Dear colleagues,
apologies for cross-posting.
this is to inform you of a new publication in the series "Sanskrit Texts
from the Tibetan Autonomous Region" published jointly by the Austrian
Academy of Sciences Press in Vienna and the China Tibetology Publishing
House in Beijing:
Tattvārthā. Sthiramati’s Abhidharmakośaṭīkā, Chapter 1, Part I.
Diplomatically edited by Nobuchiyo Odani in collaboration with Kazunobu
Matsuda and Hironori Tanaka.
Based on a newly discovered Sanskrit manuscript from Tibet, the book
contains the first part of the diplomatic edition of Sthiramati's
commentary on Vasubandhu's Abhidharmakośabhāṣya, which is more
ideological, philosophical, and challenging to comprehend compared to
Yaśomitra's more widely known Sphuṭārthā and complements the latter's
remarks, which focus on terminology and grammatical explanation. The
Tattvārthā is a crucial resource for tracing the controversy between the
Sarvāstivāda and the Sautrāntika in Sanskrit and for elucidating the
profound differences in thought between these two schools.
