Buddhist Sanskrit Philosophical Text Input
Project Representative(s): Shoryu Katsura, Hiroshima University, Japan
The input has been done on an unplanned basis as the by-product of the research project (Sanskrit materials) of individual scholars. Some of the more extensive collections include the works of Jñaana`srimitra, Ratnakirti, Dharmakirti, the Bauddha-nyaaya-ko`sa Raj, as well as the Sanskrit research materials of Dr. Ono. Now, in turning this into a formal, systematic input project, Dr. Katsura would like to start with the works of Dignaaga. He is also, concomitant with this input work, interested in creating a digital dictionary of Sanskrit Buddhist terms, especially with a view towards gathering terms which have not yet appeared in lexicons. The eventual goal would be the publication of this material as a CD-ROM.
