Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the origins of the epic poem MahÄbhÄrata which is as a collection of religious and socio-political knowledge. The author takes a new approach to the text, arguing that the MahÄbhÄrata was composed with the aim of being both a sacred epic and a didactic work together in a single unified project at the start of its composition, rather than having been developed over time. The book examines the language, religion, socio-political thought, philosophy, and mythology of the MahÄbhÄrata to support this claim, arguing that the integration of sacred epic and didactic work was not accidental, but was essential for the authors of the MahÄbhÄrata and their audiences. This approach to the MahÄbhÄrata opens up new insights into the poem's structure and the ways in which it was composed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
