Download or read book The Flight of Love written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a sleepless night spent longing for his absent wife Sita, Rama, god-prince and future king, surveyed his army camps on a clear autumn morning and spied a white goose playing in a pond of lotus flowers. Seeing this radiant creature who so resembled his lost beloved, he began to plead with the bird to give her a message of love and fierce revenge. This is the setting of the Hamsasandesa A Message for the Goose, a sandesa or "messenger poem" by the medieval saint-poet and philosopher Venkatanatha, a seminal figure for the Srivaisnava religious community of Tamil Nadu, South India, and a master poet in Sanskrit and Tamil. In The Flight of Love, Steven P. Hopkins situates Venkatanatha's Sanskrit sandesa within the wider comparative context of South Indian and Sri Lankan literatures. He traces the significance of messenger poetry in the construction of sacred landscapes in pre-modern South Asia and explores the ways the Hamsasandesa re-envisions the pan-Indian story of Rama and Sita, rooting its protagonists in a turbulent emotional world where separation, overwhelming desire, and anticipated bliss, are written into the living particularized bodies of lover and beloved, in the "messenger" goose and in the landscapes surrounding them. Hopkins's translation of the Hamsasandesa into fluid American English verse is framed by a comparative introduction, including an extended essay on translation, detailed linguistic notes, and an expanded thematic commentary that weaves together traditional religious interpretations of the poem with themes of contemporary literary relevance.
Book Synopsis Language, Culture and Power by : C. T. Indra
Download or read book Language, Culture and Power written by C. T. Indra and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the relationship between language and power across cultural boundaries. It evaluates the vital role of translation in redefining culture and ethnic identity. During the first phase of colonialism, mid-18th to late-19th century, the English-speaking missionaries and East India Company functionaries in South India were impelled to master Tamil, the local language, in order to transact their business. Tamil also comprised ancient classical literary works, especially ethical and moral literature, which were found especially suited to the preferences of Christian missionaries. This interface between English and Tamil acted as a conduit for cultural transmission among different groups. The essays in this volume explore the symbiotic relation between English and Tamil during the late colonial and postcolonial as also the modernist and the postmodernist periods. The book showcases the modernity of contemporary Tamil culture as reflected in its literary and artistic productions — poetry, fiction, short fiction and drama — and outlines the aesthetics, philosophy and methodology of these translations. This volume and its companion (which looks at the period between 1750 to 1900 CE) cover the late colonial and postcolonial era and will be of interest to students, scholars and researchers of translation studies, literature, linguistics, sociology and social anthropology, South Asian studies, colonial and postcolonial studies, literary and critical theory as well as culture studies.

Book Synopsis In Praise of Swāmi Vedānta Deśika by : Gop?l ?r?niv?san
Download or read book In Praise of Swāmi Vedānta Deśika written by Gop?l ?r?niv?san and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-08-22 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This year is the 751th birth anniversary (1268 AD- 1369 AD) of the famous poet, philosopher and dialectical genius, Sw?mi Ved?nta De?ika. He lived for 101 years. By the age of 20 he became proficient in all branches of spiritual knowledge. He had mastered the Ved?s, ??str?s and ?gam?s and the Divya Prabandhams of the ?zhw?rs. His forte was logic, poetry and philosophy. He wrote extensively in Sanskrit, Tamizh, Pr?krit and Maniprav?la and composed numerous devotional hymns which reflected his poetic genius. He received the honorific titles of ‘Ved?nt?c?ryar” from Lord Ra?gan?th? and “Sarvatantra Swatantrar” from the Divine Mother ?r? Ra?gan?yaki. Sw?mi De?ika was a polyglot and an author of 166 granth?s. Besides strengthening and further propagating the Vi?i?ht?dvaitic philosophy of ?r? R?m?nuja, he established beyond any doubt the doctrine of Prapatti (self surrender) as the guaranteed route to m?k?a (liberation). This book is a translation of 73 verses composed in Sanskrit by Prativ?di Bhaya?karam A??angar?c?ry?r Sw?mi (A??an) who was the disciple of N?yan?r?c?ry?r, son of Sw?mi De?ika. This ode on Sw?mi Ved?nta De?ika contains what needs to been known about Sw?mi De?ika’s greatness, the depth of meaning in his works, the faith in him of his devotees and efforts made by his opponents to demean him which boomeranged and put such people to shame. Some of the great ?c?ry?s who came after Sw?mi De?ika quoted several verses from ‘Saptati Ratnamalika’ in their writings and thus gave it a pride of place among other literary works.

Book Synopsis Singing the Body of God by : Steven Paul Hopkins
Download or read book Singing the Body of God written by Steven Paul Hopkins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-04-18 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length study of the devotional poetry and poetics of the fourteenth-century poet-philosopher Vedantadesika, one of the most outstanding and influential figures in the Hindu tradition of Sri-Vaishnavism (the cult of Lord Vishnu). Despite their intrinsic beauty and theological importance, the poetry and philosophy of Vedantadesika have received very little scholarly attention. But for the millions who belong to the Vaishnava tradition, those poems are not just classical literature; they are committed to memory, recited, sung, and enacted in ritual both in India and throughout the Hindu diaspora. Steven Hopkins here offers a comparative study of the Sanskrit, Prakrit, and Tamil poems composed by Vedantadesika in praise of important Vaishnava shrines and their icons--poems that are considered to be the apogee of South Indian devotional literature.
