Sri Aurobindo's writings on himself (excluding the letters in volume 35) and other material of historical importance.
Sri Aurobindo's writings on himself (excluding the letters in volume 35, Letters on Himself and the Ashram) and other material of historical importance. The volume is divided into four parts: (1) brief life sketches, autobiographical notes, and corrections of statements made by others in biographies and other publications; (2) letters of historical interest to family, friends, political and professional associates, public figures, etc; also letters on yoga and spiritual life to disciples and others; (3) public statements and other communications on Indian and world events; (4) public statements and notices concerning Sri Aurobindo's ashram and yoga. Much of the material is being published here for the first time in a book.
THEME/S
The...articles that Sri Aurobindo contributed to Arya under the general caption, The Future Poetry, [were] initially inspired by a book of Dr. Cousins's: in the fullness of time, however, the review became a treatise of over three hundred pages of Arya.
[Altered to:] ... started initially with a review of a book of Dr. Cousins's; but that was only a starting point for a treatise ...
It was not the intention to make a long review of Cousins' book, that was only a starting point; the rest was drawn from Sri Aurobindo's own ideas and his already conceived view of art and life.
