Sexual Life in Ancient India: A Study in the Comparative History of Indian Culture v1.c3.1

- **Language:** English

### [v1.c3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.meyer-1915.v1.c3.1)

IN the preface to the German edition of this book, Professor Meyer tells us that it is an attempt to give a true and vivid account of the life of woman in ancient India, based upon the immense masses of material imbedded in the two great Epics, the \*Mahābhārata\* and the \*Rāmāyaṇa\*. His method has been to make liberal use of the very words of the Epics.
