Kuntaleśvara(Kunteśvara)dautya:

On this ascribed to him, see detailed examination of the question and different views on it and
the probable identity of the Kings Kuntaleśvara and Vikramāditya figuring in it, in Bhoja's
Śṛṅgāra Prakāśa (1963) by V. Raghavan 1963, pp. 776-784 and B. C. Law Vol. II. p. 191
ff.

Setubandha:

In Alwar 2471, 2472 and BORI. 55 of 1873-74, Setubandha is ascribed to K. For a tradition that K.
wrote this Pkt. poem for Pravarasena at the behest of Vikramāditya, see Rāmadāsa's C. on
Setubandha, MD. 15786 (Extr. p. 10413); for the view that this might refer to Candragupta II
Vikramāditya the Gupta Emperor and his grandson Vākāṭaka Pravarasena II, [Page066-b] see S.
Krishnaswami Ayyangar, ABORI. V. pp. 31-54 and J. Myth. Soc. XV. pp. 160-2; V. Raghavan,
Bhoja's Śṛṅgāra Prakāśa (1963) pp. 782-3. Bhau Daji accepted K.'s authorship of Setuº.

On the tradition identifying him with Īśvarakṛṣṇa, a. of Sāṁkhyakārikās, see ref.s
given above, and also K., Īśvarakṛṣṇa below.

For a ms. of the S. kārikās mentioning K. as a., see Mad. Uni. R. K. S. 455 (c).

See also Mysore I. p. 608 and TD. 5019 for a lex. Prayuktapadamañjarī as by Īśvarakṛṣṇa
Kālidāsa.

See also NCC. II. p. 274a.

The following four poems have long been mistaken as K.'s:

--Ghaṭakarparakāvya. short poem in 22 rhyming verses, on a theme similar to that of
Meghadūta.

Abhinavagupta in his Locana and in his Gh. k. kulakavṛtti and probably Ānandavardhana too
(Dhva. Ā. II. 17/18) believed this to be a work of K. See V. Raghavan Dr. Mirashi Felicitation
Vol. 1965. pp. 147-9.

--Nalodaya. rhymed poem. From mss. Ravideva (see GD. 1798, Peters. VI, p. 88 (no. 336)) to whom
Rākṣasakāvya is also ascribed, a Ravisūnu (see GD. 1775B), and Vāsudeva of Kerala (see GD.
1795) who wrote Yamakakāvyas are found as a.s.

On its. authorship, see Pischel, ZDMG. 56. p. 626; A. S. Ramanatha Ayyar, JRAS. 1925, pp.
263-75; J. Myth. Soc. XIV. pp. 302-11; XVI. pp. 134 ff.

Ptd. several times. [Page067-a]

--Rākṣasakāvya. Mss. mention K., Vararuci and Ravideva of Malayadeśa as a. (IHQ. XIII. p.
173).

The ‘Buddhivinodakāvya’ ed. wrongly as an. (and with a C. by Kālidāsa) in IHQ. XII (1936)
pp. 692-700 is same as the Rākṣasakāvya. See also IHQ. XIII. pp. 172-176.

--Śṛṅgāratilaka.

Ptd. at end of N. S. Press edn. of Ṛtusāṁhāra, Bombay, 1922.

Some unknown Kālidāsas are found as a.s of the following other poems and plays; these are not
verifiable and some of them may be mere idle ascriptions and mistakes of scribes and Catalogues:

--Kaṛṇāṭavarṇana in 16 verses. on K's victory over Balvana, court poet of a Karnata king;
most verses common with Mahāpadya (ºaṣṭaka) ascribed to K.

See NCC. III. p. 185b.

Ptd. See NCC. III. p. 266.

--Kāvyanāṭakālaṁkārāh2 (?) B. III. 46.

--Cātakāṣṭaka.

same as the one printed as Pūrvacātakāṣṭaka, an. J. Vidyasagar's Kāvyasaṅgraha I. pp.
327-330. 1888.

verses with C.). K. 60.

Ptd. in Kāvyakalāpa i. Bombay, 1864, pp. 136-7. [Page067-b]

--Puṣpabāṇavilāsa.

Ptd. N. S. Press, Bombay, 1901. According to the edn. with a Marathi verse-transl. by
Balavantrav Kamalākar, Poona, 1881, the a. is Kālidāsa Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya.

See Br. Mus. Ptd. Bks. 1876-92. 169. 1892-1906. 285.

--Bhramarāṣṭaka.

difference in order of verses.

Cf. above Rākṣasakāvya which is also called Buddhivinodakāvya.

--Vṛndāvanakāvya. K. 64 (with C.). Udaipur II. 174, 6. This is probably same as the Vṛ.
yamaka, ptd. in J. Vidyasagar, Kāvyasaṅgraha. III. pp. 486-499 as Mānāṅka's work.

See Kavitā, ‘a cycle of stanzas ascribed to K.’ with Bengali transl. and notes. An anthology
compiled by Vaishnavacharana Basak, Calcutta, 1897. Br. Mus. Ptd. Bks. 1892-1906. 284.

a strong tradition associates him with Tāntrik and Śākta writings and Devī hymns based on
Śākta doctrines.

--Kārpūrastotra. Jodhpur 1886.

(Siddhanāthakṛtatatkramastuteh2 Kālidāsaracitām ca pañcikām).

--Caṇḍikādaṇḍakastotra. Kh. 65. Most probably same as Śyāmalādaṇḍaka.

--Cidgaganacandrikā. [Page068-b]

Edn. Tantrik Texts XX. K. is ref. to as a. in śl. 3 at beg. but as śl. 305 here seems to
ref. to K. as a. of a Pañcikā on Siddhanātha's Kramastotra, this K. must be different and
later.

--Makarandastava (śrībīje nādabīnduº). MD. 10807.

Ptd. as spoken by Śiva in Vāṇī Vilās Press, Srirangam, Stotra Booklets and by R. R.
Damodara Moresvara Laghate, (N. S. Press) Bombay, 1917; in the latter assigned to Rudrayāmala

--Mātṛkā (puṣpa) mālāstava. Adyar. called also Akṣaramālikā stotra.

--Mīnanayanāṣṭaka. TD. 20207-10.

--Śyāmalādaṇḍaka.

Ptd. K. M. Gucch. I (3rd work). Also often separately.

On one Purāntaka, son of Mahādeva and donee at the hands of the Great Bhoja of Dhārā in 1001
A. D. as the a. of Śyāmalādaṇḍaka, see p. xiv, Preface to Mad. Uni. Skt. Ser. 11,
Sarasvatīkaṇṭhābharaṇa of Bhoja. [Page069-a]

as a. of some other stotras:

--Gaṅgāṣṭaka. two hymns of this name. See under that title.

--Maṅgalāṣṭaka or Varaº or more fully Navagrahamaṅgalāṣṭaka, invoking the blessings of
the nine planets, as also of other deities and each verse ending ‘kurvantu te (vo) maṅgalam’. K. is
mentioned as a. in some mss.; there are differences in opening and ending verses, probably some
addl. verses too in some; MD. 14158 mentions one Rāma, son of Narasiṁha of Gautama gotra as a. of
the version in that ms.

On this, see also Thomas, JRAS. 1903. pp. 785 ff. It is also preserved in inscriptions.

--Lakṣmīstava. Fl. 430.

--Śāradāstotra. IM. 11101.

Other lex. works ascribed to a K.:

--Ekākṣaranāmamālā lex. Bikaner 5450 (A. D. 1593).

--Nānārthaśabdaratna. Adyar D. VI. 836. MD. 1729. 1730.

On this there is a C. Taralā attributed to Niculakavi who is described as Yogicandra and as
prompted by King Bhoja. Adyar D. VI. 837. MD. 1731-2.

All this is evidently based on the tradition which sees reference to a contemporary a. Nicula in
K.'s Meghadūta I. 14, Adreh2 śṛṅgam.

--Ratnakośa. lex. L. 2574 (fr.).

Some jy. works ascribed to a K.:

--Uttarakālāmṛta. jy. MT. 3245 (a) (inc.).

First two verses refer to Vikramāditya and the second, to Kālī; in V. 36 and V. 53 of the text
in the edn. noted below, Telugu (Āndhrabhāṣā) and Asavya-lipi, probably Persian, are
mentioned.

Ptd. on the basis of the above ms., with Eng. transl. by V. Subrahmanya Sastri, Bangalore,
