It is well known that the Upani?ads were initially composed and transmitted within specific schools of Vedic recitation, or ??kh?s, but the ??kh? affiliation of each Upani?ad has received very little attention in the scholarly literature. The author offers a new interpretation of the older Upani?ads in the light of the Vedic school affiliations of each text. This book argues that issues of textual authority, and in particular the authority of the various Vedic schools, are central in the Upani?ads, and that the Upani?ads can, on one level, be read as texts about text. While analyzing the theme of textual authority in the Upani?ads, the author also outlines a theory of textual criticism as applied to orally transmitted texts that will be of use to textual scholars in other fields as well. 410 0$aBrill's Indological library ;$vv. 30. 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a294.5/9218 700 $aCohen$b Signe$0956760 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458924003321 996 $aText and authority in the older Upanis?ads$92166998 997 $aUNINA
