काव्यमीमांसा (महाकवि राजशेखर - कवि-रहस्य एवं देश-विभाग सटीक)

FIFTH ADHYĀYA 155 l. 7. Bāṇa has expressed a similar sentiment in the following verse :— सन्ति श्वान इवासङ्ख्या जातिभाजो गृहे गृहे । उत्पादका न बहवः कवयः शरभा इव ॥ Harṣacarita 1-6. *[ l. 10. सर्वाभिनयनिर्णीतौ दृष्टा नाट्यसृजा न याः । नाट्यसृजा । ब्रह्मणा । नाट्याख्यं पञ्चमं वेदं सेतिहासं करोम्यहम् । ( नाट्यशास्त्र. 1-15 ) ]. l. 10.

It has already been said that the two qualities of प्रतिभा and व्युत्पत्ति, essential for poetical excellence, arise from the S'akti or the power of imagination with which only a few are blessed. प्रतिभा has been discussed in this chapter while व्युत्पत्ति will follow in the next. Adhyāya V. Page. 16. ll. 2–5. बहुज्ञता । Ācāryas define व्युत्पत्ति as बहुज्ञता. Here the word बहु or ‘many’ represents the subjects such as लोकविद्याप्रकीर्णक etc., a knowledge of which is imperative on a poet who makes an attempt at writing poetry. A list of these subjects, probably for
