Journal & Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal July 1910

1910

Refutation of Max Miller's theory of the Renaissance of Sanskrit literature in the fourth century A. D. after a lull of seven centuries from the time of the rise of Buddhism. [...] The Agoka inscriptions are all written in the local dialects of the third century B. C. The Dagaratha inscritions are in the dialect of the earlier part of the second century B. C. the earlier inscriptions of the Barhat and Sänchi topes belong to the vernacular of about the same period. [...] In the interest of truth therefore the theory requires a thorough examination in the light of the discoveries of the last thirty or forty years a period of great activity in the search of Sanskrit manuscripts and in giving descriptive catalogues to them. [...] The degree of Sanskritization increased as time went on as is evidenced by the variety of the forms of the language found in Gathas embodied in later Sanskrit works like the Lalitavistara and the Saddliarmapu►iclarika. [...] The first is the son of Vidydniviisa and the grandson of Bliaviinanda and the second son of Vidyavilasa.
