Publisher's Synopsis
This volume presents two seminal works of Sanskrit poetics: Rudrata's "Ãrngâratilaka" and Ruyyaka's "SahrdayalÃ(R)lâ". These texts offer profound insights into the ancient Indian understanding of literary art, exploring the intricacies of poetic expression and the aesthetic experience. "Ãrngâratilaka" focuses on the elements of erotic sentiment in poetry, while "SahrdayalÃ(R)lâ" delves into the nature of poetic suggestion and interpretation. Students and scholars of Sanskrit literature, comparative literature, and Indian aesthetics will find this a valuable resource for understanding the rich intellectual heritage of ancient India.
