One of the three surviving plays of the Sanskrit dramatist Bhavabhuti (8th c. A.D.), the Malatimadhava tells the enchanting story of the love affair between the Indian hero Madhava, and his heroine, Malati. Here revised from Coulson's original manuscript, this optimistic, often cheerful ten-act play gives original insight into the broad range of basic human emotions.
