Book Description

Preface

At the time when the plan of the present work was laid before the Council of the Asiatic Society, during my stay in India in the year 1883, the Manvarthamuktavali of Kullakabhatta was the only one Sanskrit Commentary of Manu extant in print, and the large number of printed editions of his celebrated composition offered a strange contrast with the entire neglect of the less famous, but more valuable and original works of the various other Commentators of the Code of Manu. It has been shown elsewhere that Kull,kabhatia was a mere plagiary, and has generally copied the glosses of his predecessor Govindaraja without acknowledgment, or rather trying to veil the true nature of his own composition by indulging every now and then in ferocious attacks on the very work to which he was indebted to such a large extent. Indeed, the recovery of Govinda- raja's Manut ka has put Kallika entirely in the shade, and the publication of the Manutika, which appears to have been composed as early as the twelfth or thirteenth century, had therefore to be considered as a special desideratum, especially as Kull,ka's epitome of it consisted in many instances of insufficient and garbled extracts.
