Book excerpt: This edition of the Sanskrit text of the Subhāṣitaratnakoṣa--in the editors' opinion the oldest known general anthology of Sanskrit verse--is the result of years of work deciphering and comparing the five different versions. The editors' aim has been to restore, as far as the sources permit, the text compiled by Vidyākara between A.D. 1100 and 1130.
