Logic, Language and Reality |
$44.99 $31.49 |
|
| In this book, the author has choosen deliberatly a very dominant trend of the classical philosophical literature as his subject of study.
The age of the material used here demands both philological scholaship and philosophical amplification. Several important concepts and theories have been singled out for critical analysis and clarification in modern terms so that the results may be intelligible to modern students of both sanskrit and philosophy.

Pali English Dictionary |
$63.99 $44.79 |

| As the Pali Text Society began issuing editions and translations of the Pali Canon and Commentaries in quick succession, Rhys Davids conceived the idea of the compilation of an exhaustive dictionary of Pali, based on the voluminous basic material that was being brought to light.
The work took more than twenty years of devoted labour, but before his death in 1992, Rhys Davids had the satisfaction of seeing its first volume published. In four volumes, issued over 1921-24, the Dictionary... |

Pali Primer |
$4.99 $3.49 |
|
| The Pali Primer is a good introduction for non-academic Pali students. The pace is good, with lots of examples. It is light on the technical background of the language and so leaves the student with gaps in terms of morphology and some of the more obscure usages, so perhaps having Warder, or a full Pali grammar to refer to would be advantageous. I like Gair and Karunatillake as a reference as well. |

| Process and Language is a comprehensive and detailed study of the semantics of verbs in Sanskrit as presented by Patanjali in his commentary, Mahabhasya, on Astadhyayi, 1.3.1 Bhuvadayo dhatavah. This portion of his commentary contains a skillfully arranged discussion of topics related to the linguistic units, known as verbal roots, or dhatu. A verbal root is the core of the derivation of any utterance in Panini's grammar. In his Vakyapadiya, Bhartrhair, a later Paniniya, defined the meaning of... |

Rabindranath Tagore - The Builders of Indian Philosophy Series |
$25.49 $17.84 |
|
| A renaissance figure and marvel that Rabindranath Tagore has been, an analytical predilection of philosophy is hardly enough for comprehending his phenomenal creativity and expression of the highest values of will and feeling.
Often the question whether Tagore is a philosopher is quite idle, as idle as whether Nietzsche is a philosopher, or the author of Philosophical Investigations is a philosopher. It is easier to deride the high and naked peaks of synoptic insight and opt for the worship... |
