Descrizione

About The Book: This book addresses the absence of a comprehensive history of Sanskrit literature in English. It highlights the importance of understanding this literature, both for its intrinsic merit and for its insights into Indian culture. The author, taking advantage of over twenty years of study and teaching, explores the need for such a work. The book aims to provide a clear and up-to-date account of Sanskrit literature, delving into its cultural and historical significance, and includes bibliographical notes for further research. The author also discusses the transliteration of Sanskrit words for English readers. Furthermore, the book encompasses a broad spectrum of subjects, including the Vedic Period, the Rigveda, its poetry and philosophy, the Rigvedic Age, the Later Vedas, the Brahma?as, the Sutras, the Epics, Kavya or Court Epic, Lyric Poetry, the Drama, Fairy Tales and Fables, Philosophy, and the interaction between Sanskrit Literature and the West.
