[INDOLOGY] new publication

[Raffaele Torella]

Dear Colleagues,

as the President of the Italian Association for Sanskrit Studies (AISS), I am delighted to announce the publication of volume 11 of the Corpus Iuris Sanscriticum et Fontes Iuris Asiae Meridianae et Centralis published by the Asia Institute Torino (AIT).

Tiziana Pontillo, Alessandro Giudice, Medhātithi’s Grammatical Notes on the Mānavadharmaśāstra: How Technicalities Can Shed Light on Ancient Indian Law, Torino: Edizioni AIT – Edizioni ETS 2025. 410 pp.

This volume concentrates on Medhātithi’s systematic recourse to grammatical sources in his Commentary on the Mānavadharmaśāstra, showing how Vyākaraṇa is an effective key hermeneutical tool for interpreting juridical language. On the other hand, this research emphasises the importance of non-grammatical commentaries in propagating and consolidating grammatical knowledge, constituting a missing link in the chain of traditional interpreters of Pāṇini’s grammar from the Kāśikāvṛtti to Navya Vyākaraṇa.

A PDF of this volume is available via Open Access at the following link: http://www.asiainstitutetorino.it/cis/CIS_11.pdf <https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.asiainstitutetorino.it/cis/CIS_11.pdf&source=gmail-imap&ust=1770128612000000&usg=AOvVaw36S-ZJxCt_ubtkm3xy-C9n>.

Cari saluti,
Raffaele
