Description

The book represents the first attempt of its kind to present a detailed, systematic analysis of the Upamana dharmas (Tertia Comparationis) of the various objects of comparison found in the Mahabharata. It also critically examines the position of the Great Epic as a fascinating specimen of Oral poetic composition abounding. A study of some of the major figures of speech also provides an authoritative material useful for further research of the evolution of Tertia comparationis.
