\nLetters on Poetry and Art <\/i>comprises letters written by
\nSri Aurobindo on poetry and other forms of literature, painting and the other arts, beauty, aesthetics and the relation of these
\nto the practice of yoga. He wrote most of these letters to members of his ashram during the 1930s and 1940s, primarily
\nbetween 1931 and 1937. Only around a sixth of the letters were published during his lifetime. The rest have been transcribed
\nfrom his manuscripts. <\/span> <\/p>\n

\nThe present volume is the first collection of Sri Aurobindo’s
\nletters on poetry, literature, art and aesthetics to bear the title Letters on Poetry and Art<\/i>. It incorporates material from three
\nprevious books: (1) Letters on Poetry, Literature and Art<\/i>; (2) Letters on “Savitri”<\/i>, and (3)
\nOn Himself <\/i>(section entitled
\n“The Poet and the Critic”). It also contains around five hundred letters that
\nhave not appeared in any previous collection published under his name. The arrangement is that of the
\neditors. The texts of the letters have been checked against all available
\nmanuscripts and printed versions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
