	Sir James Fitzjames, Bart Stephen - LoveToKnow 1911
		Fitzjames Stephen was for three years (1842-1845) at Eton, and for two years at King's College, London.
		In 1877 Stephen was made a Knight Commander of the Star of India, and in 1878 he received the honorary degree of D.C.L. at Oxford.
		The third son, Mr H. Stephen, was appointed in 1901 judge of the High Court of Calcutta.

	Sir Leslie Stephen - LoveToKnow 1911
		In the autumn of 1882 he abandoned the direction of the Cornhill to James Payn, having accepted the more responsible duty of the editor of the Dictionary of National Biography, for the first planning and conception of which he was largely responsible.
		Many of these are salted with irony, and most of them are characterized by felicitous phrases, by frequent flashes of insight (especially of the sardonic order), and by the good fortune which attends a consummate artist in his special craft.
		As a thinker Leslie Stephen showed himself consistently a follower of Hume, Bentham, the Mills and G. Lewes, but he accepted the older utilitarianism only as modified by the application of Darwinian principles, upon lines to some extent indicated by Herbert Spencer (see Ethics).

	Casebook: Jack the Ripper - Bravo for Maybrick
		It is ironic, therefore, that the name Stephen itself has been connected with murder, as the son of this eminent High Court Judge, James Kenneth Stephen, a barrister, was in later years to be cited as a suspect for the Whitechapel murders of 1888, as was Dr. William Gull.
		Coincidentally 32 years later after the Abolition act was passed James Stephen's grandson, Sir James Fitzjames Stephen, born in 1829, was employed by the Liberals in 1865 to bring the acting governor of Jamaica, Edward John Eyre, to court for mass murder.
		Sir James Fitzjames Stephen was the high court judge who sat in the trial against Florence Maybrick in 1889, when she was accused of murdering her husband James by poison.

	Chapter Two: Self-Regarding Conduct -- Utilitarian Defence of Absolute Prohibition
		Stephen seemed to have some such argument in mind when he maintained, as against Mill, that "there are acts of wickedness so gross and outrageous that, self-protection apart, they may be prevented as far as possible at any cost to the offender and punished, if they occur, with exemplary severity" (Stephen, Liberty, p.
		Stephen's separation of these functions of punishment from the utilitarian function of preventing crime may give the impression that they have no utilitarian justification.
		Stephen's insistence that it was the grosser forms of vice that he had in mind, and that there must be an overwhelming moral majority, may be taken to mean that for him unless these conditions are satisfied the utilitarian calculation would not favour the infliction of punishment.

		Stephen made his point with a bit of wit when he wrote, "Society cannot make silk purses out of sows' ears." First, Stephen argued that a large portion of the population has been and always would be either uneducated, or of dubious character.
		Stephen correctly realized, that it was only natural for people, when they came together to form societies, to bring with them shared religious and cultural values that would serve as the foundation of the society they wished to build.
		Stephen's experience, as an attorney and judge, gave him a unique insight into human psychology, which had him arguing that most of the social ills perpetrated by humankind were done out of evil or weakness of willpower, and not out of ignorance.

	James Kenneth Stephen, plate 30
		Virginia Woolf’s cousin “Jem”—James Kenneth Stephen (1859-1892)—was the second son of Leslie Stephen’s brother, Sir James Fitzjames Stephen (1829-1894).
		A brilliant athlete and intellectual, Jem went “mad” in the late 1880s, according to Virginia Woolf, and was committed to St. Andrews Hospital in Northampton, England, where he died in 1892 at the age of thirty two.
		Leslie and Julia Stephen welcomed their beloved nephew into their home when Virginia Woolf was a child, even when Jem’s behavior became erratic and violent.

		James Fitzjames Stephen argued (against mid-nineteenth century feminists) for indissoluble marriages, based on the claim that the women cared for the children, therefore they needed men to care for them.
		Why should all the power be put in the hands of the man? If, as James Fitzjames Stephen claimed, the reason was to protect women, then surely the power should have been placed in the hands of the woman.

	Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 88007302
		Stephen's broad rationalist/utilitarian ethical and intellectual stance manifested itself most prominently in law and social and political philosophy.
		Stephen's turn of mind led him to perceive the substance of literature and religious orthodoxy as of complementary interest and relevance to the social and political mores of Victorian England, making him one of Dickens' and Cardinal Newman's most formidable and trenchant critics.
		Dr Smith's account is the first to set Stephen's life and thought in its proper Victorian context, and marks a significant addition to the growing literature on the intellectual history of nineteenth-century England.
