Authors invented a special language to depict both the apparent and hidden sides of disguised or dual characters, and then used it to narrate India's major epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, simultaneously.Originally produced in Sanskrit, these dual narratives eventually worked their way into regional languages, especially Telugu and Tamil, and other artistic media, such as sculpture. Scholars have long dismissed simultaneous narration as a mere curiosity, if not a sign of cultural decline in medieval India. Yet Yigal Bronner's Extreme Poetry effectively negates this position, proving that, far from being a meaningless pastime, this intricate, "bitextual" technique both transcended and reinvented Sanskrit literary expression.The poems of simultaneous narration teased and estranged existing convention and showcased the interrelations between the tradition's foundational texts. By focusing on these achievements and their reverberations through time, Bronner rewrites the history of Sanskrit literature and its aesthetic goals. He also expands on contemporary theories of intertextuality, which have been largely confined to Western texts and practices. 410 0$aSouth Asia across the disciplines. 606 $aSanskrit poetry$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPuns and punning in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSanskrit poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPuns and punning in literature. 676 $a891/.21009 700 $aBronner$b Yigal$01044459 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457080003321 996 $aExtreme poetry$92470128 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01442nam 2200433Ia 450 001 9910696860903321 005 20080724084409.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002382272 035 $a(OCoLC)235942275 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002382272 100 $a20080724d2006 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aFlooding and streamflow in Utah during water year 2005$b[electronic resource] /$f[by C.D.
