... I have pointed to "a sensuous felicity peculiar to Kalidasa" in it. Who would dream of ascribing anything "super-spiritual" to that supreme poet of artistic eroticism? The English critic Banning Richardson who reviewed at some length in The Aryan Path (March 1944) the two volumes of Sri Aurobindo's Collected Poems and Plays picked out Love and Death and the earlier Urvasie after writing: "These... poetic spirit, and sometimes ascend to heights of great beauty and power. What will strike the English-speaking reader is the amazing mastery of the English language that the writer has attained." Richardson did not know of either Ilion or Savitri which were still unpublished, except for 380 lines of the former. He regarded Urvasie and Love and Death as Sri Aurobindo's greatest works, most abundant ...
... Still this external motive and method are native to the English mind and with many modifications have put their strong impress upon the literature. It is the ostensible method of English fiction from Richardson to Dickens; it got into the Elizabethan drama and prevented it, except in Shakespeare, from equalling the nobler work of other great periods of dramatic poetry. It throws its limiting shade over ...

... arch of a bridge of human thought and endeavour which leads from the Vedic beginnings to the present, and transcends the ordinary limits of human consciousness". And the English novelist, Dorothy Richardson, once wrote to the present writer after reading The Life Divine: "Has there ever existed a more synthetic consciousness than that of Sri Aurobindo? Unifying he is to the limit of the term." ...

... an immediate, a strong, though not an enduring influence; the newly created Russian literature has been, though more subtly, among the most intense of recent cultural forces. But if we leave aside Richardson and Scott and, recently, Dickens in fiction and in poetry the very considerable effects of the belated continental discovery of Shakespeare and the vehement and sudden wave of the Byronic influence ...
... true that they have differed in the poems they have chosen; Andrews cited particularly the Rishi and the epigram on Goethe as proof of his description of me as a great poet; an English critic, Richardson, singled out Urvasie and Love and Death and the more romantic poems, but thought that some of my later work was less inspired, too intellectual and philosophical, too much turned towards thought ...
... On Quantitative Metre included in Collected Poems and Plays, two volumes published in 1942. Here he touches also upon several problems related to poetry at large. An English reviewer, Banning Richardson, writing in The Aryan Path of March 1944, remarks about this "admirable essay" that it is "an essay which deserves wide currency and consideration by all those interested in the future of English ...
... Remain Holland described Sri Aurobindo as "the completest synthesis that has been realised to this day of the genius of Asia and the genius of Europe". The English novelist Dorothy M.

Maitra 2 has d ...
... inspiration in the legendary or mythical stories of Antigone, Medea and Eurydice; other dramatists too—Andre Gide, Jean Giradoux, Jean-Paul Sartre, John Cocteau, Eugene O'Neill, Tennessee Williams, Jack Richardson—have found the ancient Greek myths susceptible to transplantation on the soil of our uncertain, agonised, tortuous modern consciousness. Dr Richards is thus right in describing the ...

... As for Berdyaev, his postulation of Nature's 'transfiguration' is rather suggestive in the context of the Aurobindonian postulation of a supramental transformation of man and Nature. Dorothy M.

... mind's temporary movements getting in the way of the intuition. The errors of Goethe and Bankim were only an overestimation of a genius or a talent that was new and therefore attractive at the time. Richardson's Pamela was after all the beginning of modern fiction. As I have said, the general intuition does not work at once and with a mechanical accuracy. Overestimation of a contemporary is frequent; ...
