Koncepcja „czwartego stanu” Edmunda Burke’a podana przez Thomasa Carlyle’a. Refleksje o polityce i komunikowaniu

Concept of “fourth estate” of Edmund Burke by Thomas Carlyle. Afterthought about politics and communication Since 19th century, we have been speaking about speeches of Edmund Burke, about his concept of “fourth estate”. Scientists and politics still are discussing about speeches of Burke, did he say, or didn’t say “fourth estate”. I looked differently, in article, I consider political thought of Thomas Carlyle. Political writer from Scotland quoted a speech of Burke in essay ‘On Heroes’. I present reception idea of “fourth estete” to political thought of Carlyle. I consider, why did Carlyle write, not why didn’t Burke say? Burke and Carlyle lived in different a historical time, but like a political time. Moreover, I analyze speech of Burke, his a langue and a matter; and in finally, I compare political thought of Burke and Carlyle.
