In Hinduism
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Kohalīya (कोहलीय) refers to one of the works ascribed to Kohala—a celebrated authority of the ancient period along with others such as Bharata, Yāṣṭika, Śārdūla, Kāśyapa etc.—Kohala, though a contemporary of Bharata is believed to be one of the pioneering ācaryas of the deśī tradition. He was not just an Ācārya but was also an accomplished actor himself. [...] Information about works attributed to Kohala is found in lakṣaṇagranthas over a period of time. In addition, there are some works which are still in manuscript form. Thus, the works attributed to Kohala can be divided into two categories. One being works available to us from primary sources (manuscripts) and the other representing works which we come to know from secondary sources [e.g., the Kohalīya] (other works which refer to them).

Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
