    Signature

    Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894 22 November 1963) was an English writer and one of the most

    prominent members of the famousHuxley family. Best known for his novels including Brave New Worldand a

    wide-ranging output of essays, Huxley also edited the magazineOxford Poetry, and published short stories,

    poetry, travel writing, and film stories and scripts. Huxley spent the later part of his life in the United States,

    living in Los Angeles from 1937 until his death.

    Aldous Huxley was a humanistandpacifist, and he was latterly interested in spiritual subjects such

    as parapsychologyand philosophical mysticism.[1]He is also well known for advocating and

    taking psychedelics.

    By the end of his life Huxley was considered, in some academic circles, a leader of modern thought and an

    intellectual of the highest rank, and highly regarded as one of the most prominent explorers of visual

    communication and sight-related theories as well.[2]

    Aldous Huxley was born inGodalming, Surrey, UK, in 1894. He was the third son of the writer and

    schoolmasterLeonard Huxley and his first wife, Julia Arnold, who founded Prior's Field School. Julia was the

    niece of poet and critic Matthew Arnoldand the sister ofMrs. Humphrey Ward. Aldous was the grandson

    ofThomas Henry Huxley, the zoologist, agnostic and controversialist ("Darwin's Bulldog"). His brotherJulian

    Huxley and half-brotherAndrew Huxleyalso became outstanding biologists. Aldous had another brother, Noel

    Trevelyan (18911914), who committed suicide after a period ofclinical depression.[3]

    Huxley began his learning in his father's well-equipped botanical laboratory, then continued in a school named

    Hillside. His teacher was his mother who supervised him for several years until she became terminally ill. After

    Hillside, he was educated at Eton College. Huxley's mother died in 1908 when he was 14. In 1911, he suffered

    an illness (keratitis punctata) which "left [him] practically blind for two to three years".[4] Aldous's near-blindness

    disqualified him from service in the First World War. Once his eyesight recovered sufficiently, he was able to

    study English literature atBalliol College, Oxford. In 1916 he edited Oxford Poetryand later graduated (B.A.)

    with first class honours. His brother Julian wrote,

    I believe his blindness was a blessing in disguise. For one thing, it put paid to his idea of taking up medicine as

    a career... His uniqueness lay in his universalism. He was able to take all knowledge for his province.[5]

    Following his education at Balliol, Huxley was financially indebted to his father and had to earn a living. He

    taught French for a year at Eton, where Eric Blair (later to become George Orwell) andStephen

    Runciman were among his pupils, but was remembered as an incompetent and hopeless teacher who couldnt

    keep discipline. Nevertheless, Blair and others were impressed by his use of words.[6]For a short while in 1918,

    he was employed acquiring provisions at the Air Ministry.

    Significantly, Huxley also worked for a time in the 1920s at the technologically-advancedBrunner and

    Mond chemical plant inBillingham, Teesside, and the most recent introduction to his famous science fiction

    novelBrave New World(1932) states that this experience of "an ordered universe in a world of planless

    incoherence" was one source for the novel.[7]

    [edit]Career

    Huxley completed his first (unpublished) novel at the age of 17 and began writing seriously in his early 20s. His

    first published novels were social satires, beginning with Crome Yellow(1921).

    Bell.

    During the First World War, Huxley spent much of his time at Garsington Manor, home of LadyOttoline Morrell,

    working as a farm labourer. Here he met several Bloomsbury figures including Bertrand RussellandClive Bell.

    Later, in Crome Yellow(1921) he caricatured the Garsington lifestyle. In 1919 he married Maria Nys, a Belgian

    woman he met at Garsington; they had one son. The family lived in Italy part of the time in the 1920s, where

    Huxley would visit his friendD. H. Lawrence. Following Lawrence's death in 1930, Huxley edited Lawrence's

    letters (1933).

    Works of this period included important novels on the dehumanising aspects of scientific progress, most

    famously Brave New World, and on pacifist themes (for example, Eyeless in Gaza). In Brave New

    WorldHuxley portrays a society operating on the principles of mass production and Pavlovian conditioning.

    Huxley was strongly influenced by F. Matthias Alexanderand included him as a character in Eyeless in Gaza.

    Starting from this period, Huxley began to write and edit non-fiction works on pacifist issues, includingEnds

    and Means,An Encyclopedia of Pacifism, and Pacifism and Philosophy, and was an active member of

    the Peace Pledge Union.[8]

    [edit]The U.S.

    In 1937, Huxley moved to Hollywood, with his wife Maria, son Matthew, and friendGerald Heard. He lived in

    the U.S., mainly in southern California, until his death, but also for a time in Taos, New Mexico, where he

    wrote Ends and Means(published in 1937). In this work he examines the fact that although most people in

    modern civilisation agree that they want a world of "liberty, peace, justice, and brotherly love", they have not

    been able to agree on how to achieve it.

    Heard introduced Huxley to Vedanta(Veda-Centric Hinduism), meditation, and vegetarianism through the

    principle ofahimsa. In 1938 Huxley befriended J. Krishnamurti, whose teachings he greatly admired. He also

    became a Vedantist in the circle of HinduSwamiPrabhavananda, and introduced Christopher Isherwoodto this

    circle. Not long after, Huxley wrote his book on widely held spiritual values and ideas, The Perennial

    Philosophy, which discussed the teachings of renowned mystics of the world. Huxley's book affirmed a

    sensibility that insists there are realities beyond the generally accepted "five senses" and that there is genuine

    meaning for humans beyond both sensual satisfactions and sentimentalities.

    Huxley became a close friend of Remsen Bird, president ofOccidental College. He spent much time at the

    college, which is in theEagle Rock neighbourhood of Los Angeles. The college appears as "Tarzana College"

    in his satirical novelAfter Many a Summer(1939). The novel won Huxley that year'sJames Tait Black Memorial

    Prize for fiction.[9] Huxley also incorporated Bird into the novel.

    During this period Huxley earned some Hollywood income as a writer. In March 1938, his friend Anita Loos, a

    novelist and screenwriter, put him in touch with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayerwho hired Huxley forMadame

    Curie which was originally to starGreta Garboand be directed by George Cukor. (The film was eventually

    filmed by MGM in 1943 with a different director and stars.) Huxley received screen credit forPride and

    Prejudice (1940) and was paid for his work on a number of other films, including Jane Eyre (1944).

    However, his experience in Hollywood was not a success. When he wrote a synopsis ofAlice in

    Wonderland,Walt Disneyrejected it on the grounds that "he could only understand every third word".

    [10] Huxley's leisurely development of ideas, it seemed, was not suitable for the movie moguls, who demanded

    fast, dynamic dialogue above all else. For Dick Huemer, during the 1940s, Huxley went to the first of a five

    meetings' session to elaborate the script ofAlice in Wonderlandbut never came again.[11] For author John

    Grant, although the movie's character the Caterpillar displays some characteristics familiar from Huxley's

    discussion of his experiments withhallucinogens, Huxley's contribution to the movie is nonexistent.[12]

    On 21 October 1949, Huxley wrote toGeorge Orwell, author ofNineteen Eighty-Four, congratulating him on

    "how fine and how profoundly important the book is". In his letter to Orwell, he predicted:

    Within the next generation I believe that the world's leaders will discover that infant conditioning and narco-

    hypnosis are more efficient, as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons, and that the lust for power

    can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and

    kicking them into obedience.[13]

    [edit]Post World War II

    After the Second World War, Huxley applied for United States citizenship. His application was continuously

    deferred on the grounds that he would not say he would take up arms to defend the U.S. He claimed aphilosophical, rather than a religious objection, and therefore was not exempt under theMcCarran Act.[14] He

    withdrew his application. Nevertheless, he remained in the country; and in 1959 he turned down an offer of

    a Knight Bachelorby theMacmillan government. During the 1950s Huxley's interest in the field ofpsychical

    research grew keener, and his later works are strongly influenced by both mysticism and his experiences with

    psychedelic drugs.

    In October 1930, the English occultist Aleister Crowley dined with Huxley in Berlin, and to this day rumours

    persist that Crowley introduced Huxley topeyote on that occasion. He was introduced to mescaline (considered

    to be the key active ingredient of peyote) by the psychiatristHumphry Osmond in 1953.[15] Through Dr.

    Osmond, Huxley met millionaire Alfred Matthew Hubbardwho would deal withLSD on a wholesale basis.[16] On

    24 December 1955, Huxley took his first dose of LSD. Indeed, Huxley was a pioneer of self-directed

    psychedelic drug use "in a search for enlightenment", famously taking 100 micrograms of LSD as he lay dying.

    His psychedelic drug experiences are described in the essaysThe Doors of Perception(the title deriving from

    some lines in the bookThe Marriage of Heaven and HellbyWilliam Blake), andHeaven and Hell. Some of his

    writings on psychedelics became frequent reading among earlyhippies[citation needed]. While living in Los Angeles,

    Huxley was a friend ofRay Bradbury. According to Sam Weller's biography of Bradbury, the latter was

    dissatisfied with Huxley, especially after Huxley encouraged Bradbury to take psychedelic drugs.

    [edit]Association with Vedanta

    Beginning in 1939 and continuing until his death in 1963, Huxley had an extensive association with theVedanta

    Society of Southern California, founded and headed bySwami Prabhavananda. Together withGerald

    Heard,Christopher Isherwood, and other followers he was initiated by the Swami and was taught meditation

    and spiritual practices.

    In 1944 Huxley wrote the introduction to the "Bhagavad Gita: The Song of God",[17] translated by Swami

    Prabhavanada and Christopher Isherwood, which was published by The Vedanta Society of Southern

    California.

    From 1941 through 1960 Huxley contributed 48 articles to Vedanta and the West, published by the Society. Healso served on the editorial board with Isherwood, Heard, and playwright John van Druten from 1951 through

    1962.

    Huxley also occasionally lectured at the Hollywood and Santa Barbara Vedanta temples. Two of those lectures

    have been released on CD: Knowledge and Understandingand Who Are We from 1955.

    After the publication ofThe Doors of Perception, Huxley and the Swami disagreed about the meaning and

    importance of the LSD drug experience, which may have caused the relationship to cool, but Huxley continued

    to write articles for the Society's journal, lecture at the temple, and attend social functions.

    [edit]Eyesight

    With respect to details about the true quality of Huxley's eyesight at specific points in his life, there are differing

    accounts. Around 1939, Huxley encountered the Bates Method for better eyesight, and a teacher, Margaret

    Corbett, who was able to teach him in the method. In 1940, Huxley relocated from Hollywood to a 40-acre

    (160,000 m2) ranchito in the high desert hamlet ofLlano, California, in northernmost Los Angeles County.

    Huxley then said that his sight improved dramatically with the Bates Method and the extreme and pure natural

    lighting of the southwestern American desert. He reported that for the first time in over 25 years, he was able to

    read without glasses and without strain. He even tried driving a car along the dirt road beside the ranch. He

    wrote a book about his successes with the Bates Method,The Art of Seeing, which was published in 1942

    (US), 1943 (UK). It was from this period, with the publication of the generally disputed theories contained in the

    latter book, that a growing degree of popular controversy arose over the subject of Huxleys eyesight.

    It was, and to a noticeable extent still is, widely held that, for most of his life, since the illness in his teens which

    left Huxley nearly blind, that his eyesight was exceedingly poor (despite the partial recovery which had enabled

    him to study at Oxford). For instance, some ten years after publication ofThe Art of Seeing, in 1952,Bennett

    Cerfwas present when Huxley spoke at a Hollywood banquet, wearing no glasses and apparently reading his

    paper from the lectern without difficulty: "Then suddenly he falteredand the disturbing truth became obvious.

    He wasn't reading his address at all. He had learned it by heart. To refresh his memory he brought the paper

    closer and closer to his eyes. When it was only an inch or so away he still couldn't read it, and had to fish for a

    magnifying glass in his pocket to make the typing visible to him. It was an agonising moment."[18]

    On the other hand, Huxley's second wife,Laura Archera Huxley, would later emphasise in her biographical

    account, This Timeless Moment: "One of the great achievements of his life: that of having regained his sight."

    Here, she portrays the accomplishment as both metaphorical and considerably physiological in nature,

    attributing that which she cites J. Krishnamurtias naming the spirit of "freedom from the known", which she

    suggests that Huxley applied, non-exhaustively, in writing The Art of Seeingand utilising the Bates Method.

    After revealing a letter she wrote to the Los Angeles Times disclaiming the label of Huxley as a "poor fellow

    who can hardly see" byWalter C. Alvarez, she tempers this: "Although I feel it was an injustice to treat Aldousas though he were blind, it is true there were many indications of his impaired vision. For instance, although

    Aldous did not wear glasses, he would quite often use a magnifying lens."[19]Laura Huxley proceeds to

    elaborate a few nuances of inconsistency peculiar to Huxley's vision. Her account, in this respect, is discernibly

    congruent with the following sample of Huxley's own words from The Art of Seeing. "The most characteristic

    fact about the functioning of the total organism, or any part of the organism, is that it is not constant, but highly

    variable." Nevertheless, the topic of Huxleys eyesight continues to endure similar, significant controversy,

    regardless of how trivial a subject matter it might initially appear.[20]

    They had one child,Matthew Huxley(19 April 1920 10 February 2005), who had a career as an author,

    anthropologist, and prominentepidemiologist.[21]In 1955, Maria died of breast cancer.

    In 1956 he marriedLaura Archera (19112007), also an author. She wrote This Timeless Moment, a biography

    of Huxley. In 1960 Huxley himself was diagnosed with laryngeal cancer, and in the years that followed, with his

    health deteriorating, he wrote the Utopian novelIsland,[22]and gave lectures on "Human Potentialities" at

    the Esalen institute, which were fundamental to the forming of theHuman Potential Movement.

    [edit]Death

    On his deathbed, unable to speak, Huxley made a written request to his wife Laura for "LSD, 100 g,

    intramuscular". According to her account of his death[23] in This Timeless Moment, she obliged with an injection

    at 11:45 am and another a couple of hours later. He died, aged 69, at 5:20 pm on 22 November 1963, several

    hours after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Huxley's ashes were interred in the family grave at the Watts

    Cemetery, home of theWatts Mortuary Chapelin Compton, a village nearGuildford, Surrey, England.[24]

    Media coverage of Huxley's passing was overshadowed by the assassination of President John F. Kennedy,

    on the same day, and the death of the British authorC. S. Lewis, who also died on 22 November. This

    coincidence was the inspiration forPeter Kreeft's bookBetween Heaven and Hell: A Dialog Somewhere

    Beyond Death with John F. Kennedy, C. S. Lewis, & Aldous Huxley. Huxley's literary legacy continues to berepresented by the literary agency headed byGeorges Borchardt.
