The Drama of Lord Jagannatha

Description

The Drama of Lord Jagannātha retells the Purāṇic story of founding the sacred image of Jagannātha and the great Jagannātha Temple at Purī, India.

Composed in English in the rich tradition of classical Sanskrit dramaturgy, this rare poetic work comes in two parts: the first part is the drama itself, and the second part introduces the reader to the craft of Sanskrit drama and analyzes the construction and form of the present work itself.
