The Mahabharata, an ancient and vast Sanskrit poem, is a remarkable
collection of epics, legends, romances, theology, and ethical and
metaphysical doctrine. The core of this great work is the epic
struggle between five heroic brothers, the Pandavas, and their one
hundred contentious cousins for rule of the land. This is the
second volume of van Buitenen's acclaimed translation of the
definitive Poona edition of the text. Book two, The Book of the
Assembly Hall, is an epic dramatization of the Vedic ritual of
consecration that is central to the book. Book three, The Book of
the Forest, traces the further episodes of the heroes during their
years in exile. Also included are the famous story of Nala, dealing
with the theme of love in separation, and the story of Rama, the
subject of the other great Sanskrit epic, the Ramayana, as well as
other colorful tales.
