Language of the snakes traces the history of the prakrit language as a literary phenomenon, starting from its cultivation in courts of the deccan in the first centuries of the common era. Although little studied today, prakrit was an important vector of the kavya movement and once joined sanskrit at the apex of classical indian literary culture.
