Abstract:
The string of territories called Campā, lying in what is today Vietnam, has yielded about two hundred and fifty inscriptions spanning over ten centuries, from ca. 400 well into the fifteenth century ce. These inscriptions have not yet drawn much attention from the point of view of the shared religious history of South and Southeast Asia. In the present contribution, we focus on a group of seven short Sanskrit inscriptions issued by a king named Prakāśadharman-Vikrāntavarman who ruled in the seventh century.

Abstract:
This article deals with the issue of recording royal titles in inscriptions in the languages ​​of the Indian cultural tradition: Sanskrit and Pali. Using the example of a study of sources, the phenomenon of using the notation of titles is demonstrated, taking into account the use of Sanskrit spelling norms in inscriptions in the Pali language written using the Mon script. Such a phenomenon is of a non-permanent, variable in nature, which indicates the absence of a clear standard for recording the royal title in Pagan.

Abstract When the astrolabe was introduced in India around the eleventh century, it was received with great enthusiasm. While the Muslims continued the Middle Eastern tradition of the study and manufacture of the astrolabe, the Hindus and Jains, who did not read Arabic, composed manuals on the astrolabe in Sanskrit, produced astrolabes with Sanskrit inscriptions, and also occasionally added Sanskrit legends to the Arabic/Persian astrolabes. A very large astrolabe, which is thoroughly reworked in this manner with Sanskrit legends, is the subject of this paper. During the process of reworking th

The Rāmāyana of Vālmīki is said to be the ‘first kāvya’ (poem) in Sanskrit, but the age of its compilation is uncertain. The Junagarh inscription of the Śaka ruler Rudradāman, ad 150, is the first datable Sanskrit poem belonging to the category of praśastis. Praśastis became increasingly common subsequently as a tool of flattery and means of monarchical legitimisation. In time it became normal for every sovereign to have a praśasti composed for himself, so that inscriptions carrying praśastis tended to become more and more numerous.

From the available sources it appears that meditation on the feet—whether on a god's or on a king's—came to be common practice only from around the tenth century in India.

Early inscriptions written in Indian languages and scripts abound in Southeast Asia. Literacy in the very early states of Southeast Asia — aside from the portion of north Vietnam annexed by China — began with the importing, by local rulers, of modified cults of Buddhism or Hinduism, and the attendant adoption of Sanskrit or Pali language for the writing of religious texts. Later, in the seventh century, a broader range of texts began to appear on permanent materials, written in indigenous languages.

The Singapore Stone, discovered in 1819, was blown up in 1843 and remains an enigma today. Several studies have suggested the script to be Kawi, a Brahmic script used between the 8th and 16th centuries in Java and other parts of Southeast Asia. The language remains unknown but is thought to be Old Javanese, Sanskrit, or Tamil. There is great historical value in finding out what the script says, and it is the aim of this project to offer deeper insight into this undeciphered inscription.

Royal endowments to Brahmanas have been interpreted either as a factor of political integration or disintegration in Indian history. Through the first thorough presentation and analysis of the epigraphic data from Orissa, this study argues that the period 300-1147 C.E. was one of intensive state formation and political development in which royal grants played an important integrative role. During this period, Brahmanas, many of whom were ritual specialists associated with the Yajur Veda, emerged as land-holders endowed by royal decree with privileged control over land.

Abstract:
Abstract In early Indian inscriptions the Prakrit, or, more precisely, the Middle Indo-Aryan (MIA) languages predominated. Indeed, from about the third to the first century B.c. these were the only languages in epigraphic use, and they continued to predominate for at least two centuries more, and longer in some regions. It was only in the early centuries of the Christian era that the “mixed dialect,” or “Epigraphical Hybrid Sanskrit” (EHS), and Sanskrit began to appear, and for several centuries all three-MIA, EHS, and Sanskrit-were in use simultaneously. But the latter two gradually gained the upper hand over the Prakrits, and then Sanskrit gradually superseded both Prakrit and EHS (see 3.3.1-3.3.7). Thus the Prakrits practically ceased to be epigraphic languages by the early fourth century A.D. in northern India, and about a century later in the south.

Abstract:
Neo-Latin (post-Renaissance Latin) has played a significant role in scholarly fields in Japan such as medicine, botany, zoology, and astronomy. The first speakers of Latin arrived with the Jesuit missionary Francis Xavier in 1549. Classical Latin is studied in universities, theological seminaries, and academic societies. Church Latin is found in Catholic liturgy and secular music. A macaronic form of crypto-Latin was used in the recitation of Medieval Latin prayers—orasho—by underground Christian communities in Kyushu whereby Latin mediated memory, sacred space, and solidarity. Sanskrit is a symbol of Japan’s earliest transcultural ties with Asia. Priests in Nara communicated in Japanese and Sanskrit with Indian scholar-monks in 750. The copying of mantra and reading of sutras in the Siddhaṃ script is variously practised in the esoteric schools of Shingon Buddhism and Tendai. In the religious landscape, Siddhaṃ, a devotional script, is displayed in Buddhist temple inscriptions.

Chapter 3 argues that the conception of the self (ātman) that Sanskrit logicians attribute to humans corresponds to how they give emotional meaning to place. First, it examines their argument—that emotions are particular to humans and do not occur in divine beings—in relation to arguments in Bengali Vaishnavism, where emotion is understood to be that which allows one to connect to the divine. Second, it examines a number of temple inscriptions that illustrate how emotions are used by those who participate in Bengali Vaishnavism. Then, it contrasts these inscriptions with colophons from the texts of Sanskrit logicians that exhibit a different emotion connected to logic. The chapter offers a comparative study that showcases competing notions of space in seventeenth-century Bengal.

Abstract:
Stephanie Jamison suggests in her chapter of this volume that the Brahmanical authors of the Dharmasūtras borrowed the term gṛhastha from the śramaṇic discourse of the time. Aside from Aśoka’s inscriptions, this śramaṇic discourse may also be reflected in the earliest layer of the Buddhist Pāli canon. This chapter takes a closer look at these texts and its vocabulary for householders. A lexical survey shows that of the three most commonly used terms, gahaṭṭha (Sanskrit gṛhastha) is the least popular one. The other two, gahapati (Sanskrit gṛhapati) and gihin (Sanskrit. gṛhin) are much more common and also more clearly distinguished in their usage, with positive and negative connotations, respectively. The chapter suggests that precisely the fact that it was the least specific and most flexible term may have made gahaṭṭha/gṛhastha attractive for Brahmanical appropriation.
