Title: | Bhāgavatapurāṇa |
Note: |
The manuscript contains the complete text of the Bhāgavatapurāṇa with Śrīdharasvāmin's commentary Bhāgavatabhāvārthadīpikā except for one missing folio in the second half of the tenthskandha. The text of the missing folio comprises the end of adhyāya 82, corresponding with BhP. 10.82.35–10.82.48, along with Śrīdharasvāmin's commentary on the same, corresponding with Kṛṣṇaśaṅkara Śāstrin 1965 vol. 10, part 6, pp. 587–608, ad 10.82.35–10.82.48. The fact that the first and last folios of skandha 10 are as worn as the first and last folios of the whole manuscript and that it received extra commentatorial additions suggest that the tenth skandha existed for some time as a separate text. |

Form: | Folia |
Material: | Paper |
Extent: | 999 folia |
Dimension: | 16.5 x 33.3 cm (h x w) |
Foliation: | p Numbered in the upper left and lower right margins on the verso of each folio by the original hand, except the last folio in each sequence which is numbered on the recto. Each skandha is numbered separately as are the pūrvārdha and uttarārdha of the tenth skandha, herein refered to as Xa and Xb. The recto of the first and verso of the last folio of each skandha is blank except for the borders and an occasional colophon (e.g. f. VIII:53v). p On f. II:12v the numeral 13 is erroneously written in the lower right margin. On f. Xb:23–f. Xb:25 the numerals 24–26 are corrected by the same hand to 23–25 in upper left as well as in the lower right margins. On f. Xb:26v, 27 is corrected to 26 in the upper left margin. The manuscript originally numbered 1,000 folia altogether, but one (Xb:79 containing BhP. 10.82.35–10.82.48) is missing. [Image 0816 contains f. Xb:78v, f. Xb:80r.] p Levitt mistakingly notes that skandha 10 part 1 has 185 folios; it has 145. |
Formula: | I: 1–70; II: 1–40; III: 1–108; IV: 1–91; V: 1–69; VI: 1–54; VII: 1–55; VIII: 1–53; IX: 1–52; Xa: 1–145; Xb: 1–78, 80–116; XI: 1–110; XII: 1–37 |
Signatures: | The first syllable of Bhāgavata followed by the first syllable of the ordinal number of the skandha and a digit indicating the adhyāya is written above the folio number on the verso of each folio, except the last of each sequence where the signature and number appear on the recto. For example, bhā0 pra0 followed by the chapter number is written above the folio number in the upper left margin in the first skandha. In the tenth skandha, pū0 for pūrvārdha or u0 for uttarārdhais written after bhā0 da0. kṛṣṇa is written above the folio number in the lower right margin. |
Collation: | Single folia |
Condition: |
Very good. Some folios are damaged by insects (e.g. f. I:31–40). Three folios (f. I:1, f. Xb:116, and f. XII:37) are worn, and f. Xa:1 is reinforced. Red paint is spilled on f. I:63v. White paint is spilled in the left margin on f. Xb:115v–f. Xb:116r. |
Binding: | Unbound |
Seal: | A circular stamp on the right of f. I:1r and f. XII:37v reads Library University Pennsylvania. |
Layout: | Written in 10–18 lines per page in an hourglass arrangement with commentary above and below the base text; f. VI: 54r and f. Xa:105v both have 18 lines. The base text and commentary are frequently continued up the right margin. |
Hand 1: | Written in clear, bold, regular characters, tilted forward, in slightly wavy lines. |
Additions: |
There are marginal and interlinear corrections and additions, some lengthy in a different hand, e.g. f. II:10r, f. II:10v, f. II:15r, f. II:28v, etc., f. III:91v, f. VIII:35v, f. VIII:36r, f. VIII:37v, f. VIII:40v, f. Xb:27v, f. Xb:93v–f. Xb:94v (containing the end of 10.86 and beginning of 10.87), and f. Xb:103r–f. Xb:103v. Mistakes are covered over with yellow (e.g. f. I:26v, f. I:27r, f. II:20v, f. XII:8v). Red text is inserted or imprinted accidentally on the right bottom corner of folio Xa:15r. A dried flower pressed into the middle of folio Xa:19v obscures some text. |
Color: | Invocations, final rubrics, introduction of speakers, and double daṇḍas are written in red. Yellow is used to cover mistakes. |
Border: | Two sets of vertical double red lines filled with a yellow band rule the left and right margins of each page, including the front and back of each skandha which have not text on them. The same border frames an empty central panel on the verso of the first and recto of the last folio of each skandha; the panels were perhaps intended for illustrations, or for dedications such as the one found in UPenn 2622. The central panel border is missing its yellow band on f. III:108r, f. IV:1v, f. XI:110r. |
Origin: |
The manuscript was written over a period of a year and a half between the month of caitra in the year 1886 of the saṁvat era and the month of āśvina in the year 1887 of the saṁvat era, which corresponds with April 1829–October 1830 A.D.. The colophon verses at the end of the base text of the first and second halves of the tenth skandha, and at the end of the commentary on skandhas one, and twelve identify the scribe of the manuscript as one by the name Harabhaṭṭa. The colophon at the end of the commentary on skandha five tells additionally that his family name was Jośī, that he wrote in Kāśī (Vārānasī), and in the next sentence that the manuscript belonged to Kṛṣṇabhaṭakārīka. According to dates of completion provided in the colophons at the end of the commentary on each skandha, as well as at the end the first and second halves of the base text of skandha ten, the text was written in the following order: 5, 10, 11, 12, 6, 7, 8, 4, 9, 1, 2, 3. The colophon of the fifth skandha dates its completion to the third tithi in dark fortnight in the month of caitra in the year 1886 of the saṁvat era, which corresponds with 21 June 1829. The colophon of the base text of the first half of the tenth skandha dates its completion to the twelfth tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of bhādrapada, which corresponds with 10 September 1829. The colophons of the base text and commentary of the second half of the tenth skandha agree in dating its completion to the fifth tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of mārgaśīrṣa, which corresponds with 1 December 1829. The colophon of the commentary of the eleventh skandha dates its completion to the seventh tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of pauṣa, which corresponds with 1 January 1830. The colophon of the commentary of the twelfth skandha dates its completion to the eleventh tithi in the dark fortnight in the month of māgha, which corresponds with 19 February 1830; of the sixth skandha to the thirteenth tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of caitra, which corresponds with 6 April 1830; of the seventh skandha to the ninth tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of vaiśākha, which corresponds with 1 May 1830; of the eighth skandha to the second tithi in the bright fortnight in the month of jaiṣṭha, which corresponds with 24 May 1830; of the fourth skandha to the third tithi in the dark fortnight in the month of āṣāḍha, which corresponds with 8 July 1830; of the ninth skandha to the tenth tithi in the dark fortnight in the month of śrāvaṇa, which corresponds with 14 August 1830; of the first skandha to the new moon, that is, the fifteenth tithi in the dark fortnight, in the month of bhādrapada, which corresponds with 17 September 1830; of the second skandha to the second tithi in the dark fortnight in the month of āśvina, which corresponds with 4 October 1830; and finally the colophon of the commentary of the third skandha dates the completion of the entire work to the fifth tithi in the dark fortnight in the month of āṣāḍha, which corresponds with 7 October 1830. |
Acquisition: |
David Nelson (2000: 203) describes the acquisition of the Sanskrit manuscripts in the University of Pennsylvania Library as follows:
The University of Pennsylvania Library possesses a collection of almost 3,300 Indic manuscripts, the largest such collection in the Western hemisphere. While the vast majority of these manuscripts are from India, there are also a number of manuscripts from Burma, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Tibet. Some of the manuscripts had been acquired in chance fashion by the Library and the University Museum before 1930, but in that year, at the request of Professor W. Norman Brown (1892–1975), Provost Josiah Penniman provided a sum of money to purchase Indic manuscripts. Shortly thereafter he obtained a donation from the late Mr. John Gribbel. Substantial contributions from Dr. Charles W. Burr, the Faculty Research Fund, and the Cotton Fund soon followed. The bulk of the manuscripts are the result of purchases made using these funds in India, between 1930 and 1935, under the direction of Professor W. Norman Brown. |
