Paperback. Condición: New. Language: English. About the Book:-The Sanskrit text of the Buddha- Karita was published in the 'Anecdota Oxoniensia,' and the following English translation is now included in the series of 'sacred Books of the East.' It is an early Sanskrit poem written in India on the legendary history of Buddha and therefore contains much that is of interest for the history of Buddhism beside its special importance as illustrating the early history of classical Sanskrit literature. It is ascribed to Asvaghosha; and although there were several writers who bore that name it seems most probable that our author was the contemporary and spiritual adviser of Kanishka in the first century of our era. About the Author:-A?vagho?a was a Sarv?stiv?da or Mahasanghika Buddhist philosopher, dramatist, poet and orator from India. He was born in Saketa in northern India which is also known as Ayodhya. He is believed to have been the first Sanskrit dramatist, and is considered the greatest Indian poet prior to K?lid?sa. It seems probable that he was the contemporary and spiritual adviser of Kanishka in the first century of our era. He was the most famous in a group of Buddhist court writers, whose epics rivalled the contemporary Ramayana. Whereas much of Buddhist literature prior to the time of A?vagho?a had been composed in P?li and Prakrit, A?vagho?a wrote in Classical Sanskrit.
