KĀVYĀDARŚA 89

the com. of प्रेमचन्द्रतर्कवागीश, in 1890 by Bohtlingk with a German translation, in 1910 at Madras by Prof. Rangacharya with two commentaries, in Poona by Dr. Belvalkar and Shastri Rangacharya Raddi and by Pandit Rangacharya Raddi with his own commentary in 1938 (from B. O. R. I.). The work is divided into three परिच्छेदs; in Prof. Rangacharya's edition there are four परिच्छेदs, the third परि० of the other editions being split up into two. The fourth परिच्छेद in the Madras edition begins with the treatment of atqs. There are in all 660 verses (in the Calcutta edition and in Pandit Raddi's ed.), while in the Madras edition there are 663 verses (the famous verse लिम्पतीव ... गता being omitted in the 2nd परि०, 2 added at the end of its 3rd ufto, one added at the begi- nning of its 4th qfto and one more in the middle viz. the verse आधिव्याधिपरीताय अध श्वो वा विनाशिने। को हि नाम शरीराय धर्मापेतं समाचरेत् ।I' after III. 160 of the Calcutta edition). It is the edition of Pandit Rangacharya from which citations are made here. The first परिच्छेद defines kauya, divides the latter into गद्य, पद्य and मिश्र; defines सर्गबन्ध; refers to two varieties of गध्य viz. आख्यायिका and कथा and remarks that there is really no distinction between the two; divides literature into संस्कृत, प्राकृत, अपभ्रश and मिश्र; speaks of the two styles वैदर्भ and गौड and of the ten gunas; defines and illustrates अनुप्रास; mentions the three essentials that contribute to the making of a poet, viz. प्रतिभा '(imagination), श्रुति (culture) and अभियोग (constant practice) The second परिच्छेद defines the word अलक्कार, enumerates 35 alankaras and illustrates them. The अलक्कारs treated of are (in order) स्वभावोक्ति, उपमा, रूपक, दीपक, आवृत्ति, आक्षेप, अर्थान्तरन्यास, व्यतिरेक, विभावना, समासोक्ति, अतिशयोक्ति, उत्प्रेक्षा, हेतु, सूक्षम, लेश (or लव), यथासंख्य (or क्रम), प्रेयः, रसवत्, ऊजस्वि, पर्यायोक्त, समाहित, उदात्त, अरह्नुति, श्लेष, विशेषोक्ति, तुल्ययोगिता, विरोध, अप्रस्तुतप्रशंसा, व्याजोक्ति, निदर्शना, सहोक्ति, परिवृत्ति, आशीः, सक्कीर्, and भाविक. The third परिच्छेद gives an elaborate treatment of यमक, defines and illustrates. such चित्रबन्धS as गोमूत्रिका, अर्धभ्रम, सर्वतोभद्र, स्वरस्था- नवशनियम; gives 16 varieties of प्रहेलिकाs and illustrates ten kinds of दोषड.
