Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the celebrated Indian epic poem Mahabharata, an Akhyana (legend) of the descendants of King Bharata. Primarily, the story follows the rivalry between the five sons of Pandu and the one hundred sons of Kuru. Woven into this central narrative are a vast number of subplots and digressions. The author recounts the education and marriages of the princes, their exile and adventures, the great war and ultimate victory of the Pandavas, their funeral obsequies, and their ascent of Mount Himavat. This legendary tale has been described by Sir William Jones as comparable to the epic poems of Greece and Rome. However, scholars have designated it categorically as an Akhyana because, by Hindu standards, a poem must have a single author, and the Mahabharata has been added to over centuries by many authors. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
