Sources: Wikipedia page identity · Wikipedia source revision · Priyadarsika: primary play text in English translation

Wikipedia source revision: Wikipedia contributors, Priyadarśikā; revision 1279377429. History: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Priyadar%C5%9Bik%C4%81&action=history ; license: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ . Synopsis paraphrased during individual-page model review. Catalog year basis: Use 625 est as a representative early-seventh-century composition estimate. The source explicitly classifies the work as seventh-century and associates Harsha with 606–648; the play’s own induction presents the new work to an assembly under King Harsha. This is a broad inferred work-period estimate, not an attested 625 premiere. It avoids placing the point after the stated 648 endpoint.

Priyadarsika: primary play text in English translation: Nariman/Jackson translation with Ogden/Haas, reprinted by In Parentheses in 2000. Dramatis personae on PDF page 2 and the induction on PDF pages 3–4 support the premise and Harsha court context. Translation publication is not the ancient work date. Accessed 2026-11-05.
