[INDOLOGY] On Tamil puravi and ivul̥i, "horse"

[Jean-Luc Chevillard]

Dear Herman,


as I told you recently in my private answer to your previous Indology 
list message, I have all the early ijdl journal issues in my Paris flat.


I acquired them long ago, in the early eighties, when I became a life 
member of the DLA, thanks to professor Muthu Shanmugam Pillai, who had 
retired from Madurai Kamaraj University and was then the head of the 
Pondicherry branch of the DLA, which later became the PILC.


After that, when I moved around during the following 40 years, I did not 
always manage to have the DLA keep track of my changing adresses and a 
few issues got lost


However, I shall not go to Paris for a long time and therefore it is 
impossible for me to scan the Burrow 1972 article for you at the moment


I see on the association web site that only the recent versions of the 
ijdl are available online


https://www.ijdl.org/Html/IJDL.htm


for the 1972-2020 one only gets the cover page


https://www.ijdl.org/Html/IJDL%20COMBINED%20CONTENT%20PAGES%20(1972-2020).pdf


That's a pity


I hope they improve the situation


Hopefully, someone on this list knows better


Best wishes


-- Jean-Luc (near Hamburg)
