In the section of Karaka Studies, the book discusses Bhartrihari's rule for unexpressed Karakas, a reconsideration of a rule of Astadhyayi, and other aspects of Karakas. In the part of Historical Studies in Grammatical Tradition, the study discusses grammatical thoughts of Candragomina and Jayaditya, some questions related to Candra-vyakarana, semantics in the history of South Asian thought, and Avestan grammatical tradition.
