Description

This scholarly volume from Brill's Indological Library explores the history and significance of South Indian Sanskrit manuscripts. Based on a seminar at the International Institute for Asian Studies in Leiden, the book examines how palm leaf manuscripts, though often only three to four centuries old, represent a continuous manuscript culture spanning two millennia. The text provides a deep look into the traditions of knowledge and culture shaped by these documents. It includes an introductory essay by J.E.M. Houben and S. Rath that addresses theoretical and historical issues regarding text transmission in India. The work specifically looks at the relationship between written manuscripts and the country's strong oral memory traditions.
