[INDOLOGY] Resources for commentarial interpretations of particles

[Brendan]

The article by Emeneau, entitled "Sanskrit syntactic particles --- 
khalu, khila and nuunam", appeared, if I recall correctly, in JOAS in 1969.

I don't recall where Joel's article appeared.

I am particularly interested in presentations of the range of options that are available from vyākaraṇa analysis, and discussions of the metalanguage used (e.g. avadhāraṇa, samuccaya, sambhāvanā, atiśaya ...).
