Young Aurobindo's Vision: The Viziers of Bassora |
$12.99 $9.74 |
 |
| According to the author, though The Viziers of Bassora was Sri Aurobindo's first play, written when he was in his twenties, it reflected in a nascent form the concept of evolution of man discussed years later in The Life Divine.
The author argues that it should not be read in isolation as a simple play. This book shows how the play anticipates The Life Divine, and thus helps trace the evolution of Sri Aurobindo's thought and vision.

Vastuvidya Systems of Indian Architecture |
