Kavya (poetry)

: Shodhganga: A critical appreciation of soddhalas udayasundarikatha

Abhinanda (अभिनन्�).—Soḍḍhala in his work menticna Abhinanda in several places. He says that his patron was Hāravarṣa Yuvarāja. Abhinanda himself also mentions the same in his Rāmacarita. Soḍḍhala puts him along with well-known authors like Vākpatirāja, Kālisa and Bāṇa. He is referred to as the lord of the speech, Vāgīśvara.

His Rāmacarita is a charming piece of composition in the form of a Mahākāvya. Thirty six cantos of the work undoubtedly belong to Abhinanda and the last four, as the colophon of the 40th canto shows, seem to be added by Bhīmakavi. The anthologies, Kavīndravacanasamuccaya, Sadūktikarṇāmṛta, Sūktimuktāvali and Śārṅgadharapaddhati quote profusely from the works of Abhinanda.
