This book presents a new synthesis of philological, anthropological and cognitive-linguistic method and theory in relation to the study of narrative text by focusing on the form and function of the Mahabharata in the context of early South Asia.Arguing that the combination of structural and thematic features that have helped to establish the enduring cultural centrality of religious narrativeRoutledgeCurzon Hindu studies series.Hinduism in literatureSouth AsiaElectronic books.Hinduism in literature.294.5/923046Hegarty James.aut884979FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910461604503321Religion, narrative and public imagination in South Asia1975942UNINA04823nam 2200625 450 991078825790332120170918210039.01-4704-1949-1(CKB)3150000000020207(EBL)3114295(SSID)ssj0001292160(PQKBManifestationID)11742757(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001292160(PQKBWorkID)11267874(PQKB)10439759(MiAaPQ)EBC3114295(RPAM)18043642(PPN)197102689(EXLCZ)99315000000002020720150416h20142014 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrDiscrete geometry and algebraic combinatorics /Alexander Barg, Oleg R.
