Summary/Abstract |
Kathakali's origin and development owe gratitude to the royal family of Travancore. The Raja of Kottarakkara (17th century) is the earliest exponent of this art. It draws much from Bharata's Natya Sastra and has contributed a memorable, superb art of dancing and acting in the Natya literature of India.

Summary/Abstract |
The Natyasastra purports to be a treatise on Hindu dramaturgy and histrionics, whose authorship is ascribed to Bharata-Muni, who is universally acknowledged to be legendary.
The Natyasastra is acknowledged to be the first Sanskrit work on dramaturgy. The treatise says that Bharata was the one who popularized the Natyaveda, created by Brahma, on the earth. He is also said to have collected all the material of earlier acharyas (ancient teachers) like Tumburu, Narada and Nandi and gave the Nayashastra a complete coherence by making additions, alterations and adaptations according to the requirements of time and space. It is clear from the text that later it was the sons and the followers of Bharata who transmitted the art of the theater to the world. Abhinava Gupta uses the name ̧Adi-Bharata for Bharata as the sons and the followers of Bharata were called Bharatas, the actors.
