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�.
General definition (in Hinduism)
: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and Subjects厂奴苍耻 (啶膏啶ㄠ) is a common word for 鈥榮on鈥� from the Rigveda onwards. The etymological sense seems to be he who is borne,鈥� and then 鈥榯he begotten鈥�. But the use of 厂奴苍耻 in the Rigveda is predominantly in relation to the father, and only rarely in its connexion with words for mother. Thus a father is 鈥榚asy of access鈥� (蝉奴辫腻测补苍补) to his son (蝉奴苍耻); but in another passage, where the same term is applied to earth as a mother, the word used for son is Putra. No conclusion as to matriarchy can of course be drawn from the etymology. On the relation of son and father, see 笔颈迟峁�.
