Produktbeschreibung
In Samuel Smiles' book, 'Character', the author discusses the importance of cultivating positive character traits such as perseverance, integrity, and self-discipline. Written in a didactic and philosophical style, this book serves as a guide for individuals seeking to improve themselves morally and ethically. Smiles delves into the literary context of self-help literature, drawing inspiration from the moral teachings of classical philosophers and contemporary thinkers. Through anecdotes and examples, Smiles illustrates how personal character can lead to success and happiness in life. The book emphasizes the idea that one's character is ultimately their destiny and highlights the role of individual agency in shaping one's future. Samuel Smiles, a Scottish author and reformer, was known for his works promoting self-improvement and personal responsibility. Influenced by the Victorian era's emphasis on moral rectitude, Smiles sought to inspire his readers to lead virtuous lives through his writings. 'Character' reflects Smiles' belief in the transformative power of individual character and the importance of virtuous conduct in society. I recommend 'Character' to readers interested in self-help literature and moral philosophy. Smiles' timeless insights on character development and personal ethics are relevant in today's world, where the pursuit of success often overshadows the importance of integrity and moral values.

Autorenporträt
Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) was a Scottish author and government reformer, known for his promotion of self-help and individual responsibility, as hallmarks for personal and social improvement. A key figure in Victorian moralism, his works extol the virtues of hard work, thrift, and perseverance. Smiles originally trained as a doctor and later transitioned into journalism and political activism, focusing on reformist causes. His seminal work, 'Self-Help' (1859), established him as a leading voice in self-improvement literature, advocating for the notion that individuals have the power to change their fortunes and society through personal effort. His later work, 'Character' (1871), continued this theme, delving into the ethical and moral qualities that he believed underpinned a successful and meaningful life. In 'Character', Smiles puts forth the argument that a well-developed character is the cornerstone of personal and professional success, and it is an essential ingredient in the formation of societal values. Smiles's literary style is didactic, using examples from biographies and history to illustrate his points, making his work both educational and inspirational. His writings have been influential in the fields of self-help and motivational literature, and his philosophies resonate in the modern culture of personal development. Despite criticism that his views overemphasized individualism at the expense of recognizing social and economic barriers, Smiles's impact on Victorian thought and his contribution to the genre of self-help literature is undeniable.
