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

EIGHTH ADHYĀYA 177
Most of this chapter is quoted in Hemacandra's Kāvyânuśā-
sana-viveka and Vāgbhaṭa's Kāvyānuśāsana. Not quite of this but
of a similar type, are the various Paricayas in the fifth Sandhi of
the Kavikaṇṭhābharaṇa. Vinayacandra in his काव्यशिक्षा mentions
तर्कपरिचय, व्याकरणपरिचय, चाणक्यपरिचय, धनुर्वेदीय (the quotation is the same
as one in the Kāvyamīmāṁsā, स दक्षिणापाङ्ग०) उत्पाद्यसंयोग (quotation is
the same as in the Kāvyamīmāṁsā, उभौ यदि व्योम्नि). भारतपरिचय, रामायण-
परिचय, मोक्षोपायपरिचय, आत्मज्ञानपरिचय, धातुवादपरिचय, पुरुषलक्षणपरिचय, द्यूतपरिचय,
चित्रपरिचय, वृक्षपरिचय, वनेचरपरिचय, भक्तिपरिचय, विवेकपरिचय, प्रशमपरिचय, हस्तिपरिचय,
वैद्यकपरिचय, शास्त्रपरिचय, धनुर्वेदपरिचय, गजलक्षणपरिचय, तुरगलक्षणपरिचय.]
ll. 1-5. काव्यार्थयोनयः ।
The sources of the theme of poetry are detailed in this chapter
according to the classification scheme given by the author in the
first chapter. The faculty of discovering an appropriate theme
for poetry after examining these sources is called Vyutpatti, and
this has already been dealt with in the fifth chapter. The early
writers on poetics mentioned these sources as काव्याङ्ग or limbs of
poetry, and they advise the poets to be sufficiently conversant
with them. But this list of 12 or 16 sources adopted by Rājaśe-
khara is not found in any of the earlier works. Among the lists
given in the early treatises, the list of Vāmana seems to be fairly
exhaustive and to the point (see 1, 3, 1-20). Rudraṭa's list is
almost similar to that of Bhāmaha (1-9) and is given below :-
छन्दोव्याकरणकलालोकस्थितिपदपदार्थविज्ञानात् ।
युक्तायुक्तविवेको व्युत्पत्तिरियं समासेन ॥
(K. A. 1-18.)
Rudraṭa holds that there is nothing in the world of words or
things which cannot be made use of in poetry, and, therefore,
the poet must be conversant with all varieties of subjects.
Rudraṭa says:-
विस्तरतस्तु किमन्यत्तत इह वाच्यं न वाचकं लोके ।
न भवति यत्काव्याङ्गं सर्वज्ञत्वं ततोऽन्यैषा ॥
(K. A. 1-19.)
On this point compare Bhāmaha :-
न स शब्दो न तद्वाच्यं न स न्यायो न सा कला ।
जायते यन्न काव्याङ्गमहो भारो महान् कवेः ॥
(K. A. 5-4.)
