[INDOLOGY] New publication from Vienna: Jinendrabuddhi's Pramāṇasamuccayaṭīkā, chapter 6

[Birgit Kellner]

Dear colleagues,

diplomatic and critical editions of the sixth chapter of 
Jinendrabuddhi's Pramāṇasamuccayaṭīkā by Motoi Ono, Yasutaka Muroya and 
Toshikazu Watanabe were just published in the series Sanskrit Texts from 
the Tibetan Autonomous Region (Austrian Academy of Sciences Press/China 
Tibetology Publishing House). This chapter deals with jāti, sometimes 
rendered as "futile rejoinder", a category in discussions of learned 
debate prior to Dignāga. Jinendrabuddhi's text offers insights into how 
this category was dealt with from the viewpoint of a logical theory that 
formed part of an overarching epistemological, not dialectical, 
framework and contains valuable materials for a better grounded and more 
precise understanding of the historical development of Indian logic at 
large and Buddhist logic in particular.

The volume was published in open access, supported by the Austrian 
Science Fund FWF. Visit

With best regards,

Birgit Kellner
