Synopsis The krsna Legend, A New Perspective, a Magnum-opus, examining Krsna Legend in its varied perspectives, has come up with thoughtprovoking interpretations of hitherto untrodden various concepts and facts relating to Krsna Legend. The author has delved deeply into Indian generes in religion, history and theology and analysed with rare insights as to how the arche-types of Krsna Legends can be traced back in other traditions, and how the mythological assimilation of krsna Legend has led to its various dimensions. A methodical attempt has been made to collate and present information of Sri Krsna’s influence on art, culture and literature not only in India, but also in other parts of the world. The Folklore method of study employed in this work, ushers a new phase in the study of Krsna Legend.
