This book explores the use of digital humanities (DH) to understand, interpret, and annotate the poetics of Indian literary and cultural texts, which circulate in digital forms \u2014 in manuscripts \u2014 and as oral or musical performance. Drawing on the linguistic, cultural, historical, social, and geographic diversity of Indian texts and contexts, it foregrounds the use of digital technologies \u2014 including minimal computing, novel digital humanities research and teaching methodologies, critical archive generation and maintenance \u2014 for explicating poetics of Indian literatures and generating scholarly digital resources which will facilitate comparative readings.
