H. Wilson described it ) “Little Clay Cart” to a dramatization of and amendment to the “Ramáyana” in “Rama’s Last Act.” In addition to its scope of genre, the set covers a large period of time (the “Three Satires” by Bhállata, Ksheméndra, and Nila·kan alone were written over a period of nearly a thousand years) and also includes several works traditionally given less modern attention, such as “Málavika and Agni·mitra” by Kali·dasa, in order to provide a multifaceted view of Sankskrit theater. \u003cbr\u003eIncluded in this set:\u003cbr\u003e“The Lady of the Jewel Necklace” \u0026amp; “The Lady who Shows her Love”\u003cbr\u003e  By Harsha.
