[Y-Indology] KSTS edition tantrasAra

[Guest guest]

1) I am editing the TS with 2 new old MSS (one in Sarada) and a portion

of it.

 

2) Gnoli has corrected the text I think basing on philological measures

of iudicium and selectio. Perhaps his teacher Giuseppe Tucci wrote some

notes on margins of the text and gave him, since Tucci had read the TS

together with the pandit Hem Raj Sharma, Nayab Bara Gurujuy in Nepal

until 1953. Sincerely, I don't know it for sure, it's just my

hypothesis.
