Seller's Description:
Fine in very good dust jacket. Text in English, Sanskrit. Red cloth over boards. 8vo (5.75 x 8.75 inches). 550 p. In Abhinavagupta's encyclopaedic work, the Tantraloka (Light on the Tantras), he describes the various tantras of his day and places at their apex the most extreme of them, the Kula ritual, which proposes the use of wine and meat and intercourse with women of the low castes. This book is a translation-the first into English of any chapter of the Tantraloka of Abhinavagupta's version of the Kula ritual. It also provides a translation-the first into any language-of Jayaratha's indispensable commentary. It shows the structure of the text, which is not a confused mass of codes and activities but is articulated as finely as an Indian temple. The translation is accompanied by a commentary, the appendices, including a glossary and index of words.
