Download or read book The Comparative Study of Traditional Asian Literatures written by Vladimir Braginsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the first ever published introduction to the comparative study of traditional Asian literatures, embracing three vast literary zones: Arab-Islamic, Indo-South East Asian and Sino-Far Eastern. The aim of the book is to outline the main properties of Asian literatures in the period of 'reflective traditionalism' (the early centuries CE to the first half of the 19th century), when the creation of a vast body of aesthetically significant works was coupled with the emergence of literary self-awareness: when the nature of the creative process, the poetics and functions of the literary works, and the ways of their influence on the reader were thoroughly comprehended and committed to writing for the first time. The book is intended for specialists in Asian literatures, comparative literature, and literary theory, and for students of these topics.

Download or read book Sanskrit Non Translatables written by Rajiv Malhotra and published by Manjul Publishing. This book was released on with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sanskrit Non-Translatables is a path-breaking and audacious attempt at Sanskritizing the English language and enriching it with powerful Sanskrit words. It continues the original and innovative idea of nontranslatability of Sanskrit, first introduced in the book, Being Different. For English readers, this should be the starting point of the movement to resist the digestion of Sanskrit into English, by introducing loanwords into their English vocabulary without translation. The book presents a thorough mechanism of the process of digestion and examines the loss of adhikara for Sanskrit because of translating its core ideas into English. The movement launched by this book will resist this and stop the programs that seek to turn Sanskrit into a dead language by translating all its treasures to render it redundant. It discusses fifty-four non-translatables across various genres that are being commonly mistranslated. It empowers English speakers with the knowledge and arguments to introduce these Sanskrit words into their daily speech with confidence. Every lover of India’s sanskriti will benefit from the book and become a cultural ambassador propagating it through routine communications.

Download or read book Theatre and Its Other written by Elisa Ganser and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Dance? What is Theatre? What is the boundary between enacting a character and narrating a story? When does movement become tinted with meaning? And when does beauty shine alone as if with no object? These universal aesthetic questions find a theoretically vibrant and historically informed set of replies in the oeuvre of the eleventh-century Kashmirian author Abhinavagupta. The present book offers the first critical edition, translation, and study of a crucial and lesser known passage of his commentary on the Nāṭyaśāstra, the seminal work of Sanskrit dramaturgy. The nature of dramatic acting and the mimetic power of dance, emotions, and beauty all play a role in Abhinavagupta’s thorough investigation of performance aesthetics, now presented to the modern reader.
Download or read book Bardic Destinies written by Krishna R. Kanchith and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-17 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume critically explores the cultural significance and fate of the “literary” in the European and the Indian traditions as it traces the history of the reception of works that have had a deep hold on the lives and sensibilities of people across time and cultures. The book grapples with three major concepts in the humanities—the literary, the philosophical/theological and the historical. It looks at Homer’s reception by Plato; Virgil’s reception by Christianity; the many responses that The Mahabharata has received over centuries and across cultures in India; and the reception of Kumaravyasa’s Kumaravyasabharata, among other works, and analyses the understanding of truth, time and history that influence the reading of these works in different times and cultural contexts. Part of the Critical Humanities across Cultures series, this book will be useful for scholars and researchers of philosophy, literature, history, comparative literature, cultural studies and post-colonial studies.
Download or read book An Epitome of Indian Aesthetics and Fine Arts Sanskrit Poetics written by Dr. Thiagarajan Rajagopal and published by Rudra Publications. This book was released on with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a primer to Understand the History and Development of Alankara Sastra. It will be an easy reading for Sanskrit and useful for students of other literature too! In Sanskrit there are several synonyms of ‘beauty’,—‘Saundarya’, ‘Caruta’, ‘Ramaniyata’,‘Saubhagya’, ‘Sobha’, ‘Lavanya’, ‘Kanti’, ‘Vicchitti’, and so forth. But the most frequently adopted key-term of aesthetics is Alankara. That is why Alankara-sastra should be translated as the science of beauty. Its widest meaning is adequately stressed by Vamana who aphoristically states — “Saundaryam alankarah.” Since ‘alankara’ can also mean a ‘means of beauty’, it can denote poetic and artistic devices also. In the Rgveda itself we have the use of the word aramkrti which is cognate with the later word alankara and which gives rise to the Indian name of aesthetics, namely, Alankarasastra. The Vedic term has a double connotation — one aesthetic and the other magical.
