Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ocean of Story, Vol. 1 of 10: Being C. H. Tawney's Translation of Somadeva's Kathā Sarit Sāgara (or Ocean of Streams of Story) Have been asked by Mr Penzer to write a Foreword to the first volume of his great work on the Katha Sarit Sagara, but when I observe the research that he has bestowed upon it and read the lists of those whose assistance he has secured, I cannot but feel much diffidence in comply ing with his request. I can, however, take this opportunity of saying what it has long been in my mind to say about the books and papers that this gigantic collection of Indian folk-tales has from time to time called forth. I am also somewhat encouraged to do this by the attitude of Mr Penzer towards his own important efforts, as it is clear that he does not look on them otherwise than as a continuation of the research that has been already devoted to the collections; for despite the exhaustive nature of his Appendix IV to this volume, his last paragraph - the very last of the whole volume - runs thus More than this it is impossible to say. Much research still remains to be done on this highly important anthropological problem. It is in this spirit that I, too, propose to approach the subject of the Katha Sarit Sagara - the Ocean of Story-and what I am now about to say points to further research being necessary, a proposition Mr Penzer would, I take it, be the last person to controvert. Nevertheless, I wish to say at once that Mr Penzer's notes to the text, short and long, and the four fine appendices on folk-lore to this volume - viz. On Mythical Beings, the Use of Collyrium and Kohl, the Cravings of Pregnant Women motif, and Sacred Prostitution - fulfil to my mind the purpose for which they are written, and must always be a mine into which students can delve with profit. They are a good augury for the value of the information he has in store for scholars in the volumes that are to follow. Anything that I may remark, therefore, which savours of criticism is said only with the Object Of assisting the research he has so gallantly and so usefully undertaken to promote.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Katha Sarit Sagara, or Ocean of the Streams of Story, Vol. 1: Translated From the Original Sanskrit Once on a time* Brahma and Narayana roaming through the world in order to behold me, came to the foot of Himavat. Then they beheld there in front of them a great ame-linga 1 in order to discover the end of it, one of them went up, and the other down; and when they could not find the end of it, they proceeded to propitiate me by means of austeri ties: and I appeared to them and bade them ask for some boon: hearing that Brahma asked me to become his son; on that account he has ceased to be worthy of worship, disgraced by his overweening presumption. Then that god Narayana craved a boon of me, saying - Oh revered one, may I become devoted to thy service Then he became incarnate, and was born as mine in thy form; for thou art the same as Narayana, the power of me all-powerful.

Penzer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ocean of Story, Being C. H. Tawney's Translation of Somadeva's Katha Sarit Sagara (or Ocean of Streams of Story), Vol. 1 of 10 Charles Henry Tawney was the son of the Rev. Richard Tawney, vicar of Willoughby, whose wife was a sister of Dr Bernard, of Clifton. From Rugby, which he entered while the great days of Dr Arnold were still a recent memory, he went to Trinity College, Cambridge, where he greatly distinguished himself. He was Bell University Scholar in 1857, and Davies University Scholar and Scholar of Trinity in the following year. In 1860 he was bracketed Senior Classic and was elected a Fellow of his college. For the next four years he worked as a Fellow and Tutor at Trinity, but though he had obviously excellent prospects of academical work at home, considerations of health induced him to seek employment in India. In 1865 he was selected to occupy the Chair of History in the Presidency College, just then vacated by Professor E. Byles Cowell. Mr Tawney filled this Chair with great credit from 1866 to 1872; in the latter year he was appointed Professor of English. In 1875 he officiated as Principal in the place of Mr James Sutcliffe, and on the latter's death, in the following year, his position as Principal was confirmed. This office he held from 1876 to 1892, with breaks for short periods, during which he either went home on leave or was called upon to officiate as Director of Public Instruction in the then undivided province of Bengal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ocean of Story, Vol. 8 of 10: Being C. H. Tawney's Translation of Somadeva's Katha Sarit Sagara (or Ocean of Streams of Story) It is a high honour but also something of an embarrassment to an amateur to be invited to figure among the distinguished specialists who have contributed introductions to the previous volumes of this great edition, in which Mr Penzer's learning continues to enliven and illuminate fold after sinuous fold of one of the world's great story-books. My friend Professor Rand not long ago delighted a large audience by denning a specialist as "the man who knows more and more about less and less," and it is certainly the experience of one whose special studies lie mainly in another direction that it is not easy to keep abreast of the increasing literature of his hobbies. Nor perhaps does the eighth volume particularly lend itself to an introduction by a student of marchen. It is a good deal taken up with what may rather be called epic themes of the warfare of gods and supernatural beings, which are interesting mainly from the literary point of view. How differently, it strikes the reader, would either Homer, Milton or Wagner have managed these contests, and to Western taste how marred is the interest of the Indian narrative by Oriental hyperbole and the too convenient recourse to magical powers and reincarnations for resolving tragic knots. This contrast indeed raises not uninteresting matters of literary aesthetic. I can remember suffering similar disillusionment when as a boy I stumbled upon Ellis's Specimens of the Early English Romances and learned how magical sources of prowess could blunt the edge of heroic exploits.
