The Aeneid, the Iliad, the Odyssey, and Macbeth come to mind. *NM* Ghavrel - 02/07/2010 02:29:13 AM 766 Views
I really didn't like Macbeth. Rebekah - 03/07/2010 12:12:15 AM 1384 Views

And you make me want to cover my ears Larry - 05/07/2010 07:57:12 PM 1391 Views
Not sure why you're saying that.. @my - 05/07/2010 08:16:05 PM 1705 Views
I just don't ever want to hear you sing Larry - 05/07/2010 08:36:51 PM 1370 Views

Easy. The Mahabharatha... fionwe1987 - 02/07/2010 11:55:27 PM 1403 Views
Don't tell Roh. Rebekah - 03/07/2010 12:13:57 AM 1362 Views

Ahhh... One of my favorites... fionwe1987 - 09/07/2010 05:24:55 PM 1742 Views
Re: Parva is not a translation of the MB, though, is it. It's a reinterpretation. Which is fine. Danae al'Thor - 09/07/2010 11:01:43 PM 1464 Views
It's spelled "Mahabharata". Tom - 03/07/2010 06:51:09 PM 1363 Views
That's not how it is pronounced though... fionwe1987 - 03/07/2010 08:54:27 PM 1385 Views
Traditional pronunciation vs. modern pronunciation Tom - 03/07/2010 09:47:52 PM 1391 Views
