Interrelations of Indian Literature and Arts - Lidia Sudyka

The multifarious relations between the sound and the word were a subject of concern for Indian authors starting from the Vedic period. It was the Samaveda and its creators that noticed the emotional value of the sound and the impact of euphonic combinations on the audience. The interactions of music and text are clearly visible in theatrical traditions although there are also some other meeting points of literature and Indian arts.
