The widely acclaimed lyrical composition of Gita Govinda of Sri Jayadev, the 12 century A.D. saint poet, has been a powerful influence on several genres of creative and performing arts in various parts of India. It is perhaps the most lyrical Sanskrit composition of the medieval era. This book is authored by two know researchers of Orissa Shri A.K. Tripathy and Shri P.C. Tripathy. Shri A.K. Tripathy is a senior bureaucrat, columnist and author of several books in Oriya. The book highlights the living traditions of Gita Govinda in present day Orissa, besides giving a host of historical and cultural references on the life and times of the saint poet in and around the temple city of Puri and his claimed native palace nearby.
