Arjuna: history and tradition

Arjuna is one of the Pandava brothers in the Mahabharata. The Pandavas’ exile shapes many episodes of the epic. Arjuna’s crisis and Krishna’s teaching form the Bhagavad Gita. The epic treats victory as inseparable from grief and responsibility. This is a literary and religious tradition, not a dated historical biography. Different tellings have different episodes and interpretations.
