Hello Harry,

Here is the bibliographic reference to one of my old articles:

1993. "Inscriptional Evidence for Honorific Śrī in Indo-Aryan." In Perspectives in Indian Aesthetics and Literature, Essays in Honour of the Late Prof. Dr. G. K. Bhat, edited by Saroj Deshpande and Maneesha Dikshit. Pp. 254-278. Pune, India: Dastane Ramchandra & Co.

I don't have a ready pdf of this publication, but if you don't have access to this book, I can hunt for my copy of it.

Can any list members give me the bibliographic information of any indological articles on the history and use of "śrī" as a honorific or title of respect. Or better yet send me a pdf of any such articles.

Many thanks,
Harry Spier
