Navya-Nyaya Philosophy of Language

400
This book represents the philosophy of language in Navya-Nyaya, based upon an analysis of the ''Verbal Suffix Chapter'' of Gangesa's Tattvacintamani. Since this chapter elaborates what kind of verbal understanding is generated and discusses related issues, the book demonstrates the main features of that philosophy of language and serves as a good introduction to that.  The analysis mainly deals with Gangesa, but in some cases it referes to Raghunatha. Since the book is an attempt to pursue philological exactness and philosophical analysis, it is hoped to interest not only Sanskrit scholars, but also philosophers in general.
