Le ThÃ(c)âtre Indien

Le Théâtre Indien by Sylvain Lévi offers a comprehensive exploration of Indian dramatic traditions. This two-part study delves into the theoretical underpinnings and historical evolution of Indian theater. The first part introduces the treatises on dramatic art, the poetics of drama, a history of dramatic literature, and the aesthetics of the theater. The second part examines the origins of drama, Greek influences, the practical aspects of theater, and the theater itself. This book provides invaluable insights into the rich and complex world of Indian theatrical arts, making it an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike. Lévi's detailed analysis illuminates the enduring significance of Indian theater in the broader context of world dramatic literature.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
