Dvâdasha Stotra is a collection of twelve stotras in praise of Vishnu, composed by Srimad Ananda Tîrtha.
The Dvâdasha Stotra, in particular among the works of Srimad Ananda Tîrtha, seems to have a depth of its own, more so as it is not confined to one topic or composition but is wide ranging.
The exact circumstances under which the stotra was created are not known to a certainty, and various conflicting accounts exist.

 Cover Story
We believe that the list is adequately wide-ranging, as many well-known Stotras have been covered, as also the Stotras of well-known scholars/sages like Sri Sankara Bhagavatpada, Sri Vedanta Desika and others.
There is no special significance about the order in which they have been presented and it is certainly not the intention to indicate that what is presented first is relatively more important than what is presented last.
Generally speaking, the "phalashruti" of most of these Stotras is to ward off dangers, to ensure victory over enemies (in the largest sense of that term, including internal enemies) to ensure that all that is good and great is attained and to ensure liberation.

 Sahasranama - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is in this context Hinduism is indebted to Vyasa (pronounced Vyāsa), the author of the Mahabharata (pronounced Mahābhārata) and the whole host of Puranas and Upa-puranas for interpolating in the narrative parts of all his writings innumerable stotras (poems of praise).
There are also innumerable smaller stotras, called ashtottara-shata-nāma stotras, which have only 108 names.
Each one of these is a matchless long streamlined poem densely packed with meaning and seemingly endless recital of the Lord's names, glories and splendours, coupled with poetic elegance and grace.
