Book Synopsis Panchali's Pledge by : Subramania Bharati
Download or read book Panchali's Pledge written by Subramania Bharati and published by Hachette India. This book was released on 2013-02-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honoured at a public function when he was a mere boy of eleven with the title 'Bharati' (one blessed by Saraswati, the Goddess of Learning), C. Subramania Bharati (1882-1921) is renowned as the herald of the renaissance in Tamil literature. The simplicity and lyricism that marked his poetry reflect a clear shift in sensibility and craft from the classical tradition, which had adhered to strictures of style, imagery and language for over 2000 years. Panchali's Pledge is the English translation of Bharati's seminal work, Panchali Sabadham, which reimagines the pivotal Game of Dice incident in the Mahabharata, where coerced into playing a game of dice by Duryodhana and Sakuni, Yudhisthira, the eldest of the Pandavas, stakes and loses his kingdom, his wealth, his brothers and finally Draupadi, leading to her disrobing and her rescue by the divine intervention of Lord Krishna. Enraged at the quiet indifference of those present in the assembly at her plight, Draupadi finally takes a pledge to avenge her ignominy with the blood of the Kauravas. Bharati wrote and published the first of the two-part minor epic in 1912 while living in the French territory of Pondicherry to escape British persecution. It was intended as a political allegory to the ongoing freedom movement and as an affirmation of the latent power in women. Usha Rajagopalan's translation seeks to complement what Bharati himself set out to do with the original text: to 'create an epic using simple phrases, a simple style, easily understood prosody and rhythm which the common man appreciates.'

Book excerpt: From getting married twice to settling in the exquisite Maya Bhavan, everything went well for Sahadeva and his family until those from Hastinapura put an unacceptable demand before them. Then, while carrying out military expeditions, Sahadeva got the vastest region to cover. Sahadeva knew the future since the past. He hoped for it to never become the present. And then, he realized that HE was a medium in carrying out what Destiny demanded! Yet, from being ‘Sahadeva Undercover’ to doing something exceptional during their thirteenth year of staying undercover, one would hardly not believe that Sahadeva had everything covered. But then, Sahadeva had realized that he was what he hadn’t wanted anyone to be. With a war round the corner, how will Sahadeva come to terms with himself?

Book Synopsis Tamil Heroic Poetry by : K. Kailasapathy
Download or read book Tamil Heroic Poetry written by K. Kailasapathy and published by Hachette India. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An elegant and thorough examination of the riches of Sangam poetry In this acclaimed comparative study, K. Kailasapathy, the celebrated Sri Lankan academic and critic, introduces and interprets ancient Tamil poems and examines the stylistic heritage, themes and motifs pervading Sangam poetry while building the literary corpus's bridge to heroic poetry in other languages - most notably Greek. He identifies the formulaic expression, stock phrases and overarching sensibilities pervasive in the poems and, going much against the popular grain, expands on the notion that oral verse-making is central to Sangam poetry. A nod to Milman Parry, this deeply necessary exploration of our neglected past is an engaging and accessible discourse on one of our most fertile literary ages and, with much agility, connects the dots in studying early Tamil poetry for a modern reader.
Book Synopsis India’s Epic, Vyasar’s ‘Mahabharata’ by : SHIV SHANKAR
Download or read book India’s Epic, Vyasar’s ‘Mahabharata’ written by SHIV SHANKAR and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-02-28 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers probably wonder why Shiv Shankar chooses mostly ancient Puranas as themes for his books. It is because in this “Kali Yuga”, the whole world is in great turmoil. People do not bother about “Dharma”, dogmas or principles. Everywhere, there is corruption, nepotism, favouritism and partiality. In short, people do not believe in leading a righteous life. In this scenario, a solution can only be found in ancient Sreriptures and Upanishads. In this great Indian epic, we find all kinds and aspects of human beings. There is nothing under the sun that has been set aside in this immortal work. For example, in one supreme protagonist, we find a high sense of paternal affection and respects unparalleled in mankind; he comes forward to make a big sacrifice. Another character is prepared to lead her life with her blind husband by closing her eyes with a piece of cloth throughout her life. Villainy, cruelty, ruthless and unscrupulous attitudes are seen in another important yet evil character. The highest degree of gratitude is portrayed in another who is known for his valour and heroism. There are so many other innumerable affections which will be seen with awe, wonder and admiration when anyone starts reading this great epic.

For film and Ray enthusiasts, this is a treasure trove, and for a whole new generation of filmgoers, including those who might not even have seen the film yet, it will reveal a process unfolding, a mind at work. As for connoisseurs of the graphic form, Ray's sketches are legend, and the novelistic qualities of this particular sketchbook have been the matter of intense discussion.
