Vikramorvasiyam (Urvashi and Pururavas)
Author: Kālidāsa
Publisher: Global Vision Pub House
ISBN: 9788182200159
Category : Sanskrit drama
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Vikramorvasiyam Is A Famous Play Composed By Kalidasa In Five Acts Which Describes The Love Of Pururavas, The King Of Pratishthana, And Urvasi, A Heavenly Nymph (Apsaras). In This Play, Kalidasa Seems To Have Concentrated More On Characterization Than On Plot-Construction As He Has Done In The Malavikagnimitra. But The Most Debated Portion Of The Play Is Act Iv Where The Hero, Distracted By Separation, Gives Vent To His Feelings In Short, Sweet And Pathetic Lyrics. It Is Not A Long Narrative Or Descriptive Poem Which Can Be Read With Chosen Intervals Or Breaks. With A True Dramatic Instinct Kalidasa Turns This Long-Drawn Pathetic Scene Into A Musical Ballet, And He Makes A Dexterous Use Of Prakrit Suitable A For Music As Well As The Lonesome State Of The Hero.

From Little London to Little Bengal
Author: Daniel E. White
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421411652
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
How literary and religious traffic between Bengal and Britain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries impelled a complex and contested cosmopolitan imperial culture. From Little London to Little Bengal traces the traffic in culture between Britain and India during the Romantic period. To some, Calcutta appeared to be a “Little London,” while in London itself an Indianized community of returned expatriates was emerging as “Little Bengal.” Circling between the two, this study reads British and Indian literary, religious, and historical sources alongside newspapers, panoramas, religious festivals, idols, and museum exhibitions. Together and apart, Britons and Bengalis waged a transcultural agon under the dynamic conditions of early nineteenth-century imperialism, struggling to claim cosmopolitan perspectives and, in the process, to define modernity. Daniel E. White shows how an ambivalent Protestant contact with Hindu devotion shaped understandings of the imperial mission for Britons and Indians during the period. Investigating global metaphors of circulation and mobility, communication and exchange, commerce and conquest, he follows the movements of people, ideas, books, art, and artifacts initiated by writers, publishers, educators, missionaries, travelers, and reformers. Along the way, he places luminaries like Romantic poet Robert Southey and Hindu reformer Rammohun Roy in dialogue with a fascinating array of lesser-known figures, from the Baptist missionaries of Serampore and the radical English journalist James Silk Buckingham to the mixed-race prodigy Henry Louis Vivian Derozio. In concert and in conflict, these cultural emissaries and activists articulated national and cosmopolitan perspectives that were more than reactions on the part of marginal groups to the metropolitan center of power and culture. The British Empire in India involved recursive transactions between the global East and West, channeling cultural, political, and religious formations that were simultaneously distinct and shared, local, national, and transnational.
