Kavyalankara-sara-sangraha of Udbhata
by Narayana Daso Banhatti | 1925
This is the Sanskrit edition Kavyalankara Sara Sangraha, including the Laghuvritti commentary of Induraja, an English introduction, notes and appendices.

Appendix 1 - Variae Lectiones
APPENDIX I. Variae Lectiones. The MS. acquired by Buhler and diposited in the Deccan College Mss. Library (now removed to the Bhand. arkar Oriental Research Institute, Poona is called D.). Our Edition is mainly based on this MS. The MS. deposited in the Government Oriental MSS. Library, Madras, a copy of which has been acquired by us, is designated M. The commentaries contained in both these MSS. are different. The Appendix, therefore, consists mainly of the variant readings occurring in the Karikas and the examples of Udbhata. Sometimes, however, readings in the commentary of Induraja (MS. D.) are also quoted to point out aberrations in the Nirnaya Sagara Edition. Thus, those quotations which do not concern the text of Udbhata, occurring either in Karikas or examples, but are taken from the commentary of Induraja are marked with an asterisk. All others, not bearing the mark of an asterisk, are genuine variae lectiones of the text of Udbhata. The Nirnaya Sagara Edition of 'Kavyalankarasangraha' is briefly referred to as N. S. Ed. VARGA I. D. begins thus : || namo vitaragaya || yalaksmya hasitaih After the three stanzas which constitute the commentator's c, it gives the Karikas of the original author as etc. M. begins directly with the stanza faro (quoted in our Notes, p. 1); after that it proceeds with the Karikas.
