Description

Explore the deep complexity of the Indian epic with Mahabharata Now: Narration, Aesthetics, Ethics. Published by Routledge, this volume treats the Mahabharata as both a historical archive and a living text that continues to evolve. It moves beyond simple storytelling to examine how the epic functions as an open text that remains relevant in a contemporary context. This collection of cross-disciplinary essays examines the connections between narration, aesthetics, and ethics. Readers will find new perspectives on the classic through the lens of pre-modern Indian narrative styles, poetics, and moral puzzles. The book also integrates Western theories regarding modern ethics, aesthetics, and metaphysics to provide a broad scholarly view.

It provides a deep look at the aesthetic codes and moral questions that make the epic a sourcebook for understanding both ancient and modern thought.
