Most of them<br \/>\nwere written between 1890 and 1910, a few between 1910 and 1920. The editors<br \/>\nhave arranged the material by topic in nine parts and two appendixes. Many of<br \/>\nthe pieces were published in journals or books during Sri Aurobindo&#8217;s lifetime.<br \/>\nThe others are reproduced from his manuscripts. The editors have checked all the<br \/>\ntexts against the relevant printed or manuscript versions. Simple editorial<br \/>\nproblems arising from incomplete revision, etc., are indicated by means of the<br \/>\nsystem explained in the Guide to Editorial Notation on the next page. More<br \/>\ncomplex problems are discussed in footnotes or in the Note on the Texts at the<br \/>\nend of the volume.<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"text-indent: 0pt;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0\">\n\t\t\t<span lang=\"en-gb\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<b><br \/>\n\t\t\t<font face=\"Times New Roman\" color=\"#000000\" size=\"4\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tGuide to Editorial Notation <\/font><\/b><br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"text-indent: 0pt;margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0\">\n\t\t\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"margin:0 50pt;text-indent: 0pt;line-height: 150%\">\n\t\t\t<span lang=\"en-gb\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<font face=\"Times New Roman\" color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tAbout half the material in this volume was not prepared by Aurobindo<br \/>\n\t\t\tfor publication.
