The Compilation of the Basic Materials of the Jaiminiya Samaveda

本研究项目的目的是系统地整理、分析和分类所有斋明雅沙摩吠陀传统的口头和书面材料，从而将它们汇编成斋明雅沙摩吠陀基本材料的综合集合。这些资料主要包括我一直在收集的棕榈叶和纸手稿，我在南印度实地研究时录制的萨马吠陀圣歌的音频和视频磁带，以及其他学者获得的材料副本。我通过以下过程进行了研究：1。在对复制、印刷等材料进行了前期处理之后，我首先对所有的材料进行了系统的整理，通过追溯材料之间的关系和对应关系，然后建立它们的整体结构。然后我分析了材料。对于手稿，我粗略地通读了一遍，并制作了内容表。对于萨马吠陀圣歌的录音带和录像带，我记下了章节编号，圣歌的名字，以及每首圣歌的持续时间。通过根据内容和与传统地点的关系对这些材料进行分类，我将它们汇编成斋明雅三观的基本材料集。为了增加材料的效用，我也将部分主要文本（Samhita）输入电脑。分类收集和数字化文本将成为未来研究Jaiminiya Samaveda的主要来源，包括文献学和音乐学。除了收藏本身之外，作为目前研究的结果，我还制作了一份《斋明雅沙摩吠陀》基本资料的描述性目录。

The aim of the present research project is to arrange, analyze and classify systematically all the oral and written materials of the Jaiminiya Samaveda tradition, and thereby to compile them into a comprehensive collection of the basic materials of the Jaiminiya Samaveda. The materials mainly consist of the palm-leaf and paper manuscripts which I have been collecting, the audio and video tapes of the Samavedic chants which I have recorded, in my field research in South India, and the copies of the materials acquired by other scholars.I have carried out the research by the following process :1. After the preparatory treatment for the materials like copying and printing, I arranged systematically all the materials first by tracing the relationships and the correspondence between the materials, and then by establishing their whole structure.2. Then I analyzed the materials. For the manuscripts, I read through them roughly and made their content tables. For the audio and video tapes of the Samavedic chants, I wrote down chapter numbers, names of chants, and duration of each chant.3. By classifying the materials on the basis of their contents and relations with the places of the traditions, I compiled them into a collection of the basic materials of the Jaiminiya Samaveda.To increase the utility of the materials, I have also input some part of the main texts (Samhita) into a computer. The classified collection and the digitalized texts will be a primary source for future studies, both philological and musicological, of the Jaiminiya Samaveda. Besides the collection itself, I have made a descriptive catalogue of the basic materials of the Jaiminiya Samaveda as a result of the present research.
