In Quest of God
In Quest of God is one of the world’s great spiritual classics, an autobiographical chronicle of Swami Ramdas’s year of mendicant wandering through the great pilgrimage sites of 1920s India. Ramdas’s third-person prose is simple, almost childlike, yet crisp, evocative, and ultimately disarming. It’s the perfect way to tell this story of spiritual awakening and radical trust in God. There is no other spiritual book quite like In Quest of God. Long out of print in the West, this 100th anniversary edition of In Quest of God was produced with the gracious approval of Anandashram Trust and combines the unabridged text of Anandashram’s current edition with the foreword and glossary from the edition published in the United States by Blue Dove Press (1994). This special edition contains more than 30 black-and-white photographs set in 1920s India.

Foucault's Strange Eros

What is the strange eros that haunts Foucault’s writing? In this deeply original consideration of Foucault’s erotic ethics, Lynne Huffer provocatively rewrites Foucault as a Sapphic poet. She uncovers eros as a mode of thought that erodes the interiority of the thinking subject. Focusing on the ethical implications of this mode of thought, Huffer shows how Foucault’s poetic archival method offers a way to counter the disciplining of speech. At the heart of this method is a conception of the archive as Sapphic: the past’s remains are, like Sappho’s verses, hole-ridden, scattered, and dissolved by time. Listening for eros across fragmented texts, Huffer stages a series of encounters within an archive of literary and theoretical readings: the eroticization of violence in works by Freud and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, the historicity of madness in the Foucault-Derrida debate, the afterlives of Foucault’s antiprison activism, and Monique Wittig’s Sapphic materialism. Through these encounters, Foucault’s Strange Eros conceives of ethics as experiments in living that work poetically to make the present strange. Crafting fragments that dissolve into Sapphic brackets, Huffer performs the ethics she describes in her own practice of experimental writing. Foucault’s Strange Eros hints at the self-hollowing speech of an eros that opens a space for the strange.
