Hindu Law and Custom (Recht und Sitte) c7.322

c7.322

Almost all the works mentioned hitherto contain more or less numerous references to older commentaries on the Smṛtis commented upon by themselves. Moreover, commentaries on other Smṛtis, e. g., Hārita, Vyāsa, Caturviṃśatimata, are mentioned in the manuscript catalogues or are quoted in mediaeval and modern law-books. For some of the commentaries on later works see § 12. The commentaries have as yet by no means ceased to be composed, as, e. g., the valuable commentary on Vas. was composed by Kṛṣṇapaṇḍita only in the seventies of this (nineteenth) century.
