This critical study of Anantadas 'biographies' of 15th and 16th century bhakti poets gives a broad spectrum of the linguistic and morphlogical variants and reveals the process of oral and scribal transmission which allowed sectarian interests to appropriate certain poets and change their 'biographies' accordingly.
Anantadas is the first ''biographer'' who, around 1600, wrote about the most popular bhakti poets of the 15th and 16th centuries in Northern India. This critical study of these manuscripts yields a broad spectrum of the linguistic and morphological variants. It also reveals the processes of oral and scribal transmission during this time when sectarian interests appropriated certain poets and changed their ''biographies'' accordingly.
