
This book undertakes commencement of long overdue major reassessment of Carlyle’s works within a Scottish intellectual (literary and philosophical) context. As suggested by the title, it constitutes a response or rather supplement to Charles Frederick Harrold’s seminal study, Carlyle and German Thought: 1819-1834. Critically acclaimed since its publication in a number of reviews, for its rigour and insights into Carlyle's work up to 1834, Carlyle and Scottish Thought challengingly works within the disciplines of both literary criticism and philosophy, revealing some of the major underpinnings to Carlyle's thought in relation to Scottish philosophers such as David Hume, Thomas Reid, and Sir William Hamilton.
