"For a millennium and a half, Kalidasa's works -- from The Cloud Messenger to The Recognition of Shakuntala -- have delighted audiences in India and beyond. Although the renowned poet and dramatist inspired many literary works over the centuries, little is known about his life. He likely lived in central India in the late fourth or early fifth century. Kalidasa's The Lineage of the Raghus, or Raghuvaṃśa, belongs to the Sanskrit literary tradition of mahākāvya, or court poem. It recounts the lives of ancient kings in the Sūryavaṃśa, the Solar Dynasty, who ruled from the capital city of Ayodhya. The poem describes the quest for offspring by Dilipa, a descendant of the primordial king Manu; the world conquest of his son Raghu, which offers a panorama of the Indian subcontinent; the exploits of the famous Rama, an incarnation of Vishnu; and the debaucheries of Agnivarna, which jeopardize the future of the lineage. This volume presents a new edition of the Sanskrit text in the Devanagari script alongside a fresh English translation of this enduring epic."--

For more than a millennium, Kālidāsa’s poem “Lineage of the Raghus” ( Raghuvaṃśa ) has been acknowledged as one of the masterpieces of Sanskrit literature. Thousands of manuscripts transmit it, and dozens of pre-modern commentaries expound the text. This is the second volume (out of three) of the earliest surviving commentary, that of the tenth-century Kashmirian Vallabhadeva. The text that he had before him of Kālidāsa’s poems differs in many places from that printed in other editions, which generally follow the readings of the commentator Mallinātha, who wrote four centuries later. Notes discuss the text and report the readings of three other hitherto unpublished commentaries that predate Mallinātha, namely those of Śrīnātha, Vaidyaśrīgarbha and Dakṣiṇāvartanātha.

Les éditions critiques et traductions de sources primaires jusqu'ici inédites qui constituent les principaux résultats de notre stimulant projet « Early Tantra » sur le tantrisme ancien ont commencé à paraître dans la présente collection. Avec cette sous-collection, lancée en 2015 au sein de la « Collection Indologie », nous publions les résultats d'un projet franco-allemand financé de 2008 jusqu'en 2011 par l'Agence Nationale pour la Recherche et la Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Le nom de la sous-collection reflète le titre de ce projet : « Early Tantra: Discovering the interrelationships and common ritual syntax of the Śaiva, Buddhist, Vaiṣṇava and Saura traditions ». Notre but était d'étudier les relations entre les traditions tantriques à travers des sources fondamentales, que nous éditons pour la première fois. Les trois premiers volumes sont parus au cours de l'été 2015.Ce volume vient les compléter en rassemblant les fruits, directs et indirects, des intenses discussions qui animèrent les ateliers du projet. En introduction est proposée une synthèse de nos découvertes concernant la « syntaxe rituelle commune » des plus anciens ouvrages connus des traditions tantriques, en particulier le Mañjuśriyamūlakalpa, du côté bouddhique, et la Niśvāsatattvasaṃhitā, du côté du shivaïsme. Sept autres contributions, par Dominic Goodall, Peter Bisschop, Judit Törzsök, Diwakar Acharya, Anna A. Ślączka, Libbie Mills et Péter-Dániel Szántó, apportent des lumières sur des sujets variés : les tattvas shivaïtes et leur évolution, les temples aux yoginīs, les divinités-alphabets, un traité ancien de magie liée aux serpents, les enseignements iconographiques des pratiṣṭhātantras anciens, les implications de l'emploi du système de la bhūtasaṅkhyā et un fragment de sādhana tantrique bouddhique.
