| Περίληψη: | Sanskrit narrative is the lifeblood of Indian culture,
encapsulating and perpetuating insights and values central to Indian thought and
practice. This volume brings together eighteen of the foremost scholars across
the globe, who, in an unprecedented collaboration, accord these texts the
integrity and dignity they deserve. The last time this was attempted, on a much
smaller scale, was a generation ago, with Purāṇa Perennis (1993). The
pre-eminent contributors to this landmark collection use novel methods and
theory to meaningfully engage Sanskrit narrative texts, showcasing the state of
contemporary scholarship on the Sanskrit epics and purāṇas.
