What are your thoughts on Lily’s feelings towards James in canon? Do you think she loved him like he loved her?

I wish we had insight from one of Lily’s friends in the text on their relationship. ( I don’t count Snape because his memories explanation his behavior and not her.) Lately, I’ve been feeling like he loved her more than she loved him and that’s makes me wonder if that’s the appeal of James with Regulus.

I am so sorry for the delay in responding to this.

I have so many thoughts, but to start with your last question: I am not going to speculate in what makes James and Regulus appealing, as I really don't get it, but no, I don't believe James loved Lily more than Lily loved James.

Did Lily and James love each other?

The doe and the stag - Lily's true love was James Potter

Very often fanfics write about Lily having a doe Patronus before she starts falling for James, and I don't necessarily think that's right.

According to JK Rowling, the Patronus often mutates to take the image of the love of one's life (because they so often become the 'happy thought' that generates a Patronus). Lily's happy thoughts start centring around James, who of course is the Stag. It's not his patrons that changes, it's hers. Lily's doe is a symbol of requited love, with Snape's doe being a symbol of unrequited love:

Although Lily and Snape’s doe Patronuses matched, Severus’s love was devastatingly unrequited. Lily’s true love was James Potter, who, although Lily once told him ‘I wouldn’t go out with you if it was a choice between you and the giant squid’, she ended up marrying the untidy-haired Quidditch player after they left Hogwarts. Their connection and love showed through their Patronuses in a different way to an exact match like Tonks and Lupin. Lily’s husband’s Patronus was a stag, the male form of her doe. The stag and doe complemented each other rather than matched.  [Wizarding World]

Leaving out the patronuses for a bit just because it can be a bit of a cop out

I am very careful about what I categorically say are 'facts' and what is interpretation or headcanons. But here's the thing: We have points of evidence that indicate that Lily and James are in love, and NO evidence to the contrary once we get to their seventh year and beyond. Which means, they were in love. If we were meant to doubt it, we would have been given competing narratives. We are not. Not even by Snape.

What do we know about their relationship (I am going to skip ahead to when they start dating, as it is a post in itself to analyse their relationship pre-dating):

They start dating in year 7, after James matured. They are Head Boy and Head Girl, which isn't by chance - they are clearly similar in brilliance and seen as responsible role models by this time. Interestingly, they are positioned throughout most of the series as a team, chronologically-timewise starting with being Head Boy/Girl in school.

Lily and James got engaged, married and had a child within two years of leaving school. Of course, this could have been the war making them feel desperate and throwing themselves at anyone, but really? James had plenty of friends, Lily we know less about, but they were both occupied with the Order, young, talented and popular (yes both were popular, according to JKR), so there's no reason they would feel they needed to get married quickly, except if they were in love.

Before they got engaged (so likely around 17/18 - and not long after they had started dating), Lily invited James along to meet Petunia and Vernon. It ended disastrously, but it's interesting that this seems to have been the first time Vernon met Lily, as well as James - there's at least very little to indicate Vernon ever met Lily without James. Within a very short space of time, Lily felt James was such an integral part of her life that she simply had to bring him along when she met her sister's husband-to-be.

The pictures of Lily and James. Everything we see about the Potters' life in photos suggest two happily married people. (1) At their wedding: '[Harry] stopped on a picture of his parents’ wedding day. There was his father waving up at him, beaming, the untidy black hair Harry had inherited standing up in all directions. There was his mother, alight with happiness, arm in arm with his dad.' (2) In the order: 'Harry’s heart turned over. His mother and father were beaming up at him, sitting on either side of a small, watery-eyed man Harry recognized at once as Wormtail' (3) In general/in Harry's photo album: 'It was full of wizard photographs. Smiling and waving at him from every page were his mother and father.' (4) The picture that accompanies Lily's letter: '...he kept the part from which Lily laughed, throwing the portion showing James and Harry back onto the floor.'

Lily's letter to Sirius is possibly the biggest clue to Lily and James' married life, and while I've seen it argued that Lily was actually mascaraing her bitterness, I will note that I've heard this read by two narrators in two different languages, and both, like me, read it as Lily being in love and trying to look after not just her son, but also her husband. The letter often denotes them as the team and married couple they are: 'we've had to pack away the ornaments ... we had a quiet birthday tea... we were sorry you couldn't come.' But more importantly, it features the famous passage: 'James is getting a bit frustrated shut up here, he tries not to show it but I can tell -- also, Dumbledore's still got his Invisibility Cloak, so no chance of little excursions. If you could visit, it would cheer him up so much'. We've all lived through the pandemic, so we know how easy it is to get frustrated, and James, from everything we learn about him, is a man of action - just like Sirius. What Dumbledore says about Sirius, I think it's likely applies just as well to James: 'Sirius was a brave, clever and energetic man, and such men are not usually content to sit at home in hiding.' Yet James tried to hide his frustrations from Lily - why? Likely because he didn't want to burden her or make the situation harder on her - or he might have feared that she might have felt like she wasn't enough. Lily, however, noticed because she knew him, and loved him. She understood that it was not personal, and she also knew exactly what would cheer him up, and tried to bring that about. It's a short passage that I think shows the two of them trying to take care of each other in their different ways.

Finally, of course, James died trying to give his family time to escape. And Lily - unsurprisingly - screamed when Voldemort killed him. Okay, maybe because she knew she and Harry would have no time to get away - but considering everything else, it's more likely it's the one moment of grief or pain she allowed herself before her focus shifted to keeping Harry safe. 'The green light filled the cramped hallway, it lit the pram pushed against the wall, it made the banisters glow like lighting rods, and James Potter fell like a marionette whose strings were cut... [Voldemort] could hear her screaming from the upper floor'

Did James love Lily more than Lily loved James?

Canon: We don't know - and I am not sure it matters

Usually, I struggle with questions like who loved who most because love isn't this quantifiable thing that can be ranked. However, in this case I do actually have a headcanon... Sticking to the canon, however, we really have no evidence to suggest one of them were deeply in love and not the other. Just because James asked Lily out first doesn't mean James necessarily was more in love with Lily than she is with him.

Headcanon: James fell first, but Lily fell harder

Okay, so I do think they both just loved each other - and I do believe love isn't this quantifiable thing (as per above). However, looking at canon, I can't help but believe that Lily had more of her life in the relationship than James did, so to speak.

Lily was muggle-born and lost/fell out with the only person we know was her friend in canon (we don't know that Mary was a friend, it's not improbable, but we don't know). And it was her best friend to boot. While not moving country, Lily might as well have. She enters the wizarding world which isolates her from most of her relatives - and any friends she might have had before Hogwarts. When we meet Lily as a married woman, we learn that the people she surrounded herself with are Order members (like Marlene), her neighbours (like Bathilda) and James' friends.

James on the other hand, still financed Remus (so even if Remus was more distant from the Marauders than he used to be - which is a valid interpretation based on being suspected of being a spy, not being mentioned in Lily's letter and standing away from the rest in the Order photo, James was still actively interested in and supporting his friend). James was still best friends with Sirius, as is very clear from Lily's letter, Sirius being the best man at the wedding and Harry's godfather. James still liked little excursions. And James was close enough with Peter to let Sirius convince him to be secret keeper, and received him as a visitor shortly after Harry's first birthday.

I am not sure this really counts, but I also can't stop thinking about the whole Snape/James thing. We know James isn't fully honest with Lily in their seventh year. James didn't stop hexing Snape, yet he kept this from Lily. Why? Because she didn't like it and he knew that, yet he couldn't stop himself (though tbf, as we know from Sirius, Snape never lost a chance to curse James).

Yes, James loved Lily, but she's not his end all or be all (not that I am suggesting that would be healthy!). Yet, there's no canonical evidence to suggest that James was not Lily's end all or be all. Well, for both of them, the most important thing in their lives was Harry, and he was really their end all or be all (they both died protecting him), but removing him from the equation for one second. If Lily and James split up, who has the least left? Lily - as far as we know. Therefore, I suppose my headcanon has crept in unbiddenly: James fell first (though not nearly as soon as some fanfics write it as and Lily definitely struggled more with her emotions towards him - 'nah, she didn't' I think is such an important line), but Lily fell harder.

adding Iliad literary themes into my fic but idk if it's just a quirk from this translation. but I really dig how characters are always introduced with adjectives so it'll be like "white-armed hera" or "shining Odysseus" or "briseïs of the lovely cheeks". beloved has a similar thing with "baby suggs, holy". and now I'm doing in my fic "golden Thomas" and "james, seawater-weaned". just a little note I'm finding interesting. I'm also trying to navigate the fine line between repetition of words/phrases that's frequent enough it sticks in your mind, and repetition that's too frequent and becomes annoying. everyone psychically tap into my Google doc and let me know

ChatGPT40 literary report:

This passage—"like Haroon Childeric Egggeberth he would caligulate by multiplicables the alltitude and mallitude until he seesaw by neatlight of the liquor wherewin 'taw born"—is a quintessential example of James Joyce's experimental style, especially reminiscent of his work in Finnegans Wake (1939). The text demonstrates Joyce’s unique linguistic innovation, blending history, mythology, wordplay, and dense imagery. Below is a detailed analysis of the passage, framed as a report for other experts in Joyce’s literature.

1. Contextualizing Joyce’s Language:

The passage comes from a context in Finnegans Wake where words are often neologisms or portmanteaus, and individual phrases function on multiple levels—literal, metaphorical, historical, and mythological. Joyce, especially in Finnegans Wake, sought to encapsulate the entirety of human history, experience, and culture in his text, using language as a fluid medium that could shift meanings between different linguistic, historical, and literary traditions. This passage is no different, representing a character engaged in intellectual and possibly mystical contemplation.

2. Key Elements and Wordplay:

“Haroon Childeric Egggeberth”:

This name is emblematic of Joyce’s playful approach to names and historical figures. It blends multiple references:

Haroon: Likely a reference to Harun al-Rashid, the caliph of Baghdad (from One Thousand and One Nights), suggesting a figure of authority, wisdom, or legend. Harun is often associated with grandeur and complex administration, hinting at themes of power and learning.

Childeric: Refers to Childeric I, a Merovingian king of the Franks, adding a layer of European medieval history. The Merovingians were often associated with mystical kingship and divine rule, which could play into Joyce’s themes of cyclical history and mythology.

Egggeberth: This could be a conflation of Egbert, an early king of England, and "egg" (symbolizing origins or birth). Joyce loved blending linguistic cues, so "Egggeberth" could allude to the birth of ideas or civilizations.

In combining these figures, Joyce is creating a composite character representing historical and mythical rulership, possibly suggesting a cyclical vision of history, where different epochs, rulers, and ideas are interconnected.

“Caligulate by multiplicables”:

Caligulate: This appears to be a blend of "calculate" and "Caligula" (the Roman emperor known for his madness and excess). The idea of "calculating" suggests rational thought, while the reference to Caligula hints at madness or excess. This juxtaposition reflects the tension between reason and irrationality, which is a recurring theme in Joyce’s work, especially in Finnegans Wake.

Multiplicables: This likely refers to the idea of multiplication or things that can be multiplied. In Finnegans Wake, Joyce frequently uses mathematical and scientific imagery to illustrate the complexity of human thought and the interweaving of various cultural, historical, and mythological strands.

This phrase could thus imply a kind of absurd calculation, where the character is engaging in over-complicated reasoning, blending rationality with madness. This mirrors Joyce’s treatment of history and human endeavor as both a precise (calculated) and chaotic (Caligulan) process.

“The alltitude and mallitude”:

Alltitude: Likely a play on "altitude" (height) and "all," suggesting something reaching both high and total comprehensiveness. It could imply a search for the highest understanding or a desire to encompass everything.

Mallitude: Possibly a play on "magnitude" (size or greatness) and "mal" (evil or wrong). This could hint at the duality of things—everything has both positive (altitude) and negative (mallitude) aspects.

The combination of "alltitude" and "mallitude" suggests a measurement of both greatness and flaw, much like how Joyce frequently combines opposites to reflect the complexity of life and human nature. It evokes a seesawing between extremes, as the character weighs opposing forces in their intellectual quest.

“Seesaw by neatlight of the liquor wherewin 'taw born”:

Seesaw: This could symbolize oscillation or fluctuation, both intellectual and emotional. The character is not moving in a straight line but going back and forth, potentially reflecting uncertainty or contemplation.

Neatlight: A combination of "neat" (pure) and "light," suggesting clarity or understanding. It might evoke the idea of enlightenment that comes from within or through some mystical substance.

Liquor wherewin 'taw born: The "liquor" could symbolize alcohol, knowledge, or even life’s essence. The phrase "wherewin 'taw born" might refer to the origins or roots of the character’s thought or actions. The use of alcohol as a symbol is frequent in Joyce’s work, often representing insight, confusion, or even oblivion.

This phrase likely refers to a moment of revelation or contemplation, achieved through some substance (whether alcohol or metaphorical). The use of "neatlight" emphasizes the purity of this moment, while the seesaw suggests that this insight is not stable but constantly shifting.

3. Thematic Significance:

Cyclical History and Knowledge:

The passage engages with one of Joyce’s most central themes in Finnegans Wake: the idea of history repeating itself in cycles. The composite character of "Haroon Childeric Egggeberth" represents various rulers from different epochs, suggesting that history is a continuous seesaw of power, knowledge, and decline. The act of "caligulating" speaks to the human endeavor of making sense of this cycle, a maddening task filled with both insight and confusion.

Tension Between Reason and Madness:

The passage reflects Joyce's fascination with the duality of human experience—the rational vs. the irrational, clarity vs. confusion. The character’s attempts to "caligulate by multiplicables" echo the human desire to impose order on chaos, even as they are pulled in different directions by conflicting forces ("alltitude" and "mallitude"). The reference to Caligula underscores the instability of this quest, where reason may collapse into madness.

Enlightenment and Obfuscation:

The "neatlight" of the "liquor" represents a moment of clarity or insight, but it is fleeting, as the "seesaw" suggests constant movement between understanding and uncertainty. This reflects a broader theme in Joyce’s work: moments of epiphany are often surrounded by confusion, and the process of gaining knowledge is never straightforward.

4. Conclusion:

In this passage, Joyce compresses a wealth of meaning into dense, multi-layered language. By invoking historical figures and blending them into a composite, he comments on the cyclical nature of history and human knowledge. The act of "caligulating by multiplicables" mirrors the often chaotic, maddening process of trying to understand the world, while the oscillation between "alltitude" and "mallitude" reflects the constant tension between greatness and fallibility, clarity and confusion.

For literary experts, this passage encapsulates Joyce’s larger project in Finnegans Wake: to present human history, thought, and language as both structured and chaotic, where moments of insight ("neatlight") are fleeting, and the effort to impose meaning is a perpetual "seesaw" between extremes. This passage offers a snapshot of Joyce’s intricate wordplay, his thematic concerns with cycles of history, and the complex relationship between reason and madness.
