: OpenEdition books: 痴颈惫颈诲丑补迟墨谤迟丑补办补濒辫补岣� (K膩vya)岣宱尘产补 (啶∴啶啶�) in Sanskrit refers to a low caste musician, as is mentioned in the 痴颈惫颈诲丑补迟墨谤迟丑补办补濒辫补 by Jinaprabhas奴ri (13th century A.D.): an ancient text devoted to various Jaina holy places (迟墨谤迟丑补蝉).鈥擭ote: A 岣峯尘产补 is a low caste musician (Monier Williams and B枚htlingk sv). The word is well preserved in modern languages: CDIAL 5570 Gy. Eur. rom 鈥渕an鈥�, No. 岣峯尘产 鈥渂arber鈥�, Kho. 岣峯尘 鈥渕usician鈥�, S. 岣嵟玬耻 鈥渃aste of traveling musicians鈥�, etc. In Hindi (cf. Sharma 1987 sv), 岣峯尘 means 鈥渁 caste of untouchables, who most often work in cemeteries鈥�. Cf. k.38, n.34.
Kavya (啶曕ぞ啶掂啶�, kavya) refers to Sanskrit poetry, a popular ancient Indian tradition of literature. There have been many Sanskrit poets over the ages, hailing from ancient India and beyond. This topic includes mahakavya, or 鈥榚pic poetry鈥� and natya, or 鈥榙ramatic poetry鈥�.
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
: OAPEN: Abhinavagupta on Dance and Dramatic Acting岣宱尘产补 (啶∴啶啶�) refers to a particular community of 鈥渟ingers鈥� possibly associated with the 岣宱尘产颈办腻 genre of performance in ancient Indian art of dance and theater.鈥擵. Raghavan (1978) highlights the popular character and origin of the genre called 岣宱尘产颈办腻. He derives this idea from the description, in Kalha峁嘺鈥檚 R膩jatara峁単in墨, of a musical and dance performance by an ensemble composed of a 岣峯尘产补 singer (岣峯尘产补g膩yana) and his two daughters, also 岣峯尘产补 singers (岣峯尘产补g膩yik膩), collectively referred to as a 岣峯尘产补 ensemble (岣峯尘产补ma峁囜笉ala). Raghavan further mentions the existence of a peripatetic community of performers in South India called 岣峯尘产补s, whose performances, the 岣峯尘产补nk奴峁弓膩dis, featured acrobatic numbers, drumming and rope-dancing (Raghavan 1993: 190鈥�191).
搁腻箩补迟补谤补峁単颈峁嚹� 5.354鈥�380 recounts the visit of a troupe of 岣峯尘产补s to the court of Kashmir in the tenth century, and how the ruling king Cakravarman, flattered and seduced by the singing and dancing of the two daughters of Ra峁単a, the 岣峯尘产补 singer, introduced them into his court. Blinded by passion, Cakravarman let the 岣峯尘产补s take control over the affairs of his kingdom, while he fell into misery and was eventually murdered. Such commonalities led Raghavan and Warder to consider the 岣宱尘产颈办腻 described by Abhinavagupta on a par with the performance by the 岣峯尘产补ma峁囜笉ala described in the R膩jatara峁単in墨.
Natyashastra (啶ㄠぞ啶熰啶ざ啶距じ啷嵿い啷嵿ぐ, 苍腻峁瓂补艣腻蝉迟谤补) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya鈥攖heatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
