Description: This is a card signed by Sir Edwin Arnold (1832-1904), a notable English poet, journalist, translator, and educator. Initially a schoolmaster, and later the Principal of the Deccan College in India, Arnold's experiences abroad influenced his literary endeavors. Arnold's poem, THE LIGHT OF ASIA, an exploration of Buddhist philosophy through the life of Prince Gautama (the Buddha), earned him widespread acclaim. Arnold is also well-known for his translation ofthe Bhagavad Gita from Sanskrit into English,under the title THE SONG CELESTIAL. Arnold's personal life was marked by multiple marriages, including one to a Japanese woman, reflecting his deep engagement with Japanese culture as evidenced in his writings. An advocate for vegetarianism, he played a significant role in the West London Food Reform Society alongside figures like Mahatma Gandhi. Arnold died at the age of 77, in London, in 1904. The signature is in ink. It was clipped from a letter, and then glued to a card. The autograph comes with a certificate of authenticity from JG Autographs. Shipping is FREE via USPS First Class Mail.
