Since Herman and Asko read my mother tongue, I may add this curiosum:

P. van Andel et al., Koning Sivi en doctor Silva: bijdragen uit boeddhologie en 
oftalmologie, Groningen 1989.


Best wishes,

Subject: Re: [INDOLOGY] Book on the Śibi myth

Dear Herman,

You must have been thinking of this book:

Meisig, Marion, 1995. König Śibi und die Taube. Wandlung und Wanderung eines 
Erzählstoffes von Indien nach China. (Studies in Oriental religions, vol. 35.) 
Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz Verlag. ix, 271 pp.

See also:

Sudyka, Lidia, 2015. Generosity at the limits: The King Śibi story and its 
versions in the historical and cultural context of Andhra and Tamil Nadu. Pp. 
416-440 in: Tiziana Pontillo, Cristina Bignami, Moreno Dore and Elena 
Mucciarelli (eds.), The volatile world of sovereignty: The vrātya problem and 
kingship in South Asia. New Delhi: D. K. Printworld.

Best wishes, Asko

Dear List members,
I am searching for a particular publication on the Śibi myth. I am interested 
in it in connection with the Cōḻa dynastic history. I remember having seen 
announced sometime back a book on Śibi similar to, for instance, Adalbert 
Gail's Paraśurāma. Brahmane und Krieger (Harrassowitz). If it exists, I can't 
trace it. So perhaps my memory is playing tricks on me. I hope someone on the 
list can enlighten me (on the book or the state of my memory).
With kind regards, Herman
