Sibendra Nath GuOSAL: Women in separation (Prosita Bhartrika) In the Appabhramia strophes of Hemachandra. (Jain Ant. Vol. XI; No. I; Arrah; 1945; Pp. 20-26).
Hemachandra presents a rich store of love lyrics. In it we find not only a pen-picture of the different types of women, but also a vivid delineation of the most subtle phases of their love with its countless tangles of complexities. The object of the present article is to describe only the women in separation (proșitabhartyka) and study the workings of their hearts, undergoing changes under the sway of the most fervent passion of love. Some verses quoted.
