Book Description
"The Concept of the Beautiful in Sanskrit Literature" was the subject of Dr. Raghavan's lectures at Madras and Berkeley, California in the sixties. The subject of Indian aesthetics is yet to be built up by research work in Gita, Natya, Silpa and Citra and coordinating it with the useful related material in Alankara Sastra. Dr. Raghavan was a unique scholar equally proficient in all these fields. Hence his research as contained in these lectures is yet original, relevant and useful. 'Unfortunately it could not be published during his lifetime. The Institute is thankful to the family of late Dr. V. Raghavan, especially Mrs. Sarada Raghavan, for making the draft of these lectures available for publication by the Institute.
I cannot adequately thank the seniormost critic-poet and versatile scholar Prot K.R. Srinivasa Iyengar, for his valuable Foreword.
