A modern introduction to Indian aesthetic theory : the development from Bharata to Jagannātha - 2nd - New Delhi D. K. Pritnworld (P) Ltd. 2016 - xxvi,374 Pp

All arts in India owe their roots to the theoretical structure developed by Bharatamuni in his celebrated work, Natyasastra. His theory of beauty is known as the theory of rasa. The present volume has shown how the insight of Bharata was developed by the classical scholars from Abhinavagupta to Jagannatha, who propounded the theories with names like rasa, alamkara, riti, vakrokti, dhvani etc. to employ the theory of beauty from natya (drama) to kavya (poetry).
