Chapter: 11. Literary Heritage Of India

⁠

Question 1

This image represents the epic Mahabharata, and the two main figures shown are Lord Krishna and Arjuna.

A significant conversation about duty, righteousness, and the path to peace is happening between them, which forms the Bhagavad Gita.

The war depicted in the background took place at Kurukshetra.

Question 2

This image visually represents the broad concept of India’s literary heritage, encompassing its rich history of knowledge and storytelling.

Two types of literary works that contribute to this heritage are the ancient epics like the Ramayana and Mahabharata, and collections of moral stories such as the Panchatantra and Jataka Tales.

It is important for a culture to preserve its literary heritage because these works contain stories, songs, and poems passed down by ancestors, which convey moral values, teachings, wisdom, and a sense of identity and history to future generations.

Question 3

A story based on this image might originate from Indian literary collections like the Panchatantra or the Jataka Tales.

A common characteristic of characters in stories from these collections is that they are often presented in both human and animal forms.

Such stories generally serve the purpose of teaching moral values and valuable life lessons, often through engaging narratives that entertain while educating.

Question 4

This scene is most likely from the ancient Indian epic, the Ramayana.

The main characters depicted in this conflict are Prince Rama, the heroic figure, and Ravana, the multi-headed demon king.

The heroic figure, Prince Rama, is often portrayed as an embodiment of righteousness, duty (dharma), and sacrifice.
