The Anukramanis ((サンスクリット:अनुक्रमणी), ) (also ') are the systematic indices of Vedic hymns〔Max Müller, F. (1860) ''A History of Ancient Sanskrit Literature So Far As It Illustrates the Primitive Religion of the Brahmans'', London:Williams and Norgate, pp.215-29〕 recording poetic meter, content, and traditions of authorship. ==Anukramanis of the Rigveda== Six Anukramanis of the Rigveda are ascribed to Shaunaka: ''Anuvakanukramani'', ''Arshanukramani'', ''Chandonukramani'', ''Devatanukramani'', ''Padanukramani'' and ''Suktanukramani''. Except the ''Anuvakakramani'', other Anukramanis survive only in quotations found in the writings of Shadgurashishya. The most important Anukramani of the Rigveda is Katyayana's ''Sarvanukramani'' (ca. 2nd century BCE), recording the first word, the number of verses, name and family of poets (rshis), names of deities and metres for each of the 1,028 hymns of the Rigveda. The ''Vedarthadipika'', written by Shadgurushishya (12th century) is a significant commentary of this work. Mayrhofer (2003) discusses the personal names contained in the Rigveda Anukramani, counting 543 items. Academic opinion regarding the age and authenticity of the tradition of these names is not unanimous. Mayrhofer suggests that Hermann Oldenberg (1888) was essentially correct in assuming that :"the editors of the lists of authors () () a correct notion of the families associated with these Mandalas (Rigvedic "family books" 2–7 ), ''possibly'' rooted in tradition. Beyond this, they do not betray as much as the slightest sign of any genuine tradition on the hymn authors." (p. 229) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anukramaṇī」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
