Description:
This book provides an in-depth study of the Sharada script, an important historical script of Kashmir and northwestern India, tracing its evolution, significance, and eventual decline. The Sharada script was once widely used across Afghanistan, Gandhara, Jammu, Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh, and Delhi, playing a vital role in the documentation of Sanskrit texts, scientific works, mathematics, and erotics.
Key highlights of the book include:
- A detailed history of the Sharada script, its origins, usage, and geographical reach.
- The evolution of the script into Devashesha and Takari scripts.
- Epigraphic, literary, and manuscript studies based on original records.
- Illustrations, palaeographic tables, and charts providing visual references to the scripts.
- Photographs of inscriptions, manuscripts, and documents showcasing the written records.
- A discussion on the critical need for preserving and reviving these scripts among modern scholars.
This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and scholars of Indian epigraphy, linguistics, manuscript studies, and history. It serves as both a guide and a reference work, offering insights into some of the most significant yet endangered scripts of India.
