It expounds spiritually in the light of moral conduct, and regards character as the test and measure of truth. "The universal decay of effete religious systems which the world is witnessing today is matter for rejoicing; it is the death which precedes Life; it is the passing away of the false in order that the True may be more fully revealed." James Allen was a British philosophical writer known for his inspirational books and poetry and as a pioneer of self-help movement. Allen's practical philosophy for successful living has awakened millions to the discovery that "they themselves are makers of themselves". Allen insists that it is within the power of each person to form his own character and create his own happiness.
Autorenporträt
James Allen (November 28, 1864 - January 24, 1912) was a British philosophical writer known for his inspirational books and poetry. He is widely regarded as a pioneer of the self-help movement. Born in Leicester, England, Allen faced early hardship when his father was tragically murdered in America while seeking work, leaving the 15-year-old to support his family.In 1893, Allen moved to London and later South Wales, where he began a career in journalism. During this time, he met and married Lily Louisa Oram in 1895. By 1898, he was writing for The Herald of the Golden Age, a magazine aligned with his spiritual beliefs, marking the start of his prolific writing journey.Allen's most famous work, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1903. Inspired by Proverbs 23:7, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," the book examines the influence of thought on character and destiny. After its success, Allen retired to Ilfracombe, Devon, dedicating himself to writing and publishing over one book a year until his death in 1912.
