William F. Buckley, Jr. : ウィキペディア英語版
William F. Buckley, Jr.

William Frank Buckley, Jr.〔"William Francis" in the editorial obituary "Up From Liberalism" ''The Wall Street Journal'' February 28, 2008, p. A16; Martin, Douglas, "William F. Buckley Jr., 82, Dies; Sesquipedalian Spark of Right", obituary, ''New York Times'', February 28, 2008, which reported that his parents preferred "Frank", which would make him a "Jr.", but at his christening, the priest "insisted on a saint's name, so Francis was chosen. When the younger William Buckley was 5, he asked to change his middle name to Frank and his parents agreed. At that point, he became William F. Buckley Jr."〕 (November 24, 1925 – February 27, 2008) was an American conservative author〔Italie, Hillel via ''Associated Press''. (SFgate.com ), ''San Francisco Chronicle'', February 27, 2008. Accessed January 18, 2009.〕 and commentator. He founded the political magazine ''National Review'' in 1955, which had a major impact in stimulating the conservative movement. He hosted 1,429 episodes of the television show ''Firing Line'' (1966–1999) where he became known for his transatlantic accent and wide vocabulary.〔''The Wall Street Journal'' February 28, 2008, p. A16〕 He also wrote a nationally syndicated newspaper column and numerous spy novels.〔(Cumulus.hillsdale.edu )〕〔
George H. Nash, a historian of the modern American conservative movement, said Buckley was "arguably the most important public intellectual in the United States in the past half century… For an entire generation, he was the preeminent voice of American conservatism and its first great ecumenical figure." Buckley's primary contribution to politics was a fusion of traditional American political conservatism with ''laissez-faire'' economic theory and anti-communism, laying groundwork for the new American conservatism of U.S. presidential candidate Barry Goldwater and President Ronald Reagan. "Buckley lighted the fire," in the words of former GOP Senate leader Bob Dole.〔()〕
Buckley wrote ''God and Man at Yale'' (1951) and over 50 other books on writing, speaking, history, politics, and sailing, including a series of novels featuring CIA agent Blackford Oakes. Buckley referred to himself as either a libertarian or conservative.〔C-SPAN Booknotes October 23, 1993〕〔Buckley, William F., Jr. ''Happy Days Were Here Again: Reflections of a Libertarian Journalist'', Random House, ISBN 0-679-40398-1, 1993.〕 He resided in New York City and Stamford, Connecticut. He was a practicing Catholic, regularly attending the traditional Latin Mass in Connecticut.
==Early life==
Buckley was born November 24, 1925, in New York City to lawyer and oil developer William Frank Buckley, Sr., of Irish ancestry, and Aloise Josephine Antonia Steiner, a New Orleans native of Swiss-German, and some Irish, origins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ancestry of William F. Buckley )〕 The sixth of ten children, Buckley moved as a boy with his family from Mexico to Sharon, Connecticut, before beginning his formal schooling in Paris, where he attended first grade. By age seven, he received his first formal training in English at a day school in London; his first and second languages were Spanish and French.〔 Early chapters recount his early education and mastery of languages〕 As a boy, Buckley developed a love for music, sailing, horses, hunting, skiing, and story-telling. All of these interests would be reflected in his later writings. Just before World War II, at age 13, he attended high school at the Catholic preparatory school Beaumont College in England. During the war, his family took in the future British historian Alistair Horne as a child war evacuee. Buckley and Horne remained lifelong friends. Buckley and Horne both attended the Millbrook School, in Millbrook, New York, and graduated as members of the Class of 1943. At Millbrook, Buckley founded and edited the school's yearbook, ''The Tamarack'', his first experience in publishing. When Buckley was a young man, his father was an acquaintance of libertarian author Albert Jay Nock. William F. Buckley, Sr., encouraged his son to read Nock's works.
As a youth, Buckley developed many musical talents. He played the harpsichord very well, later calling it "the instrument I love beyond all others".〔 He was an accomplished pianist and appeared once on Marian McPartland's National Public Radio show "Piano Jazz". A great admirer of Johann Sebastian Bach,〔(Once Again, Buckley Takes On Bach ). ''The New York Times''. Published October 25, 1992.〕 Buckley said that he wanted Bach's music played at his funeral.
