Sartor Resartus by Thomas Carlyle (published 1836) is a philosophical novel that explores the nature of human existence, society, and faith through a satirical and symbolic narrative. The book presents itself as an editor's commentary on the life and writings of a fictional German philosopher, Diogenes Teufelsdröckh, author of "Clothes: Their Origin and Influence." Through Teufelsdröckh's reflections, Carlyle uses the metaphor of clothing to discuss how outward appearances-social customs, institutions, and materialism-hide the deeper spiritual truths of life. The story moves from irony and skepticism to a spiritual awakening, expressing Carlyle's belief in the importance of inner transformation, work, and faith in an age losing its spiritual direction. In essence, Sartor Resartus ("The Tailor Retailored") is both a satire of German idealism and a profound meditation on how individuals can find meaning and faith amid modern uncertainty.
