  • Pledging Peace in Aldous Huxley's Eyeless in Gaza
    109 Pledging Peace in Aldous Huxley’s Eyeless in Gaza Charles Andrews Whitworth University Nineteen thirty-six was a pivotal year for Aldous Huxley. Much of his en- ergy prior to this year was spent writing the satirical novels upon which his reputation still rests, including Crome Yellow (1921), Point Counter Point (1928), and Brave New World (1932). Huxley produced many of his nearly fifty books under contractual obligations to write two or even three books per year, a pace that seemed to cause him little concern. Yet Eyeless in Gaza, his under-read masterpiece, took four years to complete. Begun in 1932, published in 1936, Eyeless is in most ways typical of Huxley’s fiction—eru- dite, philosophical, and semi-autobiographical. His title alludes to Milton’s Samson Agonistes, and his characters each take competing positions on the issues most important to Huxley and his cohort of artists and intellectuals: human relations, mystical spirituality, and radical politics. Eyeless in Gaza also shows off some of Huxley’s most formally adventurous writing, par- ticularly with regard to narrative chronology. Each of the novel’s fifty-four chapters is set on a specific day between November 6, 1902 and February 23, 1935. Lacking any readily discernible regular pattern, the chapters jump back and forth within this thirty-three year range. The earliest dates show our main character Anthony Beavis as a young boy at his mother’s funeral, by the 1910s we see him at Oxford, by the 1920s Anthony is a struggling writer, and by the 1930s he is in a love affair with Helen, is briefly involved in a Mexican revolution, and ultimately converts to pacifism.

  • Aldous Huxley” in Connection with His Landmark 1932 Novel
    Introduction by David Garrett Izzo Life, Work, Thought Many people know the name “Aldous Huxley” in connection with his landmark 1932 novel, Brave New World . Few know much more than this and that at one time Huxley was one of the most revered and respected figures in 20 th century literature and philosophy. An irony of his present neglect can be found by noting that the day he died—22 November 1963—was the day John F. Kennedy was murdered; hence, Huxley’s passing was ignored. On any other day, his death would have likely been acknowledged with front-page articles and a retrospective of his life and work. The highlight of this work, Brave New World , is often selected as one of the greatest novels in all of literature, but there was much, much more to Huxley as a writer, philosopher, and influence. There is not a writer who came after Huxley that does not owe to him directly or indirectly the new tangent in the history of the novel that his work impelled. There is not a person who learned about Eastern philosophy in the 1960s that is not directly or indirectly indebted to Huxley the philosopher. Anyone who admires the philosophy of Horkheimer and Adorno, particularly their essay, “The Culture Industry,” is actually influenced by Huxley, as these two German refugees from Hitler have said that their ideas came from Huxley. There is an academic Aldous Huxley Society with a home base in Muenster, Germany that does appreciate his impact on our world and spreads the gospel of Huxley through a book length Huxley Annual and a conference every year so that he will not be forgotten.

Cite this article: Dwikat, K. & Al-Khawaldeh, S. (2020). Aldous Huxley: When to Be Brave and New Is not Enough. International Journal of Liberal Arts and Social Science, 8(10), 7-20. 7 International Journal of Liberal Arts and Social Science ISSN: 2307-924X www.ijlass.org Abstract As a modernist self-exiled intellectual, Huxley composes dystopian Sci-Fi Brave New World (1932), a novel that sketches in a Juvenalian mode a gruesome portrait of the future to satirize the present of modern Western civilization. Written during a period of unparalleled instability in the Western world, the novel comes as a prophecy of a future where man‟s final purpose of life becomes irrelevant; where violence, power, science, progress and technology are forces that rule, manipulate and distract the human race; the race that has already lost touch with its “perennial self” and the unitive knowledge of the “Divine Ground of all being”. This article aims at reading Huxley‟s novel via the lens of his philosophical writings mainly, The Perennial Philosophy (1945), and to present Huxley as the intellectual who advocates the necessity of bridging the gap between science and religio-philosophy.

J REASON IN RETREAT: THE NOVELS OF ALDOUS HUXLEY by Elizabeth Anne McGra~h, B.A. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts, Memorial University of Newfoundland, 7 April 1961. ii This thesis has been examined and approved by: ABSTRACT Aldous Huxley has been writing on all topics and in most literary genres since 1916. He is particularly well known for his essays and for his novels, which are the satirical classics of the twentieth century. But Huxley the novelist has yet to be definitively placed in literary history. He enjoyed considerable eclat~ in the twenties and thirties and his elegant satires, Crome Yellow (1921) and Antic Hay (1923), both shocked and delighted the young and almost young generation. His later novels shocked too, but for a different reason. Huxley had been considered the typical disappointed rationalist and aesthete of the post -war era. With the publication of Eyeless in Gaza (1936) it became clear that rationalism and aestheticism had,as far as Huxley was concerned, had their day, and for him, at least, the way of the mystic offered greater intellectual and moral rewards. Co-incid,ent with this change _in attitude came a change in Huxley's satirical technique.

  • 1 David Izzo 1. Life, Art, Thought There Is Not a Writer Who Came After
    David Izzo 1. Life, Art, Thought There is not a writer who came after Aldous Huxley that does not owe to him directly or indirectly the new tangent in the history of the novel that his work impelled. 1928’s Point Counter Point was the surging impetus for this influence. In 1928 his fourth novel made Huxley an international sensation, even if today it is 1932’s Brave New World for which he is chiefly remembered; yet, there was so much more than just Brave New World, and Point Counter Point. Today, there is not a person who learned about Eastern philosophy in the 1960s that is not directly or indirectly indebted to Huxley the philosopher. Anyone who admires the philosophy of Horkheimer and Adorno, particularly their essay, “The Culture Industry,” is actually influenced by Huxley, as these two German refugees from Hitler have said that their ideas came from Huxley. There is an academic Aldous Huxley Society with a home base in Muenster, Germany that does appreciate his impact on our world and spreads the gospel of Huxley through a book length Huxley Annual and a conference every year so that he will not be forgotten. His friend and fellow philosopher, Gerald Heard, called Huxley, “The Poignant Prophet” (101), and he was certainly a godfather of the New Age. With all of his accomplishments, perhaps the most enduring was how endearing he was to those who knew him and adored his wit, his kindness, and, finally, his profound humanity. Aldous Leonard Huxley was born on 26 July 1894 to Leonard Huxley and Julia Francis Arnold Huxley.

    ABST.RA.CT OF A DISSERTATION ON SELECTED ROVELS OF ALDOUS HUXLEY "Brave NewWorld - Revisited and Revisited" Edward-Peter FitzSimmons In 1931 Aldous Huxley created in bis novel Brave NewWorld a comic exaggeration of the social and technological utopias that promised peace and plenty, happiness and harmony in the future. He made sport of the mi.nd1ess products of a controlled society. The horror o:f the reality produced by the totalitarian states in the 1930' s, and the unspeakable shock of the bombs of 1945 led Huxley to re-examine his book in 1947 and at several other ti.mes until his death in 1963. He :found as we do that the comic prophecies made in 1931 have rapid1y become the gr.im realities o:f the present.

  • THE PSYCHEDELIC REVIEW I Editorials Said, "To Have Been
    THE PSYCHEDELIC REVIEW I Editorials said, "to have been concerned with the human problem all one's life and find at tile end that one has no more to offer by way of advice than 'Try to be a little kinder.'" If, as he had earlier remarked, the ALDOUS HUXLEY--A TRIBUTE central technique for man to learn is "the art of obtaining freedom from tile ftmdamental human disability of egoism," Huxley achieved Huston Smith that freedom. But this wasn't his supreme achievenlent, for his personal WHEN ALDOUSHUXLEY was at M.I.T. in the fall of 1960, problem was never pride so nmch as pessimism--"tomorrow, and giving lectures which drew listeners so heavily that they jammed tomorrow, and tomorrow, creeps in this pretty pace from day to traific all the way across the Charles River into Boston, I once spoke day." His final victory, therefore, lay not in emerging selfless but of those crowds as a tribute. "It's because I've been around so in winning through to equaninfity, to evenness of spirit and a general- long," he replied. "I've become like Queen Anne's Cottage. If I ized good-cheer. Thereby the line he used to close his best novel be- live to be a hundred I shall be like Stonehenge." conies the appropriate epitaph for his own life-story: "Of such is He didn't live to be a hundred, and the world is the loser, the Kingdom of Heaven." Said this time without sarcasm. Most obviously, it has lost an encyclopedic intelligence.
