In the following centuries new versions were created alongside the old ones, and these opened up interesting new directions. They questioned the views of previous versions and laid different accents, in a continuous process of modernization and adaptation, successfully satisfying the curiosity of their audiences for more than a thousand years. Much of this history is still unclear. For a long time, scholarly research made little progress, due to its preoccupation with problems of origin. The present volume, going beyond identifying sources, analyses the socio-literary contexts and ideological foundations of seemingly similar contents and concepts in different periods; it examines the literary functions of borrowing and intertextual referencing, and calls upon the visual arts to illustrate the independent character of the epic tradition in Southeast Asia.Nalanda-Sriwijaya series ;34.Malay literatureHistory and criticismElectronic books.Malay literatureHistory and criticism.899.2809Ming Ding Choovan der Molen WillemISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910466875303321Traces of the Ramayana and Mahabharata in Javanese and Malay Literature2441320UNINA
