Pradyumna : Lover, Magician, and Scion of the Avatara

This book examines an important figure of Hindu mythology and literature who until now has been almost entirely ignored by scholars of Indian religion: Pradyumna, the son of the Hindu god Krsna. Pradyumna: Lover, Magician and Scion of the Avatara assembles the most important narratives of this character, offering a long-view analysis of his evolving mythology over the period 300-1300 CE.
