General definition (in Hinduism)
The Mālavikāgnimitra portrays the life in the court of a historic prince.
The Drama of Mālavikāgnimitra is a remarkable instance of how much a genuine production of a well-known poet may suffer when left to the mercies of distant posterity. The text was first printed at Bonn in 1840, edited by the late Otto Frederik Tullberg.

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.
