| Résumé : | On 16 February 1966 James Camlin Beckett, who by that time had taught in Queen's University Belfast for twenty-one years, confided to his dairy that he found it 'hard to stay awake for an hour long lecture' and wondered whether 'we also go to sleep without knowing it, when we are giving a lecture instead of receiving it'. In this, the first of the lectures commemorating Beckett's achievement, I propose - one hopes in a passably alert state - to examine three central aspects of his life and convictions: his politics and sense of national identity, his religious life, and finally his philosophy of history |
