Basava Bhashe - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Basava Bhashe refers to the distinctive communication style of the 12th-century reformer Basavanna and the Sharana movement in Karnataka. While not a formally defined linguistic term, it signifies the use of simple, direct Kannada in the Vachanas (rhythmic prose).This deliberate choice, contrasting with elite Sanskrit, aimed to make profound spiritual and social ideas accessible to all, including common people and marginalized groups.The content conveyed radical messages of social equality, critique of rituals, personal devotion (Bhakti), and ethical living."Basava Bhashe" thus represents a revolutionary deployment of vernacular language for social and spiritual reform.
