Notes on Some Sanskrit Manuscripts on Alamkara in the Madras Government Oriental MSS. Library

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 December 2009

Extract

During the Third Session of the Oriental Conference held in Madras (December, 1924) I had the opportunity of examining cursorily some newly acquired manuscripts on Sanskrit Alamkāraśāstra in the Government Oriental Manuscripts Library. I propose in this paper to note briefly certain pieces of information which I have been able to gather from them, as it was too late to incorporate them in the second volume of my Sanskrit Poetics (to which I refer below as SP.).

page 280 note 1 There are some verses in āryā which are quoted from Rudrata by Pratīhārendurāja by way of illustration; these could not have been given by Udbhata. For instance, the illustrative verse kajjala-hima-kanaka°, at p. 43, is quoted from Rudrata, vii, 36, while the verse immediately preceding (cited with a tad uktam, p. 42) is not a kārimkā-verse of Udbhata's as printed, but quoted in the commentary from Rudrata, vii, 35. Rudrata is also quoted by Pratīhārendurāja without being actually named at pp. 11 (= R., viii, 40), 31 (= R., viii, 89), 34 (= R., viii, 94), 49 (=R., xii, 4). There are quotations by Pratīhārendurāja from other sources also, e.g. from Megha-dūta at p. 18.
