  • Why Are Sanskrit Play Titles Strange?
    STEPHAN HILLYER LEVITT WHY ARE SANSKRIT PLAY TITLES STRANGE? 1. Introduction Many Sanskrit play titles generally have presented problems to translators and lexicographers. On the one hand, we have such titles as Bhavabhæti’s Målatœmådhava, which is taken to refer jointly to the play’s hero Mådhava and the play’s heroine Målatœ, and which is translated, “Målatœ and Mådhava”. The translation appears to be supported by Viƒvanåtha Kaviråja’s treatise on dramaturgy, the Såhityadarpa∫a, in Såhityadarpa∫a 6.142-143 1. Or we have a title such as Kålidåsa’s Målavikågnimitra, which is also standardly taken to refer to the play’s hero Agnimitra and its heroine Målavikå. This is translated, “Målavikå and Agnimitra”. Alternately, we have such titles as Bha™™a Nåråya∫a’s Ve∫œsaμhåra, which is understood to be a Sanskrit compound mean- ing, “The Binding (saμhåra) of the Braid of Hair (ve∫œ)”. It refers to an incident in the Mahåbhårata in which Draupadœ is humiliated and vows never to braid her hair again until her humiliation has been avenged. Or we have Bhavabhæti’s Uttararåmacarita, which is under- 1. The Mirror of Composition, A Treatise on Poetical Composition, Being an English Translation of the Såhitya-Darpa∫a of Viƒwanåtha Kaviråja, transl. by J. R. Ballantyne and P. D. Mitra, Calcutta, 1875, p. 225, nos. 427-429; Såhityadarpa∫a of Viƒvanåtha Kaviråja, ed. by D. Dviveda, 1922, rpt. New Delhi, 1982, p. 330. 196 Stephan Hillyer Levitt stood to be a Sanskrit compound meaning, “The Later (uttara) Deeds (carita) of Råma (råma)”. This play is based on the last book of the Råmåya∫a and deals with events that occur after Råma returns to Ayodhyå as king.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Goods that Cannot Be Stolen: Mercantile Faith in Kumāralāta’s Garland of Examples Adorned by Poetic Fancy A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures by Diego Loukota Sanclemente 2019 © Copyright by Diego Loukota Sanclemente 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Goods that Cannot Be Stolen: Mercantile Faith in Kumāralāta’s Garland of Examples Adorned by Poetic Fancy by Diego Loukota Sanclemente Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Gregory Schopen, Co-chair Professor Stephanie J. Watkins, Co-chair This dissertation examines the affinity between the urban mercantile classes of ancient India and contemporary Buddhist faith through an examination of the narrative collection Kalpanāmaṇḍitikā Dṛṣṭāntapaṅkti (“Garland of Examples,” henceforth Kumāralāta’s Garland) by the 3rd Century CE Gandhāran monk Kumāralāta. The collection features realistic narratives that portray the religious sensibility of those social classes. I contend that as Kumāralāta’s 3rd Century was one of crisis for cities and for trade in the Indian world, his work reflects an urgent statement of the core values of ii Buddhist urban businesspeople. Kumāralāta’s stories emphasize both religious piety and the pursuit of wealth, a concern for social respectability, a strong work ethic, and an emphasis on rational decision-making. These values inform Kumāralāta’s religious vision of poverty and wealth. His vision of religious giving conjugates economic behavior and religious doctrine, and the outcome is a model that confers religious legitimation to the pursuit of wealth but also an economic outlet for religious fervor and a solid financial basis for the monastic establishment, depicted by Kumāralāta in close interdependence with the laity and, most importantly, within the same social class.

  • HISTORICAL SYNTAX the Syntax of Sanskrit Compounds John J
    HISTORICAL SYNTAX The syntax of Sanskrit compounds John J. Lowe University of Oxford Classical Sanskrit is well known for making extensive use of compounding. I argue, within a lexicalist framework, that the major rules of compounding in Sanskrit can be most appropriately characterized in syntactic, not morphological, terms. That is, Classical Sanskrit ‘compounds’ are in fact very often syntactic phrases. The syntactic analysis proposed captures the fact that com - pound formation is closer to a morphological process than other aspects of syntax, and so permits some acknowledgment of the gradient nature of the word –phrase divide, even within a strictly lex - icalist theory. * Keywords : compounds, syntax, lexicalism, Sanskrit, lexical-functional grammar (LFG) 1. Introduction . Classical Sanskrit is well known for making extensive use of com - pounding ; indeed , modern Western linguistics has adopted the Sanskrit grammatical terms for some compound types, such as bahuvrīhi and dvandva . In this article, I dis - cuss the morphosyntactic status of Classical Sanskrit compounds. I argue that the major rules of compounding in Sanskrit can be most appropriately characterized in syntactic, not morphological, terms : that is , as syntactic phrases rather than as complex words. The position of compounds on the cline between syntactic phrase and lexical unit, in particular in English but also crosslinguistically, has been the subject of considerable debate and is a prominent topic in morphological work on the definition of a word. The topic has not been so widely treated in syntactic literature. Within strict lexicalist theo - ries in particular, there is relatively little work on compounds and, perhaps, little moti - vation to treat them, since a lexical analysis is always possible.

  • Sanskrit Compound Paraphrase Generator
    Sanskrit Compound Paraphrase Generator Anil Kumar1, V.Sheebasudheer2, Amba Kulkarni3 1Department of Sanskrit Studies, University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad, [email protected], 2Chinmaya International Foundation Shodhasansthan, Veliyanad, Kerala, [email protected], 3Dept. of Sanskrit Studies, University of Hyderbad, Hyderabad, [email protected] Abstract Sanskrit is very rich in compound formation unlike modern Indian Languages. The compound formation being productive it forms an open-set and as such it is also not possible to list all the compounds in a dictionary. The compound formation involves a mandatory sandhi. But mere sandhi splitting does not help a reader in identifying the meaning of a compound, since typically a compound does not code the relation between its components explicitly. To understand the meaning of a compound, it is necessary to identify its components and discover the relation between them. An expression providing the meaning of a compound is called a paraphrase. In this paper, we summarize our experience in building an automatic paraphrase generator for Sanskrit compounds. On the face of it, it simply turns out to be a generation problem and hence should be trivial. The actual implementation, however needed a morphological analyser that can handle the bound morphemes in compounds. The paraphrase handler could produce correct paraphrases for around 90% of the compounds. 1 Introduction Sanskrit has more than 2500 years old almost exhaustive grammar in the form of P¯anini’s As.t¯adhy¯ay¯ı which has the features of computationality. However, only recently Sanskrit Computional Linguistics1 has gained a momentum. In this decade there have been many efforts to develop computational tools to access Sanskrit texts ( [[3]], [[7]], [[12]], [[8]], [[2]]).

EXOCENTRIC (BAHUVR¯IHI) COMPOUNDS IN CLASSICAL SANSKRIT Brendan S. Gillon McGill University 1 Introduction Constituency grammars originated with Leonard Bloomfield (1933) and were developed during the nineteen forties and nineteen fifties by a number of American structuralist linguists, including Harris (1946) and Wells (1947) — to mention just two. In the late nineteen fifties, Chomsky (1957) suggested that constituency grammars could be formalized as context free grammars. It is now clear that context free grammars fall short of properly formalizing the constituency grammars of the American Structuralists (Manaster-Ramer and Kac 1990). Indeed, in the nineteen sixties, Chomsky himself formalized a number of other important aspects of constituency grammars, introducing more complexity to the labels, both terminal and non-terminal, and permit- ting the use of null elements. Though constituency grammars were initially conceived of as applying to phrases, work in the nineteen eighties (Di Sciullo and Williams 1987; Selkirk 1982; Williams 1981) showed that such rules could be used to analyze profitably compounds and derivational morphology of English.
