Utgitt 2018.Del av serien Princeton Library of Asian Translations.
Uttarakanda
The concluding volume of a critical English edition of the monumental Indian epicThe seventh and final book of the monumental Ramaya?a of Valmiki, the Uttaraka??a, brings the epic saga to a close with an account of the dramatic events of King Rama’s millennia-long reign. It opens with a colorful history of the demonic race of the rak?asas and the violent career of Rama’s villainous foe Rava?a, and later recounts Rama’s grateful discharge of his allies in the great war at Lanka as well as his romantic reunion with his wife Sita. But dark clouds gather as Rama makes the agonizing decision to banish his beloved wife, now pregnant. As Rama continues as king, marvelous tales and events unfurl, illustrating the benefits of righteous rule and the perils that await monarchs who fail to address the needs of their subjects. The Uttaraka??a has long served as a point of social and religious controversy largely for its accounts of the banishment of Sita, as well as of Rama’s killing of a low-caste ascetic. This seventh volume in the critical edition and translation of the Valmiki Ramaya?a includes an extensive introduction and describes the complex reception history of the Uttaraka??a, as well as exhaustive notes and a comprehensive bibliography.
