Kalidasa Books, Kalidasa poetry book Ritusamharam Authors: Kalidasa
Publisher: Penguin Random House India Private Limited
Published Date: 2018-04-12
Categories: Poetry
Perhaps the most lively and exuberant of Kalidasa's extant works, Ritusamharam is a glorious ode to nature's bounty and the enduring emotional response it evokes in mankind as a whole. Recounted as a celebration of the passing seasons, it is a feast for the senses, capturing the myriad facets of love and longing in a kaleidoscope of sumptuous imagery: the mischievous moonlight that, like a pining lover, steals glances at sleeping maidens; the monsoon-bloated rivers that rush to the sea with a lustful urgency; the flame of lovemaking that is kindled anew at the onset of winter; the heady scent of mango blossoms that makes even the most unyielding of hearts quiver. Even animals, big and small, are swept into the playful pattern of the great poet's lyrical homage. A.N.D. Haksar's supple and spirited translation is accompanied by an absorbing introduction and notes that shed further light on this extraordinary work.

Published Date: 2004-08
Categories: Sanskrit drama
Malavikagnimitram Is The First Play Of Kalidasa Composed In Five Acts. It Is The Story Of King Agnimitra S Love For Malavika, An Unknown Beautiful Girl Living In The Royal Harem. She Was Proficient In Music And Dance. This Play Is A Court Comedy Of Royal Love, In Which Harem Jealousies And Court Intrigues Mingle To Raise Romantic Situations Of Love, Amusing Scenes Of Confrontation And A Merry, Light-Hearted Air Which Are Thoroughly Enjoyable. It Is Truly The Author S Ingenuity, Skill And Ability For Scheming That Enable Agnimitra To Meet Malavika And Finally Win Her As His Wife And Queen. In Spite Of His Political Direction In Matters Of State, Agnimitra Appears As A Passive Hero, Thoroughly Dependent Of Vidushaka His Minister For The Success Of His Love Affair. Kalidasa S Skill In Creating Dramatic Situations Is Beyond Doubt. Despite Several Defects, The Play Bears The Unmistakable Stamp Of Kalidasa S Workmanship.

Regarded as the most important figure in the Classical Sanskrit literary canon, Kalidasa was a poet and playwright who likely lived in the fifth century AD. This collection brings together some of Kalidasa's most well-regarded dramatic works, including the timeless story of Shakuntala, a beautiful maiden who was abandoned at birth and raised in a remote hermitage. Though she later enchants a powerful king who desires to take the young woman as his bride, Shakuntala must overcome a series of obstacles before she can reign as queen.

Believed to be Kalidasa's first work, Malavikagnimitram is the love story of King Agnimitra and the court dancer Malavika. The tale unfolds through humorous palace interludes, vivid descriptions of fine arts and the cunning machinations of court players. Even in this early work, Kalidasa's characteristic penchant for romance, art and natural beauty is evident at every delightful turn of the plot. He transforms a simple tale of forbidden love into an engrossing courtly drama filled with beauty, humour and wit. // Srinivas Reddy's engaging translation captures to perfection the joyous vigour of the young dramatist's voice.

Categories: Poetry
Kalidasa is the major poet and dramatist of classical Sanskrit literature - a many-sided talent of extraordinary scope and exquisite language. His great poem, Meghadutam (The Cloud Messenger), tells of a divine being, punished for failing in his sacred duties with a years' separation from his beloved. A work of subtle emotional nuances, it is a haunting depiction of longing and separation. The play Sakuntala describes the troubled love between a Lady of Nature and King Duhsanta. This beautiful blend of romance and comedy, transports its audience into an enchanted world in which mortals mingle with gods. And Kalidasa's poem Rtusamharam (The Gathering of the Seasons) is an exuberant observation of the sheer variety of the natural world, as it teems with the energies of the great god Siva.

Edgar Albert Guest Poem
The Killing Place
 by Edgar Albert Guest

We're hiking along at a two-forty pace
We 're making life seem like a man-killing race,
With our nerves all on edge and our jaws firmly set
We go rushing along; with our brows lined with sweat
And our cheeks pale and drawn every minute we dash,
And the goal that we 're after is merely more cash.

We 're out for the money, the greenbacks and gold,
