Samenvatting
Dhvanyaloka
is a foundational text on Sanskrit poetics by the 9th-century critic Anandavardhana that introduces the theory of dhvani, or "aesthetic suggestion". The work argues that the soul of poetry is the suggested, implied meaning, which is distinct from the literal meaning of words and arises from the resonant emotional atmosphere (rasa) of the work. Dhvanyaloka, and the commentary Locana by Abhinavagupta, are central to understanding Indian literary theory and the concept of suggested meaning in poetry
