The Great Epics of Ancient India is a book written by Romesh Chunder Dutt and published in 1900. It is a collection of two of the most important and influential epic poems in Indian literature: the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. The book provides a comprehensive overview of these two epics, which are considered to be the cornerstone of Hindu mythology and culture. The Ramayana tells the story of Prince Rama, who is exiled from his kingdom and embarks on a journey to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. The Mahabharata is a much larger epic, spanning over 100,000 verses, and tells the story of the Kuru dynasty and the great battle of Kurukshetra between the Pandavas and Kauravas. Dutt's book provides a detailed and engaging retelling of these two epics, and includes helpful notes and explanations to aid readers in understanding the complex mythology and cultural context of the stories. The book also includes illustrations and maps to further enhance the reading experience. Overall, The Great Epics of Ancient India is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Indian mythology, literature, or culture, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich and complex world of ancient India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
