This is a remarkable collection of fourteen essays about the unique
nature of Indian art and culture. Written in the early twentieth
century, The Dance of Shiva was a remarkable book for its time. It
discussed in depth the unique nature of the Indian ethos,
understood by so few in the Western world and misinterpreted by so
many. A collection of fourteen lectures, these essays on Indian art
and culture offer a lucid representation of the opinions and
attitudes held by Indian intellectuals during the British Raj.
Ranging from topics such as music during Vedic times, Indian
attitudes towards family, women and love, analyses of the symbolism
of Nataraja and the many-armed gods of India, to the Indian concept
of beauty, The Dance of Shiva is an effervescent account of the
Indian experience through the ages.
