A very good copy indeed.Inscribed to Carpenter to Mrs. Wallace and dated 17 June 1911. This is a very nice first separate edition of part of Carpenter's London 1902 From Adam's Peak to Elephanta. It concerns the spiritual side of his journey and to wit there are photographic portraits of the Gnani and of Paramuguru Swami. Edward Carpenter was born at Brighton England and educated at Brighton College and Cambridge where he received his degree in Mathematics. For some time he was Fellow and Lecturer at Trinity Hall: he was eventually ordained and held a curacy under the Rev. Frederick D. Maurice. But his views were developing; he was not satisfied with the old myths and the old routine; and in 1874 he relinquished his fellowship and orders and left Cambridge. He now lectured in connection with the University Extension movement in northern towns incidentally studying social and economic conditions and thinking out a system of life and philosophy. In 1883 he settled on a small farm near Sheffield and devoted his time to literary work market gardening sandal making and socialist propaganda. The next year he visited Walt Whitman and the United States. The two poets had much in common: each influenced the other. Returning to his own country Carpenter continued to write his books and cultivate his garden. He was now considered rather dangerously unconventional as he persisted in living according to his own ideas and Nature's rather than those approved of. A poet and writer Carpenter was a close friend of Rabindranath Tagore and a friend of Walt Whitman. He corresponded with many famous figures such as Annie Besant Isadora Duncan Havelock Ellis Roger Fry Mahatma Gandhi Keir Hardie J. K. Kinney Jack London George Merrill E. D. Morel William Morris Edward R. Pease John Ruskin and Olive Schreiner. As a philosopher he is particularly known for his publication of Civilisation Its Cause and Cure in which he proposes that civilisation is a form of disease that human societies pass through. An early advocate of sexual freedoms he had an influence on both D. H. Lawrence and Aurobindo and inspired E. M. Forster's novel Maurice. One of England's most treasured eccentrics.
