- Title
Āgamārthānusāribhiḥ. Helārāja's Use of Quotations and Other Referential Devices in His Commentary on the Vākyapadīya.
- Authors
Vergiani, Vincenzo
- Abstract
Examining the function and style of the references to grammatical literature found in a substantial section of Helārāja's Prakīrṇaprakāśa on Bhartṛhari's third book of the Vākyapadīya, the article argues that the likely ideological motive of this commentary was to establish its mūla work firmly within the Brahmanical canon and should therefore be seen in the context of the appropriation of Bhartṛhari's ideas on the part of the roughly contemporary Pratyabhijñā philosophers of Kashmir. Incidentally, it also touches upon the making of the Pāṇinian tradition and the relation between Helārāja and Kaiyaṭa, the Kashmiri commentator of Mahābhāṣya.
