Dear colleagues,
I read in Ulloor S. Parameswara Aiyer's Kerala
Sahityacaritram (History of Kerala Literature),
vol. 1, p. 349, that Samudrabandha (who lived at
the Court of Ravivarman Kula/sekhara around 1300
AD, being the author of a commentary on the
ala.mkaarasarvasva with examples in praise of the
king) had a son, Si.mharaaja by name, who
composed a work bearing the title
Praak.rtaruupaavataara (beside a commentary on
the Karpuuramañjariisa.t.taka).
Has anybody an idea of the nature of this
Praak.rtaruupaavataara (which "clarifies the
scholarship in Praakrit language" -
praak.rtabhaa.sayil ulla paa.n.dityatte
spa.s.tiikarikkunnu) and if it has been published?
Thank you very much,
Christophe Vielle
