Sanskrit Debate: Vasubandhu's "Vīmśatikā" versus Kumārila's "Nirālambanavāda"

By: Allen, William Cully

Vīmśatikā ranks among the world's most misunderstood texts but Kumārila's historic refutation allows Vīmśatikā to be read in its own text-historical context. This compelling, radically revolutionary re-reading of Vīmśatikā delineates a hermeneutic of humor indispensable to discerning its medicinal message.
