The Kasiikavrrtti of Jayaditya-Vamana A Complete Exposition of Panini’s Astadhyayi
Author:
Publisher: Jadavpur University Press
ISBN:
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 756
Book Description
Pāṇini’s monumental grammar Aṣṭādhyāyī, embodied in nearly 4000 cryptic statements called sūtra-s, remains incomprehensible without the aid of detailed explanations and commentaries. The Kāśikāvṛtti, a Sanskrit work ascribed to Jayāditya and Vāmana of about the 7th century CE, stands out among the great mass of commentarial literature as the only exposition that covers all the sūtra-s in their Pāṇinian sequence. It is marked by its lucid explanations, simplicity of style, abundance of illustrative examples, and a profound awareness of grammatical works that preceded it, like the Mahābhāṣya and Cāndra-Vyākaraṇa. The Kāśikāvṛtti has therefore served as the basic source on which any Aṣṭādhyāyī exposition in any language should rely, up to the present day. The present series, of which this is the first volume, is intended to offer the complete Kāśikā with an accurate English translation and explanation, sources and analysis of the examples, and its possible relation to predecessors in its field. It is hoped that this unabridged and annotated English version will not only bring the whole Kāśikā within the reach of the modern reader, but will generally make Pāṇini’s grammar an interesting journey as well.

Floodlights and Touchlines: A History of Spectator Sport
Author: Rob Steen

ISBN: 1408181363
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2014 Spectator sport is living, breathing, non-stop theatre for all. Focusing on spectator sports and their accompanying issues, tracing their origins, evolution and impact, inside the lines and beyond the boundary, this book offers a thematic history of professional sport and the ingredients that magnetise millions around the globe. It tells the stories that matter: from the gladiators of Rome to the runners of Rift Valley via the innovator-missionaries of Rugby School; from multi-faceted British exports to the Americanisation of professionalism and the Indianisation of cricket. Rob Steen traces the development of these sports which captivate the turnstile millions and the mouse-clicking masses, addressing their key themes and commonalities, from creation myths to match fixing via race, politics, sexuality and internationalism. Insightful and revelatory, this is an entertaining exploration of spectator sports' intrinsic place in culture and how sport imitates life – and life imitates sport.
