<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> </p><br><b>A new selection from the national epic of India</b> <p/> Originally composed in Sanskrit sometime between 400 BC and 400 AD, <i>The Mahabharata</i>-with one hundred thousand stanzas of verse-is one of the longest poems in existence. At the heart of the saga is a conflict between two branches of a royal family whose feud culminates in a titanic eighteen-day battle. Exploring such timeless subjects as <i>dharma</i> (duty), <i>artha</i> (purpose), and <i>kama</i> (pleasure) in a mythic world of warfare, magic, and beauty, this is a magnificent and legendary Hindu text of immense importance to the culture of the Indian subcontinent. <p/>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
