Pradyumna: Lover, Magician, and Scion of the Avatara
Austin, Christopher R. (Associate Professor, Associate Professor, Dalhousie University)
This book examines an important figure of Hindu mythology and literature who until now has been almost entirely ignored by scholars of Indian religion: Pradyumna, the son of the Hindu god Krsna. Pradyumna: Lover, Magician and Scion of the Avatara assembles the most important narratives of this character, offering a long-view analysis of his evolving mythology over the period 300-1300 CE.
