Thomas Carlyle Comments

Gerard Fox 07 July 2013

Just watched a tv documentary about Thomas Carlyle's trip to Ireland in 1845 during the Irish Famine. His recorded comments about what he saw in Ireland during his trip are astonishing. His cold-heartedness towards men, women and children dying from hunger (in front of his very eyes) due to the Famine where the food left Ireland on a daily basis, heading to England. Carlyle-Historian-Essayist-Poet and Christian with no Christian values whatsoever! For further reading about the Famine through Carlyle's eyes 'Atlas of the Irish Famine'.
