Description

Explore the deep history of South Indian Sanskrit manuscripts with this scholarly volume from Brill's Indological Library. This work represents a major step forward in understanding the manuscript traditions of South India, focusing on the palm leaf records that have shaped regional knowledge for centuries. Developed from a seminar at the International Institute for Asian Studies in Leiden, this book examines how text transmission functioned within India's strong oral memory traditions. It provides a detailed look at how these manuscripts, while often only a few centuries old, represent a continuous culture spanning two millennia. Researchers and students of Indology will find this volume helpful for studying the historical and theoretical issues of how knowledge was preserved and passed down through South Indian traditions.
