Dear All,

I have discovered in my files that there is a dissertation on the Padaprakāśa by Ājaḍa, a hitherto unpublished commentary on the Sarasvatīkaṇṭhābharaṇa (alaṅkāra). It appears to be missing in Cahill's bibliography, but perhaps I have overlooked something.

The bibliographical details are:

A / Critical Edition of Padaprakāśa / hitherto unpublished commentary / of / Ājaḍa / on / Bhoja's Sarasvatīkaṇṭhābharaṇa

The thesis submitted for Ph.D. degree / of / Gujurat University, Ahmedabad. 1984

Dear all,

with the kind help of Lidia Szczepanik (SOAS London) and Jesse Knutson (Hawaii Manoa) I've managed to put together Katsuhiko Kamimura's edition of the little known commentary by Bhaṭṭa Narasiṃha on the Sarasvatīkaṇṭhābharaṇa. This edition appeared in the 70s scattered in various issues of hard-to-find Japanese journals. It is not even mentioned in Cahill's otherwise impeccable Annotated Bibliography, and I came across it by mere chance. I hope this might be of some interest for the ālaṃkārikas amongst us. It can be downloaded at this Dropbox link.

Best,
