Mawlana Jalal al-Din Rumi was one of the greatest poets and mystics of the Islamic world. He was born in Balkh (Korasan) in AD 1207 and died in Konya (Turkey) in AD 1273. This book is an examination of his spiritual and literary heritage. As Annemarie Schimmel, the recipient of the Eleventh Giorgio Della Vida Award in Islamic Studies, has written, 'no other mystic and poet from the Islamic world is as well known in the West as Rumi', and she, more than any Western scholar, is his most celebrated and eloquent interpreter. The scholars who Professor Schimmel has invited to share in her tribute have all added new dimensions to an understanding of Rumi and to his impact on the Islamic world.

This Study Offers A Fresh Perspective On Mysticism In Literature, Relating And Balan¬Cing The Western And Eastern Approaches. It Specifically Looks At The Mystical Poetry Of Coventry Patmore The Francis Thompson Through New Doors Of Perception Available To The Intelligent, Sensitive Indian Scholar, From A Point Of View Important In The Study Of Both Poets. There Are Perceptive Discriminations Made Between Immanent And Transcendental Experience, Between Purgative And Illuminative Stages Of The Mystic Way, And All These Subtle Distinc¬Tions Are Illustrated From Individual Works Of The Two Poets.A Special Strength Of The Work Is Its Use Of The Stylistic Approach To Bring To Light Aspects Of The Delicate Relationship Between Mystical Experience And Its Articulation Through Literary Language. The Book Has A Strong Textual Base And Will Be Of Interest To The General Reader As Well As To The Specialist Eager To Explore Comparative Literary Contexts. ...Mr. Dhar Has Studied The Subject With Loving Care, And He Has Imposed His Own Insight Quietly But Firmly In A Way Which Can Justifiably Be Commended As Original Work. Professor J.R. Watson, University Of Durham, England ...The Analysis Of Patmore S Poetry In The Specific Context Of The Combination Of The Erotic With The Divine Is Important (Chap¬Ter Iii). This Is An Area In Which The Indian Bhakti Poets Have Composed Their Finest Poems...The Discussion Of The Transcen¬Dental And The Immanent Aspects Of Mysticism And Their Impact On Patmore And Thompson Is A Very Refreshing Part Of This Valuable Study And Deserves Appreciation. Professor V.A. Shahane, Osmania University, Hyderabad ...It Is One Of The Attractions Of The Present Book That Dr. Dhar, Writing From Within The Traditions Of India Adds A Further Ring, Learned In His Understanding Of Christianity, Especially In His Sense Of The Central Importance Of The Incarna¬Tion, He Adds The Insights Of Another Spirituality, Not Dissonant But Distinct And So Additionally Illuminating.

The mystic's moment of illumination shares with great poetry the liberating power of the deepest levels of consciousness. In the words of William Blake, "If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to a man as it is, infinite." Poetry, Wilson argues, is a contradiction of the habitual prison of daily life and shows the way to transcend the ordinary world through an act of intense attention-and intention. The poet, like the mystic, is subject to sudden ""peak experiences"" when ""everything we look upon is blessed."" W.B. Yeats, Dostoevsky, Gautama Buddha, Kazantzakis, Van Gogh, Rupert Brooke, Arunja, Nietzsche, A.L. Rouse, Jacob Boehme, Suzuki, Edgar Allan Poe: their visionary understanding can generate an awareness in each of us of our potential to open the floodgates of inner energy that creates mystic experience. Colin Wilson first received international acclaim in 1956 for The Outsider. ""Ever since I was thirteen, I have been obsessed by the question of the nature of mystical experience,"" he writes, and from that time he has been on a quest of the mystical in poetry, religion, and psychology.

This early work by Caroline Spurgeon was originally published in 1917 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Poetry in the Light of War' is a work of literary criticism on poetry written during wartime. Caroline Spurgeon was born on 24 October 1869, in India. She was educated at Cheltenham Ladies College, England and at King's College, London and also University College London. Spurgeon went on to become an esteemed literary critic, and was actually the first female professor of English literature. From 1900 onwards she lectured on the subject and was only the second female professor in England at the time. Through her various professional activities inside her own department, she participated in the academic literary-critical renaissance of the twenties and early thirties. She was an active militant in favour of women's eligibility to academic degrees and also advocated for more opportunities for foreign women to study in British Universities.
