Book Description
George William Russell (10 April 1867 - 17 July 1935) who wrote under the pseudonym Æ (sometimes written AE or A.E.), was an Irish nationalist, writer, editor, critic, poet, and painter. He was also a mystical writer, and centre of a group of followers of theosophy in Dublin, for many years. Theosophy is a spiritual philosophy developed since the late 19th-century. Its major themes were originally described mainly (though not exclusively) by Helena Blavatsky (1831-1891), co-founder of the Theosophical Society.

Book Description
George William Russell (1867-1935) who wrote under the pseudonym AE was an Anglo-Irish supporter of the Nationalist movement in Ireland, a critic, poet, and painter. He was also a mystical writer, and centre of a group of followers of theosophy in Dublin, for many years. He worked many years for the Irish Agricultural Organization Society (IAOS), an agricultural co-operative movement founded by Horace Plunkett. When Plunkett needed an able organiser, W. B. Yeats suggested Russell, who became Assistant Secretary of the IAOS. Russell was editor from 1905-1923 of The Irish Homestead, the journal of the IAOS, and infused it with vitality that made it famous half the world over. He was also editor of The Irish Statesman from 1923 until 1930. Amongst his other works are The Nuts of Knowledge: Lyrical Poems Old and New (1903), By Still Waters: Lyrical Poems Old and New (1906), Imaginations and Reveries (1915), AE in the Irish Theosophist (1937) and The National Being: Some Thoughts on an Irish Polity.

Book Description
In 'National Being: Some Thoughts on an Irish Polity', George William Russell reflects on the birth of the State of Ireland in the midst of World War I and the challenges it faced. He argues that a nation's external circumstances are a measure of its inner life, and therefore, building a civilization worthy of Ireland's struggles requires a focus on both the body and soul of the national being. To do this, he believes that the quality of thought engendered in the national being must be of the highest caliber, with a focus on original principles discovered to be fundamental in Irish character. Only then can Ireland achieve true national ideals and build a civilization that is majestic and worthy of respect. Russell's reflections offer a starting point for a deeper meditation on what it means to be Irish and what kind of civilization the people of Ireland want to create.
