Kavya is a Sanskrit literary style that originated in India around 200 BCE and flourished until 1200 CE. It is characterized by the use of elaborate figures of speech, such as metaphors, similes, and hyperbole, to create a rich and evocative emotional effect. Kavya can refer to both poetry and prose, and it includes a wide variety of genres, such as epics, courtly romances, and lyric poems.
