Summary
Composed in the oral tradition in about the fifth century BC, this story, about the warrior-prince Rama, has been retold over the generations ever since. With its fantastical characters ranging from monsters to apes, a very human hero and its profound moral purpose, it is one of the greatest of all Indian tales.
