Dramas

Description

Dramas This little treatise is a reprint of the learned introduction of Professor H. H. Wilson’s celebrated work Hindu Theatre. The dramatic literature of Hindus has already attracted the attention of the English-reading public all over the world. There is hardly any scholar who does not know the name of Kalidasa’s Sakuntala. In this little book the readers will find a complete account of the dramatic system of the Hindus and of the various books written on the subject. Introductory primers, like these, are likely to prove very useful to the general readers who have not the leisure to go through the voluminous literature but have a desire to have a rough idea of the subject.
