An Account of Values and Ethics manifest in Indian Epics and Analysis of the Role of Globalization upon these Values and Ethics

Abstract

Values and ethics are the building blocks of any society which imparts to it the identity and the reason for its existence. These are the inherent qualities of individuals who respond to several changes and help the society to be reactive and vibrant and also respond to the changes that come across as a part of the process of globalization. As the world becomes smaller day by day, transformation comes over every aspect but the values which have been running through ages remain eternal; our age old literature has a role to play in this. The Indian epics which have inspired people across the times still continue to do so in the course of their daily lives. This paper aims to bring forward the role played by the process of globalization upon the values and ethics projected by the epics
