Until I can set up another HTML/PHP server to host my awesome Mahabharata website (with all the cool effects), I thought I'd blog the three info pages that I put together for it. I hate how they're just sitting there. The pages are structured like this: | |
1. Context: Indian Mythology and Chronological & Geographical Context | |
- | this page places the epic in context; background info for those who don't know what the heck I'm talking about |
2. The Epic: Intro, Main Characters, Synopsis, Text and Chapters | |
- | this page is about the epic itself; it provides links towards the end for those looking for the full text or chapter summaries. The synopsis is pretty awesome, I had fun writing it. |
3. Literature: Themes Studied and Excerpts from my Essays | |
- | this is the page for people who already know the basics. I mention two themes that interest me the most, namely, the "mythification" process (involving Krishna) and polyandry & polygamy in the epic (involving Draupadi and Kunti). Then I go on to provide some excepts from my essays. If anyone is crazy enough to want to read an essay in their free time, let me know. :) |
