Goethe and Carlyle are Illuminized:

Carlyle was actually an activist for good government on issues like education and the library system which he started, as well as the Corn Law legislation. I agree with Carlyle about a Hero being a better form of government to the cronyism we have and yet I know the Council of Six approach (with no authority or pay - reporting to voters, and helping develop model programs through panels and advisors) would work much better.

THOMAS CARLYLE: - A most secretive yet very public intellectual who authored much about history yet begrudged having to do this. His biographers have yet to figure out what the secret he kept from them was; even though some of them were close friends. I think the secret has to do with the likes of Goethe, they developed a great sense of admiration for each other. But it might be that Goethe of the Illuminati, actually was less connected to the true ruling body of our culture than Carlyle. His Swiftean influences seen in his book Sartor Restartus as well as the fact that his father was trained by a Mason, and they lived not far from the Templar involved ...
... Rosslyn Castle of the St. Clair or Sinclair family led me to believe he was a Hibernian like Nostradamus. Swift, Rabelais and others like Nostradamus would use Green Languages as part of the layered meaning or codes in their work.

He married above his head when he became betrothed to a descendant of John Knox who founded Presbyterian Churches which might well have more than a Calvinist element of controlling people or managing society. He was a good person and did great work to educate the masses with his support of creating a Public Library. Those who suggest he was a forerunner of Nazism because of his desire to see a strong leader are missing the boat as I see it. There is nothing wrong with his concept of a beneficent leader who has near-to-total dictatorial power when it is compared with the lobbying cronyism of our so-called democratic systems. But he never saw a man who could be as good a leader (Peel for a while) as he would want to see in this role. I believe he genuinely wished for improvement and compassion between all life on earth. I do not accept the theory that he beat his wife as what he said was a secret which would render all biographies about him rather useless.

One of his students by the name of John Ruskin inculcated the Illuminati principles in Cecil Rhodes whose influence and power is a blight upon humanity to this day - so I could be wrong about him being as good as I think. In fact Rhodes and Hitler both had what some think is a daemonic event that made them (like Napoleon) into the men they became. I think the use of esoteric or occult possession techniques was involved by those who sought to control these men but I see little evidence that Carlyle was one who developed these techniques - so if he was part of it - he was also a mere tool for them.

I offer you a Mason talking about Goethe as one of his own but I remind you the Masons say they killed or expunged the Illuminati once they found out the real nature of the Illuminati. In this piece I have chosen something that says Goethe's works were a ‘confession' and if you have understood Faust you will know that Asmodeus is there. I suspect Goethe was a member of a Freemasonic Order of the Golden Centurion. Who was Goethe? Carlyle called him the ‘Universal Man' and with good reason. Lyric poet, novelist, draughtsman, playwright, translator, actor, theatre manager, minister of state, administrator, geologist, botanist, anatomist, philosopher, critic, lover-and with all this he is known to the world today by his "Faust" which, for all its profundity, remains for many people inaccessible and by his poetry which is in some of its best aspects untranslatable. His plays are seldom performed outside Germany yet he was a genius and this is without dispute. Goethe's life matters more for the understanding of his works than does the life of most authors, since he himself was particularly conscious of the connection between the two. ‘All my works,' he said on one occasion, ‘were fragments of a great confession.'
