Description

This edition is based on new manuscripts of this important treatise on classical Sanskrit poetics.

It was composed by the famous eleventh-century King Bhoja of Malwa (West India), a patron of traditional learning. The text has never received a complete critical edition.

It is important not only because of the theoretical treatment of the erotic sentiment (s??gara) in classical Sanskrit texts.

It is also a mine of quotations from extant and also from lost Sanskrit and Prakrit poetical texts.
