This volume provides opportunities to explore such questions by bringing together a whole set of new translations by David Shulman, noted scholar of South Asia. The translated selections come from a variety of Indian languages, genres, and periods, from the classical to the contemporary. The translations are accompanied by short essays written to help readers engage and enjoy them. Some of these essays provide background to enhance reading of the translation, whereas others model how to expand appreciation in comparative and broader ways. Together, the translations and the accompanying essays form an essential guide for people interested in literature and art from South Asia. 606 $aLiterary Collections / Asian / Indic$2bisacsh 606 $aLiterary Criticism / Asian / Indic$2bisacsh 606 $aHistory / Asia / India & South Asia$2bisacsh 606 $aHistory 615 7$aLiterary Collections / Asian / Indic 615 7$aLiterary Criticism / Asian / Indic 615 7$aHistory / Asia / India & South Asia 615 0$aHistory. 676 $a891/.1 702 $aBronner$b Yigal$cProf. 702 $aHallisey$b Charles 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910598015303321 996 $aSensitive Reading$92843157 997 $aUNINA
