Author: Madabhushi Krishnamachariar
Publisher: Motilal Banarsidass Publishe
ISBN: 9788120802841
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 1294
Book Description
The present work is an analytical account of classical Sanskrit literature in its historical perspective. It is divided into six books, containing several chapters, each dealing with a particular branch of Sanskrit learning. The work is full of references; the footnotes refer to a variety of sources, legendary, inscriptional, numismatic, architectural and literary. The writer has exploited all the relevant material of the journals, catalogues, annals, reports and other documents in discussing the vexed problems of the date, place, genealogy of the authors and the literary tendencies of their compositions. His methodology of literary criticism is rationalistic and bears the stamp of the modern scientific age. The elaborate index, the critical introduction, the exhaustive bibliography, the list of abbreviations, the table of transliteration and a supplement are the most useful additions to this interesting and instructive work of literary history.

The Concept of Bharatavarsha and Other Essays
Author: B. D. Chattopadhyaya
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 1438471750
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
This exploration of key terms related to social and political order, found in early Indian texts, challenges the idea of a unified ancient India and a unified national identity at that time. This collection explores what may be called the idea of India in ancient times. Its undeclared objective is to identify key concepts which show early Indian civilization as distinct and differently oriented from other formations. The essays focus on ancient Indian texts within a variety of genres. They identify certain key termssuch as janapada, desa, var?a, dharma, bh?vain their empirical contexts to suggest that neither the ideas embedded in these terms nor the idea of Bharatavarsha as a whole are given entities, but that they evolved historically. Professor Chattopadhyaya examines these texts to unveil historical processes. Without denying comparative history, he stresses that the internal dynamics of a society are best decoded via its own texts. His approach bears very effectively on understanding ongoing interactions between Indias Great Tradition and Little Traditions. As a whole, this book is critical of the notion of overarching Indian unity in the ancient period. It punctures the retrospective thrust of hegemonic nationalism as an ideology that has obscured the diverse textures of Indian civilization. Renowned for his scholarship on the ancient Indian past, Professor Chattopadhyayas latest collection only consolidates his high international reputation.
