    Extractions: Aldous Huxley Az õ öccse volt Aldous Leonard Huxley, aki már egész ifjan népszerû költõnek indult, majd azt hihették, hogy mint nagyapjuk és bátyja, õ is nagy biológus lesz. De attól kezdve, hogy 27 éves korában megjelent „Crome Yellow" (magyar fordításban „Nyár a kastélyban" ) címû igen szellemes, nagyon szórakoztató regénye, otthon és külföldön nyilvánvaló volt, hogy a század jelentékeny prózaírói közt van a helye. Bár idõs korában - ötvenes-hatvanas éveiben - sokan azt is mondották, hogy a kábítószerek lélektani hatásának õ a legnagyobb pszichológusa. Itt-ott filozófusnak is tekintették. A marxisták is elismerték, bár nehezményezték, hogy nem materialista. A többé-kevésbé vallásosak is elismerték, csak azt nehezményezték, hogy nem idealista. Csökönyös agnosztikus volt kezdettõl mindvégig, aki azt hiszi és állítja, hogy nincs tudományos lehetõség Isten, a földi életen kívüli létforma, test és lélek azonosságát vagy különbségét akár bizonyítani, akár tagadni. Amikor elsõ regénye is megjelent, ez otthon azonnal, de hamarosan világszerte is sok pénzt hozó siker lett. A huszonhét éves szerzõ nem sokkal elõbb nõsült. A regény honoráriumából költséges nászútra tellett. Soha eszébe se jutott takarékoskodni, hiszen jómódú családból származott, és az elsõ könyv után nõttön-nõtt a népszerûsége. A fiatal házaspár tehát nekiindult a nagyvilágnak. Bejárták Olaszországot, Franciaországot, átugorhattak Svájcba is. Ezek az úti élmények, a megismert tájak idõvel sorra belekerültek életmûvébe. Amiként boldog szerelmes házassága, késõbb élete egyéb szerelmes epizódjai is mozzanatokként tértek vissza regényeibe és novelláiba. Voltak olyan túl komoly olvasók és kritikusok, akik szinte a szemére hányták, hogy társadalmi, lélektani és társadalomkritikai regényei mellett - mi tagadás - szórakoztató szerelmi regények, novellák, sõt még bûnügyi tárgyú izgalmas történetei is vannak. Idõvel tanulságos tényként emlegette, hogy legerotikusabb regénye

    Extractions: "If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution-then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." "Two thousand pharmacologists and bio-chemists were subsidized. Six years later it was being produced commercially. The perfect drug. Euphoric, narcotic, pleasantly hallucinant. All the advantages of Christianity and alcohol; none of their defects. Take a holiday from reality whenever you like, and come back without so much as a headache or a mythology. Stability was practically assured."

    Extractions: Aldous Huxley was born on 26th July 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, ‘Crome Yellow’ (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by ‘Antic Hay’ (1923), ‘Those Barren Leaves’ (1925) and ‘Point Counter Point’ (1928) – bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily but ruthlessly passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society. For most of the 1920s Huxley lived in Italy and an account of his experiences there can be found in ‘Along The Road’ (1925). In the years leading up to the Second World War, Huxley’s work took on a more sombre tone in response to the confusion of a society which he felt to be spinning dangerously out of control. The great novels of ideas, including his most famous work ‘Brave New World’ (published in 1932 this warned against the dehumanising aspects of scientific and material ‘progress’) and the pacifist novel ‘Eyeless in Gaza’ (1936) were accompanied by a series of wise and brilliant essays, collected in volume form under titles such as ‘Music at Night’ (1931) and ‘Enda and Means’ (1937). In 1937, at the height of his fame, Huxley left Europe to live in California, working for a time as a screenwriter in Hollywood. As the West braced itself for war, Huxley came increasingly to believe that the key to solving the world’s problems lay in changing the individual through mystical enlightenment. The exploration of the inner life through mysticism and hallucinogenic drugs was to dominate his work for the rest of his life. His beliefs found expression in both fiction (‘Time Must Have a Stop’, 1944 and ‘Island’, 1962) and non-fiction (‘The Perennial Philosophy’, 1945, ‘Grey Eminence’, 1941 and the famous account of his first mescalin experience, ‘The Doors of Perception’, 1954.

Essay "Distractions I" in Christopher Isherwood's Vedanta for the Western World To be shaken out of the ruts of ordinary perception, to be shown for a few timeless hours the outer and inner world, not as they appear to an animal obsessed with survival or to a human being obsessed with words and notions, but as they are apprehended, directly and unconditionally, by Mind at Large— this is an experience of inestimable value to everyone and especially to the intellectual. The Doors of Perception Art, I suppose, is only for beginners, or else for those resolute dead-enders, who have made up their minds to be content with the ersatz of Suchness, with symbols rather than with what they signify, with the elegantly composed recipe in lieu of actual dinner.
