Produktinformationen zu „A Vaisnava Poet in Early Modern Bengal / Oxford Theology and Religion Monographs (PDF)“
This book examines the practice of poetry in the devotional Vai¿¿ava tradition inspired by Sri K¿¿¿a Caitanya (1486-1533), through a detailed study of the Sanskrit poetic works of Kavikar¿apura, one of the most significant sixteenth-century Caitanya Vai¿¿ava poets and theologians. It places his ideas in the context both of Sanskrit literary theory (by exploring his use of earlier works of
Sanskrit criticism) and of Vai¿¿ava theology (by tracing the origins of his theological ideas to earlier Vai¿¿ava teachers, especially his guru Srinatha). Both Kavikar¿apura's poetics as well as the style of his poetry is in many ways at
odds with those of his time, particularly with respect to the place of phonetic ornamentation and rasa. Like later early modern theorists, Kavikar¿apura reaches back to the earliest Sanskrit poeticians whom he attempts to harmonise with the theories current in his time, to develop a new poetics that values both literary ornamentation and the suggestion of emotion through rasa. This book argues that the reasons of and purposes for Kavikar¿apura's literary innovations
are firmly rooted in his unique Vai¿¿ava theology, and exemplifies this through a careful reading of select passages from the Ananda-v¿ndavana, his poetic retelling of K¿¿¿a's play in V¿ndavana.
