________________ SkNGARARNAVACANDRIKA (ALAMKARASAMGRAHA) OF VIJAYAVARNI 291 which the Dosas cease to be so. His treatment of Kavya-dosas clearly reveals his considerable indebtedness to Mammata63 who treats of the Dosas in his Kavyaprakasa (Ullasa VII). Mammata has utilised earlier writers on this topic and added new Dosas which he himself has discovered. Vijayavarni follows Mammata's classification of Dosas in toto. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT In conclusion, I acknowledge my deep indebtedness to Dr. A. N. Upadhye, M. A., D. Litt., Dean, Faculty of Arts, Shivaji University Kolhapur, at whose suggestion this work of editing SC from a single manuscript was entrusted to me. It is he who gave me the MS and requested me to edit this work. He has all along been taking kindly interest in the progress of my work and its publication. I can never adequately express in words what I owe to Pandit Balacharya Khuperkar Shastri who has taken keen interest in this work and made valuable suggestions for emending the text as correctly as possible. It was, indeed, my proud privilege to spend hours together with him discussing matters relating to Sanskrit poetics in general and the text in particular. I offer my warmest thanks to my friend Professor G. S. Bedagkar, who kindly went through the Introduction and made valuable suggestions to improve it. However, for whatever imperfections still left in the work, I am entirely responsible. The Author acknowledges his indebtedness to the Shivaji University, Kolhapur, for the grant-in-aid received by him from the University towards the cost of Publication of this book.
