² W. Heymann was the first scholar to throw light on the Bhāratīya-Nāṭyāśāstra on the basis of south Indian manuscripts in NGGW 1874, 86ff. P. Regnaud published a number of chapters: Adhyāya 6-74 in the La Rhétorique Sanskrite, Paris 1884, adhy. 15-17 in the Annales du Musée Guimet, part I and part II. The adhy. 20-22 and 34 (=18—20 and 34 of the Km. ed.) are published by F.E. Hall in the Annexture to his edition ot Daśarūpa. The adhy. 28 (on music) has been published by J. Grosset, Contribution à l'étude de la musique hindoue, Paris 1888. A critical edition of the adhy. 1—14 by J. Grosset appeared in Paris 1898. The complete work is published in the Km. 42, 1894. F. Cimmin's L'uso delle didascalie nel dramma Indiano, Napoli 1912 was known to W. only through the review of Pavolini (GSAI 25, 1937, 321 f.).
