Index to the Jaina-Onomasticon of Johannes Klatt

Flügel, Peter; Krümpelmann, Kornelius

Abstract

The book offers twenty indexes unlocking the wealth of data on the history of the Jaina tradition embedded in Johannes Klatt's Jaina-Onomasticon. The indexes were created by the authors by cross-referencing the bio-bibliographical information collated Klatt with the help of the Jaina-Prosopography Database, focusing on the structure of roles and the social, religious and geographical affiliations of more than five-thousand-and-five-hundred named Jaina authors, scribes and patrons. The introduction describes the method of prosopographical analysis and highlights key statistical correlations.
