Anantadas is the first "biographer" who, around 1600, wrote about
the most popular bhakti poets of the 15th and 16th centuries in
Northern India. This study of these manuscripts yields a broad
spectrum of the linguistic and morphological variants. It also
reveals the processes of oral and scribal transmission during this
time when sectarian interests appropriated certain poets and
changed their "biographies" accordingly. The main bulk of the book
consists of a critical edition of the manuscripts (in Hindi), with
an English translation of each of the "biographies", preceded by an
analytical introduction in which the main ideas of the biographies
are highlighted.
