Having been inspired by the new translation by Alain Danielou, and relevant
to an ongoing project, I decided to take a look at the _Kaamasuutram_. I
am having trouble finding a decent edition of the text, however. One
Inter Library Loan request for an edition from 1912 (Benares) was denied
because the volume is too fragile to lend. I have no reliable and
up-to-date information about editions of the text, and of course
Jayamangala's commentary. Does a critical editon exist? I really would
only be able to use an edition in nagari (or of course romanization; I know
there are several in Oriya or Bengali script, neither of which I can
read.).
Is there an up-to-date and reliable survey of the erotics literature?
References highly appreciated.
