Book excerpt: This volume is the outcome of the international seminar on Bhartrhari: Thought, Language and Reality held in New Delhi on 12-14 December 2003 as part of the centenary celebrations of Motilal Banarasidass. In this seminar, scholars from all over the world presented their interpretations of Bhartrhariês philosophy, some of the light of the modern trends in philosophy and linguistics, others in the backdrop of Indian tradition. This volume contains almost all the papers presented at the seminar along with some other papers invited from scholars who could not participate in the seminar to make it comprehensive. The papers discuss the metaphysics of Bhartrhari and his ideas about questions concerned language and reality. Some of the papers compare Bhartrhari with Western Philosophers and linguists like Wittgenstein, Grice, Searle, Humboldt, Chomsky and Goldbert, thus showing his relevance to problems in contemporary philosophy and linguistics. It is clear that after the initial efforts in the fourth to sixth decades of the twentieth century, Bhartrhari studies have now gained a significant momentum.

Book Synopsis Bhartr̥hari, Philosopher and Grammarian by : Saroja Bhate
Download or read book Bhartr̥hari, Philosopher and Grammarian written by Saroja Bhate. This book was released on 1994. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bhartrhari lived in the tenth century c.e. Being both a grammarian and philosopher, his influence on subsequent grammatical and philosophical thought in India has been enormous in spite of this modern scholarship has not yet given him the attention he deserves no doubt because his extent writings are difficult and were not until recently, available in satisfactory editions. Interest among scholars for Bhartrhari is now, however, growing. This is the reason why an international conference on Bhartrhari was organized in January 1992 in Pune, under the joint auspices of the University of Poons and the University of Lausanne (Switzerland). The present volume contains some of the papers read at this conference as well as an up-to-date bibliography on Bhartrhari.

Book Synopsis Eng Bhartrhari (25) by : Sibajiban Bhattacharyya
Download or read book Eng Bhartrhari (25) written by Sibajiban Bhattacharyya. This book was released on 2009. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bhartrhari (450-500A.D.) Holds A Unique Position In The History Of Both Theory Of Grammar And General Agamic Philosophy. He Is The Best Exponent Of The ýSphotaý Theory And An Outstanding Writer On The Philosophy Of Language. The Most Important Thesis Of Bhartrhari Is About The Relationship Between The Word And Sentence. The Meaning Of The Word Is Not Arrived At By Putting Together The Meanings Of Each Word That Constitutes It; Not Does The Sentence As A Whole Have A Meaning Which Can Be Explained By The Real Meaning Of Words. Ludwig Wittgenstein Born In Vienna, (1889-1951) Is One Of The Most Influential Philosophers Of The 20Th Century; Is Best Known Mainly For His Two Treatises. The Tractatus (1922) And The Philosophical Investigations (1953). For Wittgenstein Also, The Meaningful Unit Is Not A Word But A Sentence. Though Bhartrhari Of The East And Wittgenstein Of The West Say That There Is A Public Component In The Meaning Of A Word, They Speak Differently About The Presence And The Role Of The Mental In The Meaningful Use Of A Word.

Book Synopsis Bhartṛhari and the Buddhists by : Radhika Herzberger
Download or read book Bhartṛhari and the Buddhists written by Radhika Herzberger. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Viikyapadiya of Bhartrhari and the Pramii1Jasamuccaya of Dignaga • are seminal texts in the history of ancient Indian philosophy. One text deals with grammar, the other with logic, both are the work of committed metaphysicians. Written within a span of less than a hundred years, between the fifth and the sixth centuries A.D., these texts have generally been treated separately, as representing independent schools of thought. This essay attempts to interpret these texts jointly, as a dialogue between a grammarian and a logician. This way of approaching these texts highlights unexpected facets of Bhartrhari's and Dignaga's theories of language and is intended to identify the individual achievements of each. Above all, this treatment is an exercise in writing the intellectual history of a period in time, rather than a history of a school of philosophy. The prevailing view of Bhartrhari holds that his linguistic techniques are not intrinsic to his metaphysics. The conclusions reached in the present essay are that Bhartrhari's metaphysics underlie his linguistic techniques and articulate their presuppositions. The prevailing view of Dignaga maintains that for him language deals with illusory entities and must falsify what is real. The conclusions reached in the present essay are that Dignaga's logical rules are designed to ensure that in using language one is not committed to a belief in fictional entities. My debt to modern scholarship in the field is considerable.
