Situating Sri Aurobindo

10th October 2013peterheehs1613

My new Reader, Situating Sri Aurobindo, has been released by OUP India. It consists of 15 essays by noted scholars such as Kathleen Raine, Sugata Bose, J.N. Mohanty, Haridas Chaudhuri, Stephen Phillips, and Michael Stoeber on Sri Aurobindo’s poetry, social and political theory, philosophy, and spiritual writings, with introductions by me. It is available on Amazon.com and other online merchants. Take a look!
