Because of its elegant style, learned allusions, and often striking imagery, the poem has been a favorite among pundits. The well-known epic story of Rama's exploits is presented as a series of political intrigues and battles, and contrasted with lyrical passages of various kinds: on love and war, pride and honor, gods and demons, rites and myths, regions and cities of ancient India. This is the first English translation of the only surviving work by Murári, a brahmin court poet, who lived some time between the eighth and tenth century CE, perhaps in Orissa or in neighboring South India.\u003cbr\u003e Co-published by New York University Press and the JJC Foundation\u003cbr\u003e For more on this title and other titles in the Clay Sanskrit series, please visit http:\/\/www.claysanskritlibrary.org\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Clay Sanskrit","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52569978110232,"sku":"9780814782958","price":20.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/rama-beyond-price-hardback-9780814782958","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
