First published in 1909, this book presents an English translation of chapters 25-42 of the Bhishma Parva from the epic Sanskrit poem Mahabharata - better known as the Bhagavad-Gita, reckoned as one of the 'Five Jewels' of Devanagari literature. The plot consists of a dialogue between Prince Arjuna and Krishna, the Supreme Deity, in a war-chariot prior to a great battle. The conversation that takes place unfolds a philosophical system which remains the prevailing Brahmanic belief, blending the doctrines of Kapila, Patanjali, and the Vedas. Building on a number of preceding translations, this highly-regarded poetic interpretation provides a major work of literature in an accessible popular form.

  • Los (no) saberes del poema.
    Frank Nagel / Frank Nagel / Javier Gómez-Montero
    La tradición de la modernidad puede considerarse también bajo el signo de la negatividad. Tanto la insistencia en conceptos de privación, diferencia y ausencia que caracterizan ciertos debates filosóficos de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, así como las figuras herméticas privilegiadas desde la lírica del simbolismo y las vanguardias imponen una ruptura de la mirada habitual y ve...
