Adi Sankara on the Bhagavad Gita an example of the interpretation. Annotation of major terms. Bibliography. Index. Linguistic communities are interpretative they have shared frameworks and strategies to fix the meaning of what is experienced through senses or communicated through language. India presents one such interpretative community in which the three major contending schools of thought the Brahmins the Buddhists and the Jains flourished and fought. The presence of a strong interpretative tradition suggests the existence of texts and issues that are perennially important and also a certain freedom of mind that the community has enjoyed and guaranteed. The present study is perhaps the first comprehensive analysis of this tradition concerned with the problems of determining meaning in verbal texts. It examines the nature of the texts and the typology of textual situations in response to which a system of interpretation developed and became a shared mode of interpretation the Sastra Paddhati. It sets up several typologies of meaning of textual situations and of the interpretative strategies. The book then investigates the instruments of interpretation verbal testimony Sarvabhauma Siddhanta (the meta principle) Sangati (coherence) Paribhasa (metarules) Laukika nyaya (common principles of judgement) Vyakarana grammar) Nirvacana exposition or etymology) and verbal symbolism and illustrates the use that is made of them in different kinds of texts sruti smrti and kavya and by different exegetes such as Sankara. At a time of resurgence of interest in the Indian intellectual traditions in grammar philosophy logic theories of meaning and poetics and as part of a transdisciplinary search for abstract structures of knowledge this book should be of interest to students and scholars of Indian languages linguistics semiotics and literatures and generate lively intellectual controversy among scholars and motivate further research and study in these areas. 220 pp.…

Soft cover. Condizione: New. Two cultures of the world Greek and Indian have nourished literature. While the contemporary Western thinking is rooted in Greek thought, especially of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, and percolated down to the modern European languages with the advent of Christian thought, the multilingual Indian literary tradition has its base from the classical Tamil, Pali, Prakr̥t and Sanskrit. Though cultural specificity marks these two traditions off from each other, the universal human condition that finds expression in all literatures binds them together. This book delves deep into the growth of poetics, theory of literature, literary artifacts, aesthetics of literature as an art form, and dramaturgy and philosophy of literature. Cultures have given forms as their typical expressions for India great epics, for Greece tragedies, and for England lyrics. Similarly, different ages of a culture find expression in different forms Elizabethan age of England in lyrics, sixteenth-seventeenth centuries in drama, eighteenth century in prose, and nineteenth century in novel. India's genius is in epics and its expression unfolds in sravya-prekṣa compositions, being singable poetry as its preferred form. This book must serve pretty useful for students and teachers of literature. Also, an invaluable collection for researchers in literature.…

Appendix Judgement of the Supreme Court of India regarding Sanskrit. Index. The educated Indian mind of today is by and large subjugated by the contemporary ethnographic conflict oriented divisive thought and ideologies of the west. This can be corrected only by the thought structure in the Sanskrit intellectual texts. Two learned supreme court judges noted in 1993 the people of India have always held in high esteem the cultural heritage of this ancient land. And learning of Sanskrit is undoubtedly necessary for protection of this heritage. And the 1986 education policy said efforts will be made to delve into India's ancient fund of knowledge and to relate it to contemporary reality. This effort will imply the development of facilities for the intensive study of Sanskrit. With this in mind JNU set up in 2002 the Special Centre for Sanskrit Studies to examine and relate Indian thought systems both to the contemporary Indian reality and the contemporary western thinking. A research journal/publication is integral to this vision. This volume is the first issue and it promises a continuous commitment to Indian thought its validity and value. This book ranges over logic grammar philosophy environment aesthetics interpretation science epic poetry India's cultural presence in Asia and maintenance of texts and as such should interest students researchers and teachers of languages literature sciences and philosophy. 288 pp.…
