N1  - Indian classical dance is considered a 'high art'. In ancient India, it was even venerated as a 'sacred' act. In this book, the author examines the vast Sanskritic textual corpus on dance in an attempt not only to reconstruct India's two-millenia long dance tradition, but also to dispel historical and aesthetic misconceptions about it
