Tales from India325 руб
Full of richness and warmth, these tales of tender love, great heroism, acts of sacrifice, foolishness and friendship come vividly to life. Beautifully told retellings of classic stories from India. This tapestry of stories is as colourful and diverse as India itself. There is an epic battle in which monkeys and bears help rescue the beautiful princess Sita from evil demons and a simple fable about a jackal who tries to become king. Many of these tales were current centuries before the Christian era and were given a sophisticated form by the storytellers of classical times. Sources in selecting the stories have been Sanskrit and Pali, the classical languages of the Brahmans and the Buddhists. Classic retellings have continued to sell for over thirty years. The subject of myths and legends ties in with the National Curriculum. Before his death the author lived in Maidstone in Kent.
