Hardback. Zustand: Good. What does it mean to be good? 'Maryada' is a commonly used word for 'boundary' in Sanskrit which also means 'propriety of conduct'. In the context of the Ramayana, the word carries special weight because it comes to be used as the defining virtue of Rama, the 'maryada purushottama'. But despite the fact that Rama is regarded as the epitome of dharma in his thoughts and deeds, the Ramayana does not provide us with one single template for right action. Nor does it tell us that dharma is beyond the reach of human understanding and human action. On the contrary, it holds out the promise that everyone can and should search for a dharma they can believe in, a dharma that is vulnerable but all the more precious because it has been sought and found rather than given and received. In her thought-provoking new book, renowned Ramayana scholar Arshia Sattar writes with compassion, tenderness and insight about dharma as a multiplicity of appropriate choices, showing us that when we choose one way of being and doing over another, we will be as often wrong as we are right.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. The Kathasaritsagara - the ocean of stories - is among the world's great story collections, truly an ocean that carries the reader on its gentle swell to shores far and near, to places known and imagined, to people familiar and strange. Drawing from earlier collections of tales, the Kathasaritsagara was composed in Sanskrit by Somadeva in eleventh-century Kashmir. In a period and a language still largely dominated by religious texts, the Kathasaritsagara is a breath of fresh air. No set of beliefs dominates, no sacred texts are glorified - what it revels in most is the pulsating carnival of human life and experience. Priests and monks, gamblers and courtesans, kings and bandits, merchants and housewives, talking animals, divine and demonic beings - all cavort through its pages, in cities and forests, across seas and on islands. And in Arshia Sattar's masterful translation, the many universes of adventure the Kathasaritsagara holds within itself come alive for a new generation of readers.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Below the surface of the heroic narrative of kings and warriors and the triumph of good over evil, the heart of the Ramayana beats with the tender love story of Rama and Sita. Rama and Sita's love blossoms and grows during their years in the forest, as they learn more about each other and themselves. But the challenges they face in exile, both physical and emotional, take their toll, and by the time they return to Ayodhya, a shadow has been cast upon their love. The consequences are cataclysmic. Through these remarkable essays, we see Rama and Sita at their most human and their most vulnerable - as they face the pain of separation, the darkness of misunderstanding and suspicion, and tragic loss - and, therefore, at their most accessible as exemplars of the culture they have come to define.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Instead of being a tranquil denouement to a tale studded with dangerous adventure and emotional turbulence, Valmiki's Uttara Kanda is a shattering epilogue to a beloved story. Ravana has been defeated, and Rama and Sita have returned to Ayodhya. Rama is established on the throne that is rightfully his and spends his time listening to the stories that the sages tell him, which answer questions like: Why did Hanuman not know about his special powers? How is it that the mighty rakshasas were defeated by the monkeys? Why did Ravana never touch Sita when she was his prisoner? But these stories are punctuated by events such as the banishment of Sita and the killing of Shambuka. What is said and done in the Uttara Kanda forces us to reconsider the events of the Ramayana, urging us to read the epic through a new and disturbing lens.…
