In 13th-century Gujarat, the court of the Caulukya emperors in AášahilavÄá¸a-PÄášan offered patronage and employment to a highly learned group of individuals. These men also wrote poetry and drama in their spare time â for their amusement, as a mark of culture and to comment upon the events of their times. Within this group, SomeĹvaradeva, royal chaplain to the Caulukya monarch BhÄŤma II and his VÄghela successors LavaášaprasÄda and VÄŤradhavala, was renowned for having written a composition in only one and a half hours. He offers us in his writings a wealth of historical information on his political circumstances, along with subtle reflections on the ethics of poetry. Who is a good poet? Who is a bad poet? Is a good poet a virtuous individual (sajjana)? Is a bad poet a rogue (durjana)? Who are the models of poetic propriety? Such are some of SomeĹvaradevaâs concerns. These frequently satirical commentaries on standards of poetry and the ideal poetic disposition appear in the preambles to his two epic poems, the Surathotsava 1.30â64 and the KÄŤrtikaumudÄŤ 1.7â46. Despite their sophistication, they have hardly interested most scholars working on these texts. The article analyses these passages in detail for the first time, and examines the ethics that SomeĹvaradeva, and the poets of his company, felt underlay the art of poetry.
