Summary

This section offers an annotated list of articles and papers appearing in various Orientalist journals and bulletins. Entries from the 'Annals of the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute' include studies on Vedic grammar, Jaina canonical texts and socio‑linguistic analyses of Apabhraṃśa. Summaries from the 'Journal of Indian History' highlight essays on the rise of the Peshwas, translations of Maṇimekalai and examinations of Persian influence in South India. The list also notes contributions from the 'Review of Philosophy and Religion', where authors discuss the nature of realism in Indian philosophy and the chronology of pre‑Mauryan Sanskrit texts. Further items from international journals cover topics as diverse as the origin of the caste system in India, ancient Sinhalese inscriptions, the age of Pāṇini, and Chinese Buddhist translations. Each entry provides a brief description of the article’s focus and its broader significance, allowing readers to keep abreast of developments in Indology, philology, archaeology and religious studies without consulting each publication individually.
