Abstract

Kuru king Dhṛtarāṣṭra and his companion Saṃjaya belong to the few epic characters with intra and extradiegetic functions. They feature in the narration of the Mahābhārata as interlocutors establishing the narrative frame of the battle books and in the epic narrative as ‘narrated’ characters.In academic studies, the two characters do not receive much attention. The intradiegetic interactions between Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Saṃjaya, in particular, have not been studied in great detail, although they play a significant role in the epic narrative
