The book examines in detail the different mnemonic forms engaged by this verbal activity focusing primarily on the distinction between what is seen and what is heard, as the poets stage and dramatize the four dimensions of their heroic song within one timely occasion. The subtle poetics of preliteracy and literacy which are compounded in one performance are demonstrated and made distinct in both a literary and a conceptual light. Jaya will be of interest to those who work in Sanskrit and Indian Studies, the Classics, Oral Traditions, Comparative Literature, and the traditions of archaic poetry.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmAuthor: Kevin McGrathGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Ilex SeriesType: GenresItem Width: 6mmItem Weight: 181gRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
