Thakura Datta Sharma, the editor of the works, has
given an alphabetical list of all the Nyāyas at the beginning.
He has tried to find out a common link in the body of the
works, wherever possible, to cluster the Nyayas together.
The book, printed in 1908, is the oldest printed collection of
the Nyayas. The writer has exhaustively quoted from the
Sanskrit literature including the Sūtras of Pāṇinī. He has
cited lines containing some popular beliefs at some places
e.g. कार्यात् कारणजन्मेतिन्याय:- in which the lines-
लता हि शैले- सरसि भवम् सरोजम्- पुष्पाणां प्रभवो वै ।
are quoted, though the original works in which their
occurances are not traceable. Thus with a fine exegetical
skill, Thakura Datta Sharma has enriched the selection.
Explanations of certain Nyāyas occurs in certain
commentorial works but they are only incidental and cannot
be designated as Nyāyakośas.
Nyāyakośa work which is now available is- fchifa
A handful of popular maxims are published in three parts
during the period 1900-1904. Jacob has explained in these
tracts the maxims, quoting lines from the classical as well as
from the Śāstric works. He has prepared an enlarged version
during 1907-1911, in which the total number of Nyāyas was
484. I have considered this collection of the maxims as the
most dependable one.
The next available work on the Nyāyas is the "Nyāyokti-
kośa"-published by Chavinath Mishra in 1978. They have
been discussed in Sanskrit only.
Prof. Dr. R. Srihari, Retired Vice-Chancellor, Dravidian
