500 _aComparative poetics opens up exciting avenues in our perceptions as we see the same basic issues addressed to from different angles by thinkers separated by time and space, but often speaking in the same language. Here divergence of views is as important convergence since both help us to understand given cultures better. The present work, with its comprehensiveness and openness of approach retrieves much of the valuable insights of Indian tradition by putting it in proper perspective. The author spans a vast area of knowledge from the time of Bharata and Aristotle stretching to modern developments in literary theory.
