Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:-The author reveals that he has taken the liberty of giving to the following little work the sanction of your Lordship's name, not with the idea, that so humble a tribute can add anything to its lustre; but with the hope, that it may reflect some credit upon the pages to which it is prefixed. Meghad?ta is a lyric poem written by K?lid?sa (c. 4thÐ5th century CE), considered to be one of the greatest Sanskrit poets. It describes how a yak?a (or nature spirit), who had been banished by his master to a remote region for a year, asked a cloud to take a message of love to his wife. The poem become well-known in Sanskrit literature and inspired other poets to write similar poems (known as "messenger-poems", or Sandesha Kavya) on similar themes. The antiquity and excellence of the sacred language of the Hindus, have naturally attracted attention, and excited curiosity: possessing considerable claims to be regarded as the most ancient form of speech with which mankind is acquainted, it appeals strongly to the interest that invests the early ages of the world; and constructed upon perhaps the most perfect plan, which human ingenuity has devised, it tempts them to an enquiry whether its perfection be limited by its structure, or whether the merits of Hindu compositions partake, or not, of the beauty of the language, in which they are composed. About the Author:-Horace Hayman Wilson (1786 Ð 1860) was an English orientalist. He became deeply interested in the ancient language and literature of India, and was the first person to translate the Rigveda into English. In 1813 he published the Sanskrit text with a free translation in English rhymed verse of Kalidasa's lyrical poem, the Meghaduta, or Cloud-Messenger. He prepared the first Sanskrit-English Dictionary (1819) from materials compiled by native scholars, supplemented by his own researches. This work was only superseded by the Sanskritwrterbuch (1853Ð1876) of Rudolf Roth and Otto von Bhtlingk, who expressed their obligations to Wilson in the preface to their great work. He was interested in Ayurveda and traditional Indian medical and surgical practices. He compiled the local practices observed for cholera and leprosy in his publications in the Medical and Physical Society of Calcutta.
