Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Investigation of Some of Kalidasa's Views: A Dissertation The relations of any great writer to the world of opinions about him, are always an interesting study. The influence of such a man upon his contemporaries is often so great, that a knowledge Of his character and ideas becomes a necessary element in any real comprehension of his times. Neverthe less, this dissertation can make no claims to show how Ixalidasa influenced the world in which he lived. The details of his life being totally unknown, his very date being under discussion, and historical knowledge of the Opinions which preceded and which followed him being more or less undetermined and subject of controversy, it is to a great degree impossible to do any more than to imagine the extent of the influence which he must have had. °there remains. However, a much humbler task which gives rise to this investigation. This is to gather from the works of Kalidasa his utterances upon some particular subjects, and to show, however imperfectly it may be, what he thought and said concerning them. Although the work under taken here is thus very restricted in scope, it is hoped that it will nevertheless not be altogether useless. Kalidasa occupies so prominent a place in Sanskrit literature, that any investiga tion which deals with him and his thoughts and literary creations wins on that very account an importance to which it in itself might not be able to lay claim. This dissertation has there fore been written in the hope that it may prove to be some slight contribution to a fuller understanding of Kalidasa. Of course, such an investigation can in one sense offer nothing new. It has necessarily to deal with beliefs and practices already well known. Its sole claim to newness and to consider ation must therefore be in its attempt to show how these familiar things appear in the writings of the great dramatist. It is likewise to be remarked that in these pages there will be no attempt to compare the views of Kalidasa with those of others who also gave themselves to literature as such. There will, however, be found here and there some statements of the agreement or disagreement of Kalidasa's views with the instruc tions of the codes of Manu, Vishnu, Apastamba, and Gautama.

This book was released on 2020-03-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of ‘AbhijñānaŚākuntalam’ has to situate the contexts in ancient through medieval Indian literature and scholarship before it comes to the colonial and the contemporary. In epistemological privileging, this text has become either a Hindoo play in the colonial, Hindu drama in the Hindutva and a love story in the Western theoretical paradigms of scholarship. The essays in ‘Memory, Metaphor and Mysticism in Kalidasa’s ‘AbhijñānaŚākuntalam’ attempt to restore contexts, especially philosophical contexts, for reading this play.
