Know More about the Course
Raghuvamsha by Kavikulaguru Kalidasa is the foremost in the list of the 5 Classical Epic-poems (Pancha Mahakavyas) of Sanskrit. It is one of the first kavyas taught to Sanskrit students in traditional learning. The kavya is as glorious and noble as the heroes portrayed within – Kalidasa’s creativity and beauty of expression are at their heights in Raghuvamsha and the kavya exemplifies the 2-fold derivation of the term Mahakavya as महतां काव्यम् (Poem about Great People) and महत् काव्यम् (A poem which is great in it’s stature). Raghuvamsha describes the glorious feats of the kings of Suryavamsha, starting with Dilipa and proceeding with his son Raghu, Raghu’s son Aja, Aja’s son Dasharatha and Dasharatha’s son Srirama.
