Abstract
The alleged lexical opposition between kṣemya, in the sense of “one who stays at home, householder”, and yāyāvara — denoting “one who constantly goes” according to Aṣṭādhyāyī 3.2.176, but “the vagrant mendicant” e.g. in BDhS 2.7.12.1 — is discussed on the basis of the intertextual comparison between three parallel black Yajurveda versions of the same passage. The MS version (3.2.2) is assumed to have intentionally transformed the itinerant but plausibly autonomous figure of the yāyāvara into one who depends on feeble or munificent householdersFile in questo prodotto:
