The authoritative new translation of the epic Ramayana, as retold
by the sixteenth-century poet Tulsidas and cherished by millions to
this day. The Epic of Ram presents a new translation of the
Ramcaritmanas of Tulsidas (1543-1623). Written in Avadhi, a
literary dialect of classical Hindi, the poem has become the most
beloved retelling of the ancient Ramayana story across northern
India. A devotional work revered and recited by millions of Hindus
today, it is also a magisterial compendium of philosophy and lore,
and a literary masterpiece. In the sixth volume, Ram and his
devoted allies fight the army of Ravan in a climactic battle that
ends with the death of the demon king. Ram reunites with Sita,
and-after her fidelity is confirmed by the burning of an illusory
double-they board a flying palace to return to the city of Ayodhya,
where Bharat has been waiting anxiously as his brother Ram's
fourteen-year exile nears its end. This new translation into free
verse conveys the passion and momentum of the inspired poet and
storyteller. It is accompanied by the most widely accepted edition
of the Avadhi text, presented in the Devanagari script.
