Thank you for sending this very interesting paper. Has the edition announced there been published?
Dear colleagues,
All thanks for this very interesting discussion.
I would like to add another stone to the edifice of reasoning.
In 2018, Judit Törzsök and I published a paper entitled "Abhinavagupta on the Kashmirian
Gītā. Announcement of the First Critical Edition of the Gītārthasaṃgraha,
with the Reconstruction of the Text of the Kashmirian Gītā [..] and a French translation of Both Texts", in
Journal of Indian Philosophy (46.1: 31-64).
Its final section (an Appendix, in fact), p.50 ff., deals with the (?) Bhāskara (his identity, his place of origin, his philosophical persuasion, etc.) under consideration in the platform’s discussion.
I attach the paper, hoping that our colleagues might find further information there, and perhaps new material for other conclusions.
Best wishes,
Lyne
NB: Some of you referred to Kato 2014. It happened that while preparing the J’s paper, I came through a first draft of Kato’s paper, and that I suggested a few emendations, mostly on the reasoning; see the printed Kato’s paper. It so happens that I had access to a first version of his paper and that I suggested some amendments, primarily concerning the reasoning.
