Annotated Bibliography for Crome Yellow by Aldous Huxley 1 Annotated Bibliography for Crome Yellow by Aldous Huxley Prepared by Keven Doan Note: There did not seem to be a large amount of recent articles and books that I could locate that directly addressed Crome Yellow, but many of the older (1960’s to 1990’s) works were quite helpful and gave ideas for possible directions to follow concerning the novel. Bowering, Peter. Aldous Huxley: a study of the major novels. distributed by Constable London, 1968. Print. This deals in part with the role of science in early 20th century novels of Aldous Huxley. New theories were being published and Huxley wanted to consider them all, even if he did not fully embrace them yet. Huxley does not treat scientific ideas as heavily as in his later novels. In fact, the author calls Crome Yellow Huxley’s “happiest novel.” Bowering also proposes that the characters represent various attitudes that Huxley wants to expose, and that he artfully does so with satirical wit and skill. (pp33-45.) Brander, Laurence. Aldous Huxley: A Critical Study. Lewisburg: Bucknell University Press. 1970. Print. This short article focuses on Huxley’s use of ideas in Crome Yellow that he was beginning to evaluate in his own life. The author calls this Huxley’s “world of ideas.” This is similar to what the author above mentions, so it might be a theme to pursue. Brander also sees the “lightness” of the novel and calls it a “gay little sketch.” (Like the author above and again providing a possible approach to try.) He believes the characters are caricatures of people who believe the ideas the characters are promoting by their dialog and sermonizing. He also mentions Huxley’s satirical approach. (pp 21-23.) Enroth, Clyde. “Mysticism in Two of Aldous Huxley’s Early Novels.” Twentieth Century Literature. Vol. 6, No. 3 (October 1960). pp 123-132. Web. This article takes a narrower view of Huxley’s intellectual development, focusing on his fascination with mysticism. Enroth says that mysticism is “much in evidence” in Huxley’s novels and is “well known and deplored on every side.” That it is deplored is debatable. The author of this essay proposes that contrary to the then (1960) popular view that Huxley was converted to mysticism, in Huxley’s early novels, including Crome Yellow, he was only “flirting” with mysticism and had not been converted yet. Enroth advances his argument by examining and comparing Crome Yellow with Antic Hay, which he says was written after Huxley was converted to mysticism. This is an interesting approach, but might be too narrow to pursue, as other reference works in the same vein might be hard to locate. Firchow, Peter. Aldous Huxley: satirist and novelist. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota 2 Press, 1972. Print. Peter Firchow provides a nice analysis of several of Huxley’s novels including Crome Yellow. Of particular interest are his references to contemporary (to Huxley) reviews and comments about Aldous Huxley in general and Crome Yellow in particular. Notice T.S. Eliot’s comment on page 58 where he believes that real public figures were used by Huxley as models for his characters. He even gives specific examples, although some are not well known today. This further advances the theme that Huxley was a skilled satirist, and might be a fun approach to analyze the novel. (pp 52-58.) Henderson, Alexander. Aldous Huxley. New York: Russell & Russell, 1964. Print. This author focuses more on Huxley’s style and technique, rather than an analysis of the text itself. Henderson relates Huxley’s ongoing growth and development as a writer, describing Huxley’s “developing skills.” Of particular interest is the theme of Huxley’s enthusiasm for psychology. Henderson says that Huxley was “fascinated by human beings.” He focuses on Huxley’s technique and acuteness of psychological description. This is a common thread in the analysis of Huxley that I found in these references: his psychological insight combined with his satirical skill. (pp 52-58.) Holmes, Charles M. Aldous Huxley and the way to reality. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1970. Print. Charles Holmes agrees with the thought that Huxley used the attitudes of the different characters who have gathered at Crome Yellow to portray the real attitudes of people in that era and country. Holmes calls this “juxtaposition of approaches and attitudes to life” a pattern that Huxley carries on through his later novels, and traces Huxley’s development as a writer. He says the novel is “not serious,” which concurs with several other writers in this list. One interesting addition to the idea that Huxley used real people as models for his characters is where Holmes says that the character of the ineffectual poet Denis is actually a projection of Aldous Huxley himself! This is interesting, but this is the only place I found this thought. Perhaps with further research it might be an analytical theme to follow. Meckier, Jerome. “Aldous Huxley: Satire and Structure.” Wisconsin Studies in Contemporary Literature. Vol. 7, No. 3 (Autumn, 1966), pp 284-294. Web. Meckier says that Aldous Huxley characterizes many of his characters as escapists and eccentrics, which seems to be the case in Crome Yellow. The author of this essay sees Huxley as continuously presenting society as “a collection of parallel lines, none of which ever cross.” This meshes with the idea that Huxley was considering many philosophical avenues for his own philosophy of life when he wrote Crome Yellow. Meckier analyzes several characters in Crome Yellow, contrasting and comparing them with characters from several other of Huxley’s novels. He says that Huxley’s novels are full of eccentrics whose egoism is the target of his satire. 3 Paulsell, Sally A. “Color and Light: Huxley’s Pathway to Spiritual Reality.” Twentieth Century Literature. Vol. 41, No. 1 (Spring, 1995), pp 81-107. Web. Author Paulsell deals with Huxley’s lifetime search for ultimate reality, revealed to him through color and light. She calls it a “conscious-expanding search for ultimate reality.” According to the author, Huxley’s struggle to believe in the Divine Light can be traced as early as 1922 in his first novel Crome Yellow. The article references a lecture Huxley gave in 1959 where he discussed our (human) fascination with precious stones. Huxley traces this fascination back to Socrates and Plato. This takes a bit heavier approach than the other references but might be a nice theme to pursue since Huxley’s lifelong search seems a recurring idea. Sion, Ronald T. Aldous Huxley and the search for meaning: a study of the eleven novels. Jefferson, NC: McFarland & Co. 2010. Print. This recent work does a nice job of combining analysis of the novels with an examination of Huxley’s own search for meaning and truth. He uses Huxley’s own letters, essays and interviews into the analysis of each text, Crome Yellow being the first. The way Sion traces Huxley’s own intellectual development and how it affected the novel he was writing at the time is quite helpful and interesting. Sion also believes that Crome Yellow was intended as satire. An interesting addition is Sion’s description of the popular and critical aftermath when the novel was published. (pp21-30.) Watt, Donald, ed. Aldous Huxley, the critical heritage. London; Boston: Routledge & K. Paul. 1975. Print. This is a collection of critical essays on Aldous Huxley and his works. There are several concerning Crome Yellow, some of which are contemporary with Huxley. One that immediately drew my attention was one by F. Scott Fitzgerald. His non-academic approach and language is quite pleasing. Fitzgerald says that Crome Yellow will “infuriate those who take anything seriously,” which reinforces the common thought in these references that Huxley intended Crome Yellow to be satire. Fitzgerald, however, takes a twist on the satire approach and suggests that Huxley was even providing a satire on satire, stating that Crome Yellow “mocks at mockery.” (pp58-76.) .

  • The Neo-Vedanta Philosophy of Swami Vivekananda
    VEDA’S JOURNAL OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE (JOELL) Vol.6 Issue 4 An International Peer Reviewed (Refereed) Journal 2019 Impact Factor (SJIF) 4.092 http://www.joell.in RESEARCH ARTICLE THE NEO-VEDANTA PHILOSOPHY OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA Tania Baloria (Ph.D Research Scholar, Jaipur National University, Jagatpura, Jaipur.) doi: https://doi.org/10.33329/joell.64.19.108 ABSTRACT This paper aims to evaluate the interpretation of Swami Vivekananda‘s Neo-Vedanta philosophy.Vedanta is the philosophy of Vedas, those Indian scriptures which are the most ancient religious writings now known to the world. It is the philosophy of the self. And the self is unchangeable. It cannot be called old self and new self because it is changeless and ultimate. So the theory is also changeless. Neo- Vedanta is just like the traditional Vedanta interpreted with the perspective of modern man and applied in practical-life. By the Neo-Vedanta of Swami Vivekananda is meant the New-Vedanta as distinguished from the old traditional Vedanta developed by Sankaracharya (c.788 820AD). Neo-Vedantism is a re- establishment and reinterpretation Of the Advaita Vedanta of Sankara with modern arguments, in modern language, suited to modern man, adjusting it with all the modern challenges. In the later nineteenth century and early twentieth century many masters used Vedanta philosophy for human welfare. Some of them were Rajarammohan Roy, Swami DayanandaSaraswati, Sri CattampiSwamikal, Sri Narayana Guru, Rabindranath Tagore, Mahatma Gandhi, Sri Aurobindo, and Ramana Maharsi.

  • Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non- Medical Contexts
    Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non- Medical Contexts by Hannah Rae Kirk A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Biology (Honors Scholar) Presented May 23, 2018 Commencement June 2018 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Hannah Rae Kirk for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Biology presented on May 23, 2018. Title: Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non-Medical Contexts. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Robin Pappas Psychedelics and entheogens began as religious sacraments. They were apotheosized for their mind-expanding powers and were thought to open realms to the world of the Gods. It was not until the first psychedelic compound was discovered in a laboratory setting a mere hundred years ago that they entered into formal scientific study. Although they were initially well-received in academic and professional circles, research into their potential was interrupted when they were made illegal. Only recently have scientists renewed the investigation of psychedelic substances, in the hope of demonstrating their potential in understanding and healing the human mind. This thesis will explore the history of psychedelics and entheogens, consider the causes behind the prohibition of their research, and outline their reintroduction into current scientific research. Psychedelic compounds have proven to be magnifiers of the mind and, under appropriate circumstances, can act as medicaments in both therapeutic and non-medical contexts. By exploring the journey of psychedelic substances from sacraments, to therapeutic aids, to dangerous drugs, and back again, this thesis will highlight what is at stake when politics and misinformation suppresses scientific research.

  • As Late As 1929, Aldous Huxley Had No Interest in and Even No Sympathy for Utopian Or Futuristic Fiction
    CHAPTER ONE AROUND THE WORLD IN 264 DAYS As late as 1929, Aldous Huxley had no interest in and even no sympathy for utopian or futuristic fiction. In “Spinoza’s Worm”, an essay whose images and examples he would repeat a number of times, he dismissed it, commenting: My own feeling, whenever I see a book about the Future, is one of boredom and exasperation. What on earth is the point of troubling one’s head with speculation about what men may, but almost certainly will not, be like in A. D. 20,000?1 Earlier in Those Barren Leaves (1925), his character Chelifer dismisses Utopia as a state of total boredom: … in the Utopian state where everybody is well-off, educated and leisured, everybody will be bored; unless for some obscure reason the same causes fail to produce the same effects. Only two or three hundred people out of every million could survive a lifetime in a really efficient Utopian state. The rest would simply die of spleen.2 These words cut ironically across his career, because in 1929 he was but two years away from writing Brave New World, thus creating the best known, most studied, most censored, and most discussed utopian world of the twentieth century. Since the book’s publication in 1932, its British and American publishers have printed over ten million paperback copies. Although Huxley did not recognize it in 1929, he had already gathered most of the materials that would go into the making of Brave New World. From the time he and Maria sailed aboard the S.S.

  • Mysticism and Pacifism
    Chapter 4 Mysticism and Pacifism Huxley’s mystical turn in the mid-1930s was intimately associated with paci- fism, and his pacifist convictions were reinforced by the mystical philosophy of Gerald Heard and Jiddu Krishnamurti. As noted in Chapter 1, Huxley’s involve- ment with Ottoline Morrell and the Garsington set during World War i had led him to adopt a pacifist position, and the rise of Mussolini and Hitler and the imperial tensions of the 1930s had done nothing to change his mind. His disparaging article “What Gandhi Fails to See” (1930), would seem to contradict this statement, but Huxley was not objecting to Gandhi as a pacifist but as an “ascetic salvationist” whose spirituality blinded him to inconvenient facts, such as the “distressingly easy passage from non-violence to violence”,1 or the fact that reverting to a pre-industrial civilisation, as Gandhi was advocating, would entail the “death by starvation of millions upon millions of human be- ings” (in other words, the exponential increase in population made possible by industrialisation).2 Huxley’s interest in mysticism had been dampened by his trip to India and south-east Asia in 1925–26. In the article, Gandhi is pilloried as a representative of the kind of Hindu spirituality that Huxley had deplored in Jesting Pilate (1926): “To my mind ‘spirituality’ […] is the primal curse of India and the cause of all her misfortunes. […] A little less spirituality and the Indians would now be free – free from foreign dominion and from the tyranny of their own prejudices and traditions”.3 But as the 1930s progressed, Huxley was compelled by personal circumstances to re-evaluate his opinion of both Gandhi and mysticism and by 1936 he was publicly advocating satyagraha and practising meditation with Gerald Heard and members of the Peace Pledge Union (ppu).

  • The Thought of Aldous Huxley M
    The Thought of Aldous Huxley M. M. Kirkwood University of Toronto Quarterly, Volume 6, Number 2, January 1937, pp. 189-198 (Article) Published by University of Toronto Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/549974 [ Access provided at 12 Oct 2020 10:12 GMT from USP-Universidade de São Paulo ] THE THOUGHT OF ALDOUS HUXLEY M. M . KIRKWOOD N an article which appeared in the London Mercury of January, 1933, G. K. Chesterton placed Huxley I among the young moderns whom he attacked as "witty, brilliant and fashionable bankrupts." This view of Huxley in particular has been a common one, for brilliance and wit animate whatever he writes, and, having written for a world that wanted to be amused, he has become fashionable. Mr. Chester to ~' understood him merely to mock, as one having no religious belief and seeing no purpose in the world or in the will. Whether this be a real aspe.ct of his work or not, readers have not found it easy to resist a writer who remarks in connection wi th one of his characters that "no chameleon can live with comfort on a tartan," and who concludes his descrip­ tion of his own agonie,s during a first ride on an elephant with the comment, "I returned full of admiration for Hannibal. He crossed the Alps on an elephant." Numerous quips by Huxley include the statement that "Puritans like to wear the fig-leaf over the mouth," while in a serious essay on the evolution of theologies, he uses the astonishing figure, "Men's religious life works on the principle of a hot-water system." Huxley's voca bulary is no less en tertaining than his figures of coml?arison, and we find ourselves stimulated if not always illuminated by "minusculous" and "callipygous," "wamblingly" and "bombinating," "geodesic" and "mixo­ Iydian." It is as if the creator of "brillig" and "slithy toves" had come to life again, challenging us to under­ stand as well as to enjoy him.

  • About Pythagoras, Problem Solving, 1981, 071 3 (5/6), 1–11
    Revised version of: The “truth” about Pythagoras, Problem Solving, 1981, 071 3 (5/6), 1–11. How Did Pythagoras Do It? Although geometry had been my favorite subject in high school, and in 1937 I was nearly halfway to a never finished doctorate in mathematics, no one had ever told me that Pythagoras had probably proved his theorem (if, indeed, it was he who proved it) by an intuitively much more convincing method than the algebraic development we had been taught in school. I happened upon that revelation in “Young Archimedes”, a short story by Aldous Huxley, which, unlike algebra, made an indelible impression on me.1 I found it once more in print 40 years later in Ackermann’s Theories of Knowledge.2 Seeing it neatly drawn in black and white helped me formulate a question from my vague feeling of wonder: How could Pythagoras ever have thought of that proof if he didn’t already have an idea of what he wanted to prove? It’s plausible that, in some context or other (or even just doodling) one might draw a square and place two crossed perpendiculars in it, so that the area is divided into two equal rectangles and two unequal squares. It’s also conceivable that one might add diagonals to each of the rectangles, still without the presupposition of any particular plan (Fig.1). Then. however, to draw a second square and to arrange the four triangles in the particular way necessary to prove a theorem one does not yet know (Fig.2)—that is something that seems very unlikely to be purely fortuitous.

  • Brave New World Mindless Hedonism ALDOUS HUXLEY and Consumerism Chatto & Windus: 1932
    COMMENT BOOKS & ARTS by eugenics, drugs, Brave New World mindless hedonism ALDOUS HUXLEY and consumerism Chatto & Windus: 1932. seemed to scorn that rosy view. Although it was lauded by some, including the logician and anti-war activist Bertrand Russell, the science boosters felt that Huxley had let the side down. Nature’s reviewer at the time of publication sniffed that “biology is itself too surprising to be really amus- COLLECTION/ALAMY CSU ARCHIVES/EVERETT ing material for fiction”. That reviewer was Charlotte Haldane, whose then husband, the geneticist J. B. S. Haldane, was not averse to predicting the future himself — but in a more optimistic vein. Gradually, as the star of science waned in the nuclear shadow of Hiroshima and the cold war, Brave New World came to be seen as prophetic. But although its status as a clas- sic of twentieth-century literature is rightly secure, what it says about technological development is too often misconstrued. FEARS FOR THE FUTURE Huxley’s brave new world leaned heavily on the technologies that Haldane had forecast in his essay Daedalus, or Science and the Future (1924), particularly the idea of ectogenesis — the gestation of embryos and fetuses in artificial containers. For Haldane, this was a eugenic technique that could improve the human race — as his friend and Aldous’s brother, the evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley, also believed. Aldous here, as else- where, sided with Russell, who had warned, “I am compelled to fear that science will be used to promote the power of dominant groups, rather than to make men happy.” In a 1932 article, biochemist and Sinophile Joseph Needham described Brave New World as a note-perfect realization of Russell’s concerns.

  • Gregory Rich Aldous Huxley Characterized Time Must Have A
    “Life After Death in Huxley’s Time Must Have a Stop ” Gregory Rich Aldous Huxley characterized Time Must Have a Stop as “a piece of the Comedie Humaine that modulates into a version of the Divina Commedia ” (qtd. in Woodcock 229). To be sure, some of the dialogue includes good-natured banter, frivolous wit, and self-deprecating humor. But some of the human comedy goes further and satirizes human imperfections. For instance, the novel portrays a “jaded pasha” ( Time 67), most interested in his own pleasure, a pretentious scholarly man who talks too much ( Time 79), and a beautiful young woman who believes that the essence of life is “pure shamelessness” and lives accordingly ( Time 128). Some of the novel’s comedy is darkly pessimistic. For example, there are references to the cosmic joke of good intentions leading to disaster ( Time 194). And there are sarcastic indictments of religion, science, politics, and education ( Time 163-64). In the middle of the novel, when one of the main characters dies, the scene shifts to an after-life realm, to something like a divine-comedy realm. Both Dante’s Divine Comedy and Huxley’s Time Must Have a Stop depict an after-death realm but provide different descriptions of it. In Dante’s book, a living man takes a guided tour of hell and sees the punishments that 2 have been divinely assigned for various serious sins. In contrast, Huxley’s book depicts the experiences of a man after he has died. He seems to be in some kind of dream world, where there is no regular succession of time or fixed sense of place ( Time 222).

  • Jerom E Meckier CANCER in UTOPIA: POSITIVE and NEGATIVE ELEMENTS in HUXLEY's ISLAND Fur Years Aldous Huxley Regarded Utopians Wi
    Jerome Meckier CANCER IN UTOPIA: POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ELEMENTS IN HUXLEY'S ISLAND Fur years Aldous Huxley regarded utopians with disfavor. Their countries of the mind were compensatory dreams inspired by acute disappointment with reality. "My own feeling, whenever I see a book about the Future," Huxley wrote in Do What Y vu Will," is one of boredom and exasperation. What on earth is the point of troubling one's head with speculations about what men may, but almost certainly will not, be like in A.D. 20,000?" Despite the disclaimer, Huxley could not resist troubling his head about the future. The struggle between utopian and dyst opian elements in his prophecies about the world to come remained a pervasive counterpoint in his thought and art. When Island appeared in 1962, Huxley's version of the earthly paradise received harsh treatment from readers whom Brave New World and Ape and Essence had taught to be sceptical of perfectibilitarians. Yet Island was not just another pious daydream. I have argued previously1 that the novel embodies a collection of the right responses to problems that the brave new world handled badly. But there is even more to the novel than that. Unlike News f rom Nowhere, Looking Backward, and other positive views of the future, Island can be defended as· a reasonably complex novel in which a would-be utopian's attempt at optimism is challenged by the possibility that his characters inhabit a Manichean universe. If evil exists even in the earthly paradise, then utopia as one customarily imagines it is an impossibility, unless one can redefine one's conception of perfection so as to include the negative factors that appear to compromise it.

Aldous Huxley- young adult authorBy Christopher (o.d.c.)Publication date: 1921Huxley's first novel, written in imitation of such books as Headlong Hall and South Wind.A country visit is the occasion for the wine and conversation to flow freely- thus, the fledgling poet Denis, the older intellectual, Scogan, somewhat past his prime, Wimbush, the antiquarian, who has some pretty entertaining accounts of his ancestors (really just short stories- like many a first novel, it has the flavor of a "Collected Works.")I'd even call it a 'young adult' novel, insofar as the protagonist, Denis, is preoccupied with his lack of success with women. Of course, it would be for young adults studying for their SATs- I counted five 'SAT words' in one sentence at one point:"... For the sake of peace and quiet Denis had retired earlier on this same afternoon to his bedroom. He wanted to work, but the hour was a drowsy one, and lunch, so recently eaten, weighed heavily on body and mind. The *meridian* demon was upon him; he was possessed by that bored and hopeless *post-prandial* melancholy which the *coenobites* of old knew and feared under the name of "accidie."(Note that he solves the problem with something unavailable to the 'coenobites of old,' namely gin.)My favorite 'set piece' in this assemblage of set pieces, one I remember well from twenty years ago, is Denis explaining to Scogan how poetical and marvelous the word 'carminative' seemed until, using it in a poem, he has to look up the meaning."..
