Excerpt:(Dvangar: ; a patronymic meaning "descendant of ") was an Ancient Indian Sanskrit grammarian from Pushkalavati, Gandhara (fl. 4th century BCE). He is known for his Sanskrit grammar, particularly for his formulation of the 3,959 rules of Sanskrit morphology in the grammar known as Ashtadhyayi ( , meaning "eight chapters"), the foundational text of the grammatical branch of the Vedanga, the auxiliary scholarly disciplines of Vedic religion. The Ashtadhyayi is one of the earliest known grammars of Sanskrit, although he refers to previous texts like the Unadisutra, Dhatupatha, and Ganapatha. It is the earliest known work on descriptive linguistics and generative linguistics, and together with the work of his immediate predecessors (Nirukta, Nighantu, Pratishakyas) stands at the beginning of the history of linguistics itself. Pini's comprehensive and scientific theory of grammar is conventionally taken to mark the end of the period of Vedic Sanskrit, by definition introducing Classical Sanskrit. Nothing definite is known about Pini's life, not even the century he lived in. The scholarly mainstream favours a 4th century BC floruit, corresponding to Pushkalavati, Gandhara. Contemporary to the Nanda Dynasty ruling the Gangetic plain, but a 5th or even late 6th century BC date cannot be ruled out with certainty.

Les achats comprennent une adhésion à l'essai gratuite au club de livres de l'éditeur, dans lequel vous pouvez choisir parmi plus d'un million d'ouvrages, sans frais. Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Patanjali, Pāṇini, Yâska, Bhartrihari, Nagoji Bhatta, Kātyāyana. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Patañjali est un nom célèbre dans l'histoire intellectuelle de l'Asie méridionale. Ce nom est porté, semble-t-il, par deux érudits distincts. Le premier Patañjali serait le grammairien qui écrit en 200 av. J.-C. environ le Mahābhāṣya, « Grand Commentaire » de la « Grammaire en huit parties » , la Aṣṭādhyāyī , composée en 400 av. J.-C. environ par le grammairien Pāṇini. Le deuxième Patañjali serait le compilateur réel ou mythique du recueil classique des Yoga-Sūtra de date beaucoup plus récente, quelque part entre l'an 300 et l'an 500 après J.-C.. La tradition hindoue lui attribue la composition du Mahābhāṣya (Grand commentaire) de la grammaire de Pāṇini. Ce commentaire ne fonde pas la grammaire sanskrite, mais fournit une méthode d'interprétation qui servira de modèle à toute la littérature de commentaire de la scolastique sanskrite. Il est composé de longs débats dialogués émanant de plusieurs interlocuteurs soutenant des thèses différentes. Pami les thèses exposées par le Mahābhāṣya, figure la notion d'akriti analogue à la notion occidentale des universaux. L'akriti est le type général des choses d'une même espèce. La question discutée est de savoir si l'universel (l'élément commun dans la diversité des choses) n'est pas détruit quand elles sont détruites. Patanjali semble adopter avec hésitation l'idéalité et l'indestructibilité des universaux s'opposant au caractère éphémère des individualités concrètes. Le langage ne se rapporte donc pas aux individus passagers mais à des concepts englobant des classes d'objets. Les mots désignent donc les espèces, mais aussi les qualités, les actions et par co...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Kātyāyana (c. 3rd century BC) was a Sanskrit grammarian, mathematician and Vedic priest who lived in ancient India.Kātyāyana's views on the word-meaning connection tended towards naturalism. Kātyāyana believed, like Plato, that the word-meaning relationship was not a result of human convention. For Kātyāyana, word-meaning relations were siddha, given to us, eternal. Though the object a word is referring to is non-eternal, the substance of its meaning, like a lump of gold used to make different ornaments, remains undestroyed, and is therefore permanent. ...
