Best known for As a Man Thinketh, he authored many other books about the power of thought including The Path to Prosperity, The Mastery of Destiny, and Byways of Blessedness.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
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.
