This book is intended to deal with substance rather than with form. But in estimating the work of a teacher who taught exclusively with the pen it would be perverse to disregard entirely the qualities of the writing which so penetrated and coloured the intellectual life of the Victorian age.' (Excerpt from Chapter 1)

reviewed Matthew Arnold on October 25, 2014 Matthew Arnold
As I expected from Ashton (having read her biographies of George Eliot and G.H. Lewes), this is an excellent biography, thorough and well-researched. The Carlyles had a famously unhappy marriage, and Ashton is sympathetic to both of them, yet objective, never taking sides; she understands Carlyle's tortured genius and neglect of his wife as well as Jane's self-pity and repressed talents and astutely shows how their difficult personalities interacted with each other as well as with their friends and family. I am now dying to get my hands on some of the Carlyles' letters, especially Jane's.
