The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Kathāsaritsāgara contains multiple layers of story within a story and is said to have been adopted from Guṇāḍhya's Bṛhatkathā, which was written in a poorly understood language known as Paiśāchī.
- The Bṛhatkathā is no longer extant but several later adaptations still exist , the Kathāsaritsāgara, Bṛhatkathamanjari and Bṛhatkathāślokasaṃgraha.
- However, none of these recensions necessarily derives directly from Gunadhya, and each may have intermediate versions.
