Contributions to The History of The Hindu Drama

The articles presented in this abrochure, as will be evident to readers, seek among other things to deal with some important problems without a proper study of which no very satisfactory history of ancient Indian drama can be written. There are other problems too, which need such attention, and I hope to take them up in near future. In the meantime I may place these before the readers who are interested in the origin, development and diffusion of the ancient Indian drama over various countries of Asia. All these articles except the fourth and the last ones were issued before in an edition of one hundred copies and may be said to have been well-received. This is the reason for bringing out a revised and enlarged second edition of the same. As these articles were written in different times with a view to publication in different journals there are in them some repetition. For obvious reasons these have been allowed to stand. I may hope that readers. will look indulgently at this.
