The Iliad of the East is a book that presents a selection of legends from the ancient Sanskrit poem The Ramayana, written by the Indian poet Valmiki. The book is authored by Frederika Richardson and serves as an introduction to the epic poem for English-speaking readers. The Ramayana is one of the two great epic poems of India and tells the story of Prince Rama's quest to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. The Iliad of the East includes stories of love, war, sacrifice, and heroism, all set against a backdrop of ancient Indian culture and mythology. The book provides readers with a glimpse into the rich literary and cultural heritage of India, as well as an understanding of the universal themes that underlie the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
