Abstract
The paper titled “Reimagining Myths and History: A Critical Study of Shiva Trilogy by Amish Tripathi, is a historical fraction. Myth has significant role in man's everyday life in the form of rituals, dreams, customs, religious beliefs, etc. It has various facets for various purposes and each facet is unique and realistic to the perceiver who consciously or sub-consciously adopts it or transforms it. Myth dominates and shapes not only the individual psyche but also the whole cultural aspect of the people. Amish Tripathi has adopted the original myth of India and has re-narrated them in his writings. The author’s presentation of myth does not alter the belief or faith of the original, but gives an opportunity to re-read the myths of Shiva from different perspectives. Shiva Trilogy, published a series of three books including- The Immortals of Meluha, The Secret of Nagas and The Oath of the Vayuputras. It deals with Lord Shiva, the well-known Indian God, acclaimed as the destroyer of evil. Tripathi borrows many characters and incidents from Indian myths, reshapes them with scientific theories, and recreates them as mortals of the world. He has re-created Lord Shiva as a human with flesh and blood who has been worshipped and becomes immortal not by his name but by his actions.
