Excerpt from Thomas Carlyle's Moral and Religious Development; A Study: From the German
In a letter to Dr. Fliigel from Mr. Froude, he says: Your admirable little book is the first sign I have seen of an independent and clear insight into Carlyle's life, work and character, as it will one day be universally recognised by all mankind. Leaving out Goethe, Carlyle was indisputably the greatest man (if you measure greatness by the permanent effect he has and will produce on the mind of mankind) who has ap peared in Europe for centuries. You have seen into this and know to appreciate it. His charac ter was as remarkable as his intellect. There has been no man at all, not Goethe himself, who in thought and action was so consistently true to his noblest instincts.

Excerpt from Sir Philip Sidney: Habilitationsschrift Durch Welche mit Zustimmung der Philosophischen Facultät der Universität Leipzig zu Seiner Dienstag den 30. October 1888
Dass Philip Sidney sich mit Astronomie beschaftigt hatte, wird ihm wol besonders zu gute gekommen sein bei seinem späteren Ver kehr mit Giordano Bruno. Seine Hauptstudien aber, wie seine Haupt interessen galten der Geschichte und der Philosophie. 3 Denn, wenn ihm die Geschichte als künftigem Staatsmann unentbehrlich war, so strebte er doch seine Lebensführung gleichsam wissenschaftlich zu begründen. 4 Von den philosophischen Autoren ist es entschieden Plato 5 gewesen, den er am höchsten schätzte, aber auch damals in Italien vielgelesene Philosophen, wie Alexander Piccolomini Giraldi und Guazzo 6 scheint er gemeinsam mit seinem Freunde und Reise genossen Bryskett gelesen zu haben.

About the Book
Philosophy is the study of problems concerning matters as fundamental as existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. Pythagoras (c. 570–495 BC) is said to have coined the term. Philosophical methods were applied through questioning, critical discussion, rational arguments, and systematic presentations on questions like "Is it possible to know anything and to prove it?" Major areas in academic philosophy include metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, political philosophy, logic, philosophy of science, and the history of Western philosophy.

About the Book
Fairy tales, wonder tales, magic tales are a folklore genre taking the form of a short story that typically includes magical beings such as dragons, elves, fairies, giants, gnomes, goblins, griffins, mermaids, talking animals, trolls, unicorns, or witches. Generally, magic or enchantments are involved. Fairy tales are distinguished from legends, are mainly derived from European tradition and folk lore, and are generally children's literature. Mythology has a broader and older pedigree than fairy tales, dating back to ancient times in a number of European, African, Middle Eastern and Asian civilizations. Best known among these to Western audiences are Ancient Greek and Old Norse myths and legends. Generally, these myths and legends describe epic quests, journeys and interactions between human adventurers or heroes and god-like deities.
Also in this Book
A short story collection is a book that contains short stories written by a single author. It is distinguished from an anthology of fiction, which includes stories by more than one author.

He was born in Leipzig, the third son of Karl Alfred Felix and Pauline (Mencken) Flugel. His grandfather, Johann Gottfried Flugel (1788 - 1855), acquired a thorough knowledge of English during his Wanderjahre 1810-19 in America.
Home again in Leipzig, he was American consul, representative for northern Europe of the Smithsonian Institution, and author of a Complete Dictionary of the English and German . .. Languages (1830).
Education
He attended the Nikolaischule in Leipzig, studied at the universities of Freiburg and of his native city, and received the doctorate in 1885 for a dissertation on Thomas Carlyles Religise und Sittliche Entwicklung und Weltanschauung (1887), of which an English translation by Jessica Gilbert Tyler was published in 1891.
Career
Karl Alfred Felix Flugel (1820 - 1904) inherited his father's consular, Smithsonian, and lexical activities. He revised the dictionary as a Practical Dictionary of the English and German Languages (2 vols. , 1847) and, after it had gone through fifteen editions, replaced it with a Universal English-German and German-English Dictionary (1891; 1894) in three large volumes. One of Ewald's earliest tasks was to copy slips for this work.
Strangely enough, he found it difficult to master English, although in later life he spoke the language with idiomatic vigor and with scarcely a trace of his German origin.
During these years he was strongly influenced by Rudolf Hildebrand, whose contributions to the Grimm Wirterbuch served as models for Flugel's life-work.
In 1892, against the advice of Moses Coit Tyler and other American friends, he accepted the professorship of English philology in Leland Stanford, Junior, University. Disappointment at the slowness of promotion in Germany, strong American sympathies, and perhaps also a certain restlessness, effected the decision, which was in some ways rash.
Of his various publications the most important were an edition of Sir Philip Sidney's Astrophel and Stella and Defence of Poesie (1 vol. , 1889) and "Die Nord-amerikanische Literatur" (1907), which was published in R. P. Wolker's Geschichte der Englischen Literatur (II, 413-541).
Neither these nor any of his other studies was more than a respite from the great task to which with increasing devotion he dedicated his life.
This was a Chaucer dictionary, or rather an historical dictionary of the Chaucerian vocabulary, which he undertook at the instigation of Frederick James Furnivall and which had been originally projected as a cooperative enterprise.
As Flugel planned it, it would have filled five or six massive volumes and have set a new standard of lexicographical achievement in a limited field.
Flugel expected to finish the work in 1921. He was able to devote three days a week to it--days that began at 5:00 A. M. and closed late in the evening--and through the support of the Carnegie Institution of Washington he had the years 1904-07 entirely free for the lexicon, which, in Carlylean fashion, he alternately called his Schmerzenskind and his daily delight. But in Germany, in 1906, he suffered a sunstroke that for a while threatened his life, and heart disease developed soon thereafter.
Concealing his condition from everyone except his son Felix, he worked on, hoping to complete the manuscript before the final attack. Repeated entreaties to publish the dictionary in parts were parried, for he knew that time spent on the proofs would be irreparably lost for the manuscript.
He died three months after the outbreak of the European War of 1914-18 with his dictionary complete, subject to additions and revision, as far as "hewe. "
Quotations:
"No mere description can do justice to the dignity and amplitude of this work of scholarship, if it could have been completed and published. " [Tatlock and Kennedy, post, p. xii. ]
Personality
Friends in Europe and America mourned a great scholar and an admirable man.
Connections
In 1888 he married Helene Burckhardt of Magdeburg and became privatdocent at the University of Leipzig.
