MTV's touching tales in translation
Saturday, 17.04.2010, 10:23am
Virginia Woolf and Henry
James transformed the art of fiction. From being the telling of a story
with incidents described in a linear manner in the ‘accursed' omniscient
third person, it grew into a form of narration — often termed
‘modernist fiction' — which riveted the attention of the reader.

Doctrine of Vallabhacharya
Wednesday, 14.04.2010, 09:41am
This book, in six
chapters, discusses Vallabhacharya's doctrine of Bhakti Vedanta. The
introductory chapter gives the quintessence of the major systems of
philosophy — Advaita, Visishtadvaita, Dvaita and so on — and also
mentions the tenets of the Hamsa sect of Vishnavism (of Nimbarka).
While clearly bringing out how and where the Advaita differs from
Buddhism, the author dispels the misconception underlying the
description of Sankara as a “Pracchanna Bauddha.” His analysis,
supported by ‘Sruti' and cogent arguments, should help in getting a
clear and proper understanding of these schools of philosophy, with all
their nuances.
