EVERLASTING NO, THE

EVERLASTING NO, THE
   Carlyle's name for the spirit of unbelief in God, especially as it manifested itself in his own, or rather Teufelsdröckh's, warfare against it; the spirit, which, as embodied in the MEPHISTOPHELES (q.v.) of Goethe, is for ever denying, - der stets verneint - the reality of the divine in the thoughts, the character, and the life of humanity, and has a malicious pleasure in scoffing at everything high and noble as hollow and void.
   See SARTOR RESARTUS.
