First published in 1965, James Stephens: His Work and an Account of His Life offers an intimate portrait of Stephens, tracing his journey from the vibrant streets of Dublin to the bustling literary circles of London. Through two distinct parts, Pyle explores Stephens' evolution as a writer and thinker. In Part I, the book delves into his formative years in Dublin (1880–1925), examining his youthful inspirations, early writings, and the profound influence of William Blake and Theosophy on his work. It also highlights Stephens' passionate engagement with Irish nationalism, the Irish language, and his contributions to Irish epic literature. Part II shifts to Stephens' later years in London (1925–1950), where his philosophical musings deepened, his poetry matured, and his voice resonated through lectures in America and broadcasts back home. Pyle captures the essence of Stephens' final philosophy, his creative endeavors, and his enduring impact on Irish and international literature. This book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the life, work, and legacy of James Stephens.
If ancestry contributes to the character of a man, one can well understand the charisma, the fortitude, and the adventurous spirit of President Theodore Roosevelt. Built upon five American generations of his maternal Scots bloodline--the Bullochs of Georgia--Theodore could have been no less. This book centers on the life story of James Stephens Bulloch, Theodore's maternal grandfather. Yet, the tale began in the 1720s with the first James Bulloch's immigration to the American colonies. He was a Scotsman, who became devoted to the Patriot Cause. The story continued with his son Archibald, a member of Georgia's Sons of Liberty and the First Continental Congress, who rose to the office of President of Georgia. Archibald's son James became a captain during the American Revolutionary War and followed in his father's footsteps as a civil servant. Captain Bulloch's son, Major James Stephens Bulloch, continued the family tradition of military service. This biography relates the life of a man of varied interests and numerous occupations, a learned man, an aristocratic Southern gentleman. Based almost entirely upon primary documents, many of which are presented as appendices, this biography reveals James' life, loves, and occupations--a man whose bloodline flowed in the veins of James Dunwoody Bulloch, Irvine Stephens Bulloch, Theodore Roosevelt, and Eleanor Roosevelt.
Der irische Schriftsteller James Stephens (1880/82?-1950) stellt zwar eine eher zweitrangige, weil epigonale Figur innerhalb der sogenannten -Irish Literary Renaissance- dar, muss aber mit George Moore und James Joyce zu den Stammvatern der modernen irischen Erzahlliteratur (besonders der phantastisch-humoristischen Richtung) gerechnet werden. Die drei fruhen Romane Stephens', die seinen spateren Bearbeitungen von Stoffen aus der irischen Mythologie gegenuberstehen, werden hier als eigenstandige Prosakunstwerke betrachtet."
