Abstract:
Composed in the twelfth century ce, the Epitome of the Law (Mitākṣarā) by Vijñāneśvara is a celebrated and influential compendium of Indian law and jurisprudence. In form a commentary on the versified Laws of Yājñavalkya, it presents sophisticated and multifaceted discussions of all the major topics dealing with Hindu religious and legal duties collectively called dharma. This chapter examines Vijñāneśvara’s approach to basic problems of legal philosophy such as the sources and types of law, legal interpretation and reasoning, legal and moral obligation, the role of the state, and legal pluralism. It concludes by considering the driving metaphor that underlies Vijñāneśvara’s legal philosophy: law is a ritual, both the act and the obligation.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the reception of Dāyabhāga-centred, Gauḍa jurisprudence and Navya-Nyāya theories of ownership in the Dharmaśāstra and Mīmāṃsā writings of the Bhaṭṭa family of Mahārāṣṭrian Deśastha brāhmaṇas who led the southern (Dākṣinātya) community of paṇḍitas in Vārāṇasī between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The Bhaṭṭas’ polemic against the Navadvīpan, Navya-Nyāya-inflected school of jurisprudence marks a watershed moment when the Mitākṣarā and its Mīmāṃsā-derived theory of ownership were incorporated into a broader, distinctively southern scale of Dharmaśāstra texts that framed the Mitākṣarā/Dāyabhāga divide as a debate between Mīmāṃsā and Navya-Nyāya theories of property. By the close of the seventeenth century, one could speak of two complex, comprehensive schools of Dharmaśāstric thought, inflected by Mīmāṃsā and Navya-Nyāya philosophy, centred around pedagogical networks in Vārāṇasī and Navadvīpa, taking paradigmatically divergent approaches to the problem of inheritance, and emanating from commentarial literature on the Mitākṣarā and Dāyabhāga respectively.

Abstract:
This chapter traces the development of the concept of ownership in Sanskrit hermeneutical (Mīṃāṃsā) and jurisprudential (Dharmaśāstra) texts from approximately the first millennium CE to approximately the fifteenth century CE. The chapter draws attention to two linked trends in Indian jurisprudential history: (1) the development of a philosophical concept of ownership that occurred in the Sanskrit hermeneutical tradition centuries before the earliest logicians (Naiyāyikas); and (2) the recalibration and redeployment of several arguments concerning this Mīmāṃsā-derived concept by medieval Dharmaśāstra commentators who self-consciously framed their approaches to the jurisprudence of inheritance as further refinements of Vijñāneśvara’s Ṛjumitākṣarā (eleventh to twelfth centuries CE). The core legal and philosophical ideas analyzed are ownership-by-birth (janmasvatva) and ownership as an extra-śāstric (laukika) phenomenon respectively.

Abstract:
This chapter examines two schools of Jurisprudence that emerged in eastern India between the fourteenth and the sixteenth centuries CE: that of Mithilā (Maithila/Miśra) and Bengal (Gauḍa). These schools of jurisprudence, in contrast to the school of thought that developed around Vijñāneśvara’s Ṛjumitākṣarā, were neither strictly academic nor pan-Indian. Rather, they were deeply regional (in interest, influence, and self-identification), isolated almost completely from Vijñāneśvara’s Mitākṣarā and its Mīmāṃsā-derived theories of ownership, highly competitive (particularly in Bengal), and influenced by Navya-Nyāya philosophical debates about ownership. The core legal and philosophical ideas analysed are ownership-by-the-death-of-the-previous-owner (uparamasvatva) and ownership as a śāstric (śāstraikasamadhigamya) phenomenon respectively.
