Music in Valmiki's Ramayana |
$115.49 $86.62 |
|
| The literary and cultural heritage of the Ramayana and Indian classical music are both living traditions and key constituents of the Indian identity. It is indeed impossible to imagine an India, of the past, present or future, without either. Reference to this musical tradition in the Ramayana, the earliest literary work in classical Sanskrit, is therefore a propitious context in which a composite legacy of Music-Literature may be examined. Ramayana has a fundamental association with music. The... |

|
| The Kuttani-mata of Damodaragupta is one of the few works in the history of classical Sanskrit literature the time and locale of the composition whereof can be ascertained with a fair degree of certainty.

A critical study of the internal evidence indicates that the work was... |

Indian Philosophy and Text Science |
$31.99 $23.99 |

| The present book aims at clarifying various aspects of Indian philosophy by applying concepts used in text science towards their analysis. Text science attempts to establish universal rules which apply to all forms of human expression. If we regard all human expression, "including behavior', as communication, it contains a meaning-system whether it has the form of language or not.
Human expression may be classified as language, figure, body action, and so forth; we consider all these forms of... |

Bhagaban Panda |
Pre-Gangesa Concept of Lingaparamarsa |
$17.99 $13.49 |
|
| There are number of controversies in accepting paramarsa as a key-factor in Inference. The Naiyayikas hold clearly an objective view of the paramarsa as an 'immediate cause of the process of Inference'. But the systems like Mimamsa, Buddhists etc. hold a subjective view of the concept. To them, this is just a conceptual fiction designed by the Naiyayikas having no practical reality.
The present work, therefore, attempts to settle down both the parties by high-lighting their standpoints. After... |
