c. Works on Inscriptional Prakrit
Historical Grammar of Inscriptional Prakrits by M.A.Mahendrele presents the entire insciptional materials dating from the middle of the 3rd cent. B.C.E. to the end of 4th cent. CE in such a convenient manner that the relevant forms on any particular point can be picked out in a moment. The author has more over tried to locate, both in time and space, the exact spot where each of the various speech tendencies involved had its origin, and to indicate the directions in which those tendencies spread. For this purpose, he divided inscriptions into four regional groups: Western, Southern, Central, and Eastern leaving out Asoka's imperial edicts issued from Patalipitra which he dealt with separately in his first chapter.
