It is for the first time that a complete critical edition of the Satapatha Brahmana of the Kanva school of the Sukla Yajurveda alongwith its English translation is published. This edition has taken into account the readings available in a few more manuscripts besides those in the published edition in Telugu script which were not available to Prof. Caland who brought out a critical edition of its first seven Kandas. It is also the first attempt at providing a complete English translation. No doubt the texts of the Satapatha of the Madhyandina and Kanva school do not differ much from Kandas VIII to XVI and Prof. Eggeling's translation of the former is available. Still a fresh attempt at translating the latter portion was felt necessary as a result of detailed discussions with traditional scholars who are actively engaged in Srauta sacrificial performances. Textual notes to substantiate the choice of particular readings a section under the heading Vimarsa discussing certain selected topics arising out of a study of the text an exhaustive list of contents Brahmana wise and glossary of technical terms are some of the additional features of this attempt. The suggestions and guidance of traditional scholars who are experts in Srautayagas are the most important advantages of this edition. 168 pp.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Contents Foreword. Introduction. 1. Incarnation (Avataram). 2. Suppression of Kaliya (Kaliyamardanam). 3. The divine dance of Rasa (Rasakrida). 4. The slaying of Kamsa (Kamsavadham). 5. Marriage (Svayamvaram). 6. Battle with Bana (Banayuddham). 7. The slaying of Vivida (Vividavadham). 8. Ascent to heaven (Svargarohanam). The Krsnagiti is a lyrical and devotional poem composed by Manaveda Zamorin of Kozhikode (17 cent. A.D.). The poem composed in Sanskrit celebrates the life of Krsna from his incarnation (avatara) to his ascent to Heaven (svargarohana). Composed in eight parts and perhaps modelled on Jayadeva's Gitagovinda and written in the form of a monologue addressed to Krsna the poem is suffused with the sentiment of spiritual devotion (bhakti). It enumerates the story of the Lord and eulogises His lilas on the earth. Moreover it is the source text for Krishnattam the votive dance drama affiliated to the Guruvayur Temple in Central Kerala. The Krsnagiti makes a significant contribution of Kerala to the corpus of Sanskrit devotional literature in India. The sentiment of bhakti which pervades the entire poem assumes unique lyrical and dramatic power and invests Krishnattam with immense histrionic possibilities. The dual experience of the poem as literary work and as a source text for a live performance tradition makes it interesting for the reader and the spectator alike. The edition published here presents the text of the Krsnagiti in Devanagari for the first time with a lucid English translation. 350 pp.…
