Soft cover. Zustand: New. The book aspires to do for Indian poetics what Hudson's book, An Introduction to the Study of English Literature did for English literature, though in a totally different manner and style. It provides the student with the essential knowledge about almost all aspects of Indian poetics. Based on the origi…nal Sanskrit sources, it presents the necessary information lucidly in precise and clear terms. Each chapter is self-contained and complete in itself, with explanatory notes, and a bibliography of relevant works. The Sanskrit terms used in the text are invariably explained or provided with English equivalents. For quick reference, "A Glossary of Sanskrit Literary Terms" is given in the Appendices, which contain also "A List of Noted Indian Poeticians (including commentators) and Their Works" and "Notes on Major Texts in Indian Poetics". This handy volume, with its unique features, will prove invaluable to those who are going to embark on the study of Indian poetics, especially the ones who have no Sanskrit background. To a devoted student, it will prove a useful companion during his/her further studies. Contents: Forewor/ Kapil Kapur. Preface Scheme of Transliteration I. Introduction 1.
