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

TWELFTH ADHYĀYA 219 ll. 9–12. The views of the Ācāryas and Vākpatirāja, as stated here, are found in the work Gauḍavaho of Vākpatirāja. Cf. कालगुणा पढमकईहिं भमिअमपरिग्गहेसु मग्गेसु । इहरा मईहिं हीरन्ति दुक्करं के वि काणंपि ॥ कत्तो णाम न इंट्ठं सच्चं कविसेविएसु मग्गेसु । सीमन्ते उण सुकब्बि तम्मि सव्वं नवं चेअ ॥ अत्यालोअणतरला इअरकईणं भमन्ति बुद्धीओ । अत्यञ्चेश्र निरारंभमेन्ति हिअअं कइन्दाणम् ॥ आसंसारं कहपुंगवेहिं तद्दिअहगहिअसारो वि । अज्ज वि अभिण्णमुद्दो व्व जअइ वाआपारप्फन्दो ॥ Gauḍavaho-84-87. Here, it may be noted that the last verse of Vākpatirāja आसंसारं etc. has been sanskritized by Rājaśekhara with a few changes and quoted under his name. ll. 13–16. The views of some thinkers regarding the necessity of a careful study of the early poetical works on the part of a poet, are to be linked with the view of the Ācāryas on the point, and not with that of Vākpatirāja above stated. ll. 17–24. Rājaśekhara disagrees with the views of the other thinkers on this subject. The explanation given by him is more or less based on the statement made by Vākpatirāja on the same subject in verses 88–92 of his Gauḍavaho. The views expressed by Vākpatirāja and quoted by Rājaśekhara are already mentioned by Ānandavardhana in his Dhvanyāloka. Cf. वाचस्पतिसहस्राणां सहस्रैरपि यत्नतः । निबद्धाऽपि क्षयं नैति प्रकृतिर्जगतामिव ॥ इयं काव्यस्थितिरनन्ताभिः कविमतिभिरुपभुक्ताऽपि नेदानीं परिहीयते । प्रत्युत नवनवाभिव्यु- त्पत्तिभिः परिवर्धते । and संवादास्तु भवन्त्येव बाहुल्येन सुमेधसाम् । स्थितं ह्येतत् । संवादिन्यो मेधाविनां बुद्धयः । नैकरूपतया सर्वे ते मन्तव्या विपश्चिता ॥ 4,10-11 The statement तदाहुः etc. quoted by Rājaśekhara is traceable in the work of Ānandavardhana with the same context:—
