The definitive English translation of the classic Sanskrit epic
poem-now available in a one-volume paperback The Ramayana of
Valmiki, the monumental Sanskrit epic of the life of Rama, ideal
man and incarnation of the great god Visnu, has profoundly affected
the literature, art, religions, and cultures of South and Southeast
Asia from antiquity to the present. Filled with thrilling battles,
flying monkeys, and ten-headed demons, the work, composed almost
3,000 years ago, recounts Prince Rama's exile and his odyssey to
recover his abducted wife, Sita, and establish a utopian kingdom.
Now, the definitive English translation of the critical edition of
this classic is available in a single volume. Based on the
authoritative seven-volume translation edited by Robert Goldman and
Sally Sutherland Goldman, this volume presents the unabridged
translated text in contemporary English, revised and reformatted
into paragraph form. The book includes a new introduction providing
important historical and literary contexts, as well as a glossary,
pronunciation guide, and index. Ideal for students and general
readers, this edition of the Ramayana of Valmiki introduces an
extraordinary work of world literature to a new generation of
readers.
