186 Hemacandra's Abhidhānacintāmaṇi (ed. 1964; 2.170) and Rājaśekhara's Kāvyamīmāṃsā (2.7) define a vārttika: uktānuktaduruktacintākārī vārttikam, i.e., a vārttika examines what has been expounded, what has not been expounded and what has been expounded imperfectly (see N.V.P. Unithiri, 1980–81: 576). See on vārttika also: M. Mishra (1996): 29–40. The most famous vārttikas are those of Kātyāyana (on Pāṇini's Aṣṭādhyāyī) and Kumārila (on the Śabarabhāṣya).
