Description

Explore the deep connections between ancient Indian epics and modern thought with this scholarly work from Routledge. The Mahabharata serves as both a complete sourcebook and an evolving text, offering a rich landscape for academic study. This volume examines the tension between modern discourses and ancient vocabulary to understand the complex nature of dharma, or righteousness. By looking at the epic through the lens of agency and action, this collection addresses what it means to be an ideal person and how to live a good life. The essays use interdisciplinary methods to study how the Mahabharata problematizes traditional concepts. This book is an essential resource for students, historians, and researchers interested in the political and ethical dimensions of Indian literature and the construction of moral identity.
