R. Ramachandra Dikshitar. Mr. Dikshitar’s works have attracted the notice of scholars, both in the East and the West, and some of his classics like the \*Silappadikaram\*, have justly won for him wide appreciation. In bringing out this monumental work on \*War in Ancient India\*, at this particular juncture, Mr. Dikshitar has placed historians, more particularly Indian historians, under a deep debt of gratitude. - [Previous: c1.11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c1.11) - [Next: c2.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c2.2) - [Up: c2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c2) ## Linked texts (1) - [Cilappatikāram](https://indike.org/pramana/in.sangam.five_great_epics.cilappatikaram) — Iḷaṅkō Aṭikaḷ, Tamil --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c2.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.dikshitar-1944.c2.1) · Pramāṇa
