Works - shreevatsa/sanskrit GitHub Wiki

The oldest and canonical work is Piṅgala's Chandaḥśāstra. It is written in sūtra style; later works are in verse and condense some parts of it and expand others.

Some more works that apparently deal with metre:

• Chapters 14, 15, 32 of Bharata's Nāṭyaśāstra
• Chapters 328–335 of Agni-purāṇa

The main four works of the classical period:

1. Śrutabodha attributed to Kālidāsa (2nd century CE?)
2. Suvṛttatilaka of Kṣemendra (11th century)
3. Chandomañjarī of Gaṅgādāsa (12th century)
4. Vṛttaratnākara of Kedārabhaṭṭa (15th century)
