Description

Jain Ramayana Narratives: Moral Vision and Literary Innovation examines how Jain authors across different historical periods rewrote the Rama story, creating distinct interpretations rooted in religious philosophy and literary creativity. This scholarly work traces the evolution of Jain Rama compositions across more than 800 years, demonstrating how successive authors drew inspiration from the narrative's plot, characters, and compositional history to explore innovative conceptions of moral personhood. By situating these texts within South Asian religious and literary frameworks, the book reveals how the Rama story became a vehicle for expressing competing visions of ethics, spirituality, and human virtue within Jain traditions. Essential for scholars of Jainism, Sanskrit literature, and comparative religious narratives.

Key Features

Published by Routledge as part of the Advances in Jaina Studies series, offering scholarly authority on Jain religious texts and philosophy.

Examines three distinct versions of the Rama story composed by two authors separated by over 800 years, illustrating literary and theological evolution.

Situates Jain Ramayana narratives within broader South Asian religious history and literature, connecting them to larger cultural contexts.

Analyses how plot and character development in the Rama story inspired Jain authors to create novel expressions of moral personhood and ethical philosophy.

Combines literary criticism with religious studies, appealing to academics in Jainism, Sanskrit studies, and comparative religion.
