Volume four is an immense cerebral accomplishment on the genious of Abhinavagupta. This special issue of Evam showcases some of the finest scholarship on him carried out over a twenty-year period. This volume contians fresh translations, re-readings and re-assessments of his mammoth contributions to dramaturgy, literary criticism, philosophy and Sanskrit, to name a few, and Abhinavagupts's seminal contributions in shapping them. Some of the essays in this volume are being published for the first time. The broader project of Evam is precisely to engender a wider understanding of Indic traditions and Abhinavagupta perfectly illuminates such a quest.
