. Carlyle's essay on Burns; . of English Litera-ture; Mintos Manual of English Prose Literature; MorleysCritical Miscellanies; Matthew Arnolds Discourses in America(the lecture on Emerson) ; and magazine articles in Pooles Indexto Periodical Literature. The student who wishes to go stilldeeper into what we may term Carlyleana will find a caiefuUyprepared list of critics and commentators, with full references, inVi^Glslis English 3Iasterpiece Course, pp. 190, 191. Among the critical commentaries, perhaps the most noteworthy is thatof Taine in his English Literature (Van Launs translation, , p. 436 et seq.). He gives Carlyle forty pages characterizedby keen insight, vivid imagination, and masterly eloquence ; yet,like everything of Taines, it is Frenchy : we feel that in Car-lyles soul there are depths which the great French critic neverpenetrated. For a just and intelligent estimate of the relationsthat existed between Carlyle and his wife see the work of theOliphants {The Victorian Age of English Literature).. 106 NOTES. ABBREVIATIONS.
