「這就是死亡。唉!」——這是蘇格蘭哲學家、散文家和歷史學家托馬斯·卡萊爾的遺言,他於1881年的今天去世。圖中是一幅19世紀晚期由日本文部科學省製作的版畫,描繪了卡萊爾痛苦的神情。版畫上的文字大致翻譯為:「一隻狗打翻了桌上的燈,桌上放著卡萊爾多年來精心撰寫的重要手稿。他的手稿著火化為灰燼,卡萊爾也因此患上了抑鬱症(?)。最終,一切都還不錯。」 點擊此處查看更多描繪西方著名發明家和學者在危機時刻的系列作品:
"So, this is death. Well!" — the final words of the Scottish philosopher, essayist, and historian Thomas Carlyle, who died on this day in 1881. Pictured here is a late 19th-century print produced by the Japanese Department of Education showing Carlyle in a state of some distress. The writing in the print can roughly be translated as "A dog knocked over the lamp on the table which held Carlyle’s important papers on which he had worked for many years. His manuscript caught fire, turned to ash, and Carlyle became sick from depression(?). In the end, everything still turned out great."

Frederick II (German:
Friedrich; 24 January 1712 – 17 August 1786) was the third
Hohenzollern king, reigning over the
Kingdom of Prussia from 1740 until 1786.
[1]Frederick's achievements during his reign included his military victories, his reorganization of Prussian armies, his patronage of the Arts and the Enlightenment in Prussia, and his final success against great odds in the
Seven Years' War. He became known as
Frederick the Great (
Friedrich der Große) and was nicknamed
Der Alte Fritz ("Old
Fritz") by the Prussian people.
In his youth, Frederick was more interested in music and philosophy than the art of war. He defied his authoritarian father,
Frederick William I, and sought to run away with his best friend
Hans Hermann von Katte. They were caught at the border and King Frederick William I nearly executed his son for desertion. After being pardoned, he was forced to watch the official
beheading of Hans. Upon ascending to the Prussian throne, he attacked
Austria and claimed
Silesia during the
Silesian Wars, winning military acclaim for himself and
Prussia. Near the end of his life, Frederick physically connected most of his realm by conquering
Polish territories in the
First Partition of Poland. He was an influential military theorist whose analysis emerged from his extensive personal battlefield experience and covered issues of strategy, tactics, mobility and logistics.
Frederick was a proponent of
enlightened absolutism. He modernized the Prussian bureaucracy and civil service and pursued religious policies throughout his realm that ranged from tolerance to segregation.
[2] He reformed the judicial system and made it possible for men not of noble stock to become judges and senior bureaucrats; he also encouraged immigrants of various nationalities to come to Prussia. Some critics, however, point out his oppressive measures against conquered Polish subjects.
[3][4] Frederick supported arts and philosophers he favored, but at the same time enacted several laws censoring the press. Frederick is buried at his favorite residence,
Sanssouci in
Potsdam. Because he died childless, Frederick was succeeded by his nephew,
Frederick William II, son of his brother,
Augustus William.
Nearly all 19th century German historians made Frederick into a romantic model of a glorified warrior, praising his leadership, administrative efficiency, devotion to duty and success in building up Prussia to a leading role in Europe. Historian
Leopold von Rankewas unstinting in his praise of Frederick's "Heroic life, inspired by great ideas, filled with feats of arms...immortalized by the raising of the Prussian state to the rank of a power."
Johann Gustav Droysen was even more extolling.
[5] Frederick remained an admired historical figure through the
German Empire's crushing defeat in
First World War, and the Nazis glorified him as a great German leader pre-figuring Hitler, but his reputation became far less favorable in 1945 in both
East and
West Germany after the fall of the Nazi regime, largely due to his status as a favorite icon of the Nazis.

Frederick the Great disliked Jews, Poles, Russians and, when the mood took him, almost everyone else. In fact, the only creatures he loved were his dogs
