Soft cover. Condition: As New. Contents Foreword. 1. What has India contributed to human welfare. 2. Hindu view of art historical. 3. Hindu view of art theory of beauty. 4. That beauty is a state. 5. Buddhist primitives. 6. The dance of Shiva. 7. Indian images with many arms. 8. Indian music. 9. Status of Indian women. 10. Sahaja. 11. Intellectual fraternity. 12. Cosmopolitan view of Nietzsche. 13. Young India. 14. Individuality autonomy and function. The collection of essays by Ananda K. Coomaraswamy on Indian art and culture and other themes published under the title The Dance of Shiva reflect the many sided genius of this great savant. The fourteen essays in this collection critically deal with aspects of Indian ethos art and aesthetics philosophy music and Indian women besides essays on Indian and western and ancient and contemporary themes. Coomaraswamy's discussion on these wide ranging themes with his mastery of the original source material bear the stamp of his understanding and thorough analysis. In the essay What has India contributed Coomaraswamy has discussed the application of Brahmanical religious philosophy to the problems of sociology. In his words The essential contribution of India is her Indianness. He aptly sums up the fundamental quality of Indian music when he says that Indian music is essentially impersonal and a purely melodic art with elaborate grace. His essays Indian images with many arms is an answer to the critics of Indian art wherein he has tried to show that what appears bizarre to an occidental mind is because of lack of familiarity with Indian art traditions and not a sincere attempt to evaluate the works of art on own merits. His thoughts on diverse theme like Intellectual Fraternity Cosmopolitan view of Nietzsche Young India and Individuality autonomy and function show his awareness to contemporary situation and ideas. The present collection of essays epitomizes Coomaraswamy's greatness and should prove to be of sustained interest and permanent value to all interested in understanding of Indian art and ethos. 196 pp.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: New. The Dance of Shiva by Coomaraswamy explores the metaphysical part of India. It explains India's contribution to the entire humanity. This book addresses the Indian ethos in a more detailed manner since Indian philosophy is often misinterpreted by the Westerners. Topics associated with fine arts, philosophy, and music are covered in this book; these include the Hindu and Buddhist perception of art from the aesthetical and historical points of view. Popular sculptures such as Nataraja, another incarnation of Shiva, represented as the God of dance, and multiple-armed images in Indian art are studied extensively. There is also a section on Indian music, which is also studied in great detail. Besides, this volume also covers the issue of the status of Indian women, Sahaja philosophy, the intellectual community, Indian youth, and individualism.

While in India, he was part of the literary circle around Rabindranath Tagore, and he contributed to the "Swadeshi" movement, an early phase of the struggle for Indian independence.
