The Future Poetry with on Quantitative Metre - Gyan Books

About The Book: In *The Future Poetry*, Sri Aurobindo explores the evolution and potential of poetry as a medium for expressing the deepest spiritual and aesthetic truths of the human soul. He critiques past and present poetic traditions while envisioning a future poetry that unites inspiration, rhythm, and profound inner vision. He emphasizes the mantric word—language that carries spiritual force—as the hallmark of great poetry. In the section on **Quantitative Metre**, he examines the possibility of adapting classical metrical systems, like those of Sanskrit and Greek, to English, aiming for a more harmonious and spiritually resonant poetic form aligned with inner experience.
