The Haravijayam of Rajanaka Ratnakara |
$60.99 $45.74 |
 |
| The Haravijaya of Ratnakara is an epic poem (mahakavya) belonging to the era of artificial poetry.
The mahakavya is not oral poetry; it is artificial and learned; it lays more importance on description than narration. Its only claim to the term epic lies in its breadth of content. A great kavya takes its plot from myth or from history; it must further the four ends of man; it must contain descriptions of cities, seas, mountains, moonrise, and sunrise. A great kavya should also be ornamented... |

Sri Aurobindo: His Poetry and Poetic Theory |
$7.99 $5.99 |
|
| From the blurb:
Sri Aurobindo's poetry cannot be properly judged by the traditional canons of criticism. He has created his own aesthetics, the 'overmind aesthetics' as he calls it and a proper estimate of his poetry 'overhead' Poetry is possible on the basis of his Poetics.
The present work offers a new approach of understanding Sri Aurobindo's Poetry in the context of his Poetic Theory. His Poetry and Poetic Theory extend our sensibilities to new areas of thought and... |

The Birth of Savitr |
$6.49 $4.87 |
|
| Short poetic contemplations on each canto of Savitri.
The author "attempts an accurate subjective impression of each canto but through a personal retelling, using a focused mystic style. Bringing to this the aspiration for the overhead word, his poem becomes a seeking for the mantra -- a mantra that will capture the heart of the grand mantra that is Savitri, in other words, Savitri's bija." Also included are a Resume of Savitri, and notes on the Legend and the... |

Rabindranath Tagore |
A Hundred Devotional Songs of Tagore |
$11.95 $8.96 |
|
| Devotion is dedication of the self to the All Serene. To Rabindranath
Tagore, it is more than mere dedication. It is a vrata to be in perfect unison
with the Vratapati, the Lord of askance in sincerity, purity and poignance.
To be christened with the spirituality of Tagore in the most intrinsic and poignant pattern is to muse and re-muse his devotional songs, and in doing so, one cannot but discover within oneself the lotus-land of spiritual excellence. Indeed, somewhere in the heartland... |
