| 520 | _a"Carlyle's Laugh and Other Surprises" by Thomas Wentworth Higginson is a collection of essays and sketches, likely written in the early 20th century. The work explores various literary and historical subjects, focusing on notable figures and topics in American literature. Through Higginson's personal anecdotes and reflections, the book delves into the nuances of different authors, particularly the essence of Thomas Carlyle as experienced by the author. The opening of the book establishes a personal connection between Higginson and the renowned author Thomas Carlyle, highlighting the striking quality of Carlyle's laugh, which Higginson describes as a revealing aspect of his character. The narrative recounts Higginson's initial reluctance to meet Carlyle, influenced by his perceived harsh demeanor, but upon their encounter, he discovers a warm, genuine side that contrasts with Carlyle's public image. This introduction sets the stage for a broader examination of literary personalities and cultural commentary, demonstrating how humor and humanity underlie the complexity of well-known figures in literature.
