Ananda Vardhanan and C.V. Vasudeva Bhattathiri write in Malayalam on the classical Sanskrit text ധ്വന്യാലോകം (Dhwanyalokam), the celebrated treatise by the ninth-century Kashmiri critic Ānandavardhana that established the dhvani — or aesthetic suggestion — theory of Sanskrit poetics. Their work brings this foundational text of Indian literary criticism to Malayalam readers.
