Sanskrit texts written in the 18th, 19th, 20th centuries

Out of so many (undeservedly) neglected works, I should like to recommend
Bhaskarakantha's (18th century) independent (.i. e. non-commentatorial)
composition "CittaanubodhaZaastra" for a closer study - just if you are after a
witty mind and skilled writer with autonomous ideas. No risk of entering the
ever boring Advaitavedanta mainstream scholasticism.

Ego ex animi mei sententia spondeo ac polliceor
me studia humanitatis impigro labore culturum et provecturum
non sordidi lucri causa nec ad vanam captandam gloriam,
sed quo magis veritas propagetur et lux eius, qua salus
humani generis continetur, clarius effulgeat.
