This book was written as a doctoral thesis. It was submitted to and
accepted by the University of Poona in 1979. Several people
contributed to the creation of this book, in various ways. Prof. S.
D. Joshi, my supervisor, introduced me to the study of the Sanskrit
grammatical tradition. His unfailing skepticism towards and
disagreement with the ideas worked out in this book contributed
more to their development than he may have been aware. Prof. Paul
Kiparsky gave encouragement when this was badly needed. In the
years following 1979 Dr. Dominik Wujastyk was kind enough to read
the manuscript and suggest improvements in language and style. To
all of these lowe a debt of gratitude, but most of all lowe such a
debt to Pandit Shivarama Krishna Shastri. In the course of several
years he read with me many portions of Nagesa's grammatical and
other works, and much besides. His ability to understand difficult
grammatical and philosophical texts in Sanskrit was unequalled, and
without his help it would have taken far longer to write this book
and indeed might very well have proved impossible. Shivarama
Krishna Shastri never saw the result of our reading; he died before
this book could appear in print. I dedicate it to his memory. J.
