This volume examines The Ramayäa traditions of South India and Southeast Asia. Bringing together 19 well-known scholars in Ramayäa studies from Cambodia, Canada, France, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, UK, and USA, this thought-provoking and elegantly illustrated volume engages with the inherent plurality, diversity, and adaptability of the Ramayäa in changing socio-political, religious, and cultural contexts.
The journey and localization of the Ramayäa is explored in its manifold expressions - from classical to folk, from temples and palaces to theatres and by-lanes in cities and villages, and from ancient to modern times. Regional Ramayäas from different parts of South India and Southeast Asia are placed in deliberate juxtaposition to enable a historically informed discussion of their connected pasts across land and seas. The three parts of this volume, organized as visual, literary, and performance cultures, discuss the sculpted, painted, inscribed, written, recited, and performed Ramayäas. A related emphasis is on the way boundaries of medium and genre have been crossed in the visual, literary, and performed representations of the Ramayäa.
