I'd like to share a pair of projects I've been working on for the past few months, both aimed at greater understanding of Sanskrit works and their authors, especially through increased accessibility to e-texts.

1. Pāṇḍitya is an online graph visualization tool illustrating connections between works and authors in the Pandit database. It is live at panditya.info, and I plan to present a paper on it this summer at WSC 19.

Blog post: Pāṇḍitya: A New Visual Exploration Tool for Sanskrit Intellectual Networks.

2. SETI, or the Sanskrit E-Text Inventory, is a metadata aggregation project that both stands alone as an open spreadsheet and integrates with Pāṇḍitya to allow navigating to online e-texts from its graphical interface. More info at panditya.info/seti.

May these resources be useful to you and your students, and please be in touch with feedback!

Kind regards,

Tyler
