Annotation by Vishnudut1926: Superb research/thesis, dedicated to Shree MadhvAcharya’s Stotras and Madhva-Siddhanta in general.

The very last Chapter (named «Literary Excellence of MadhvAcharya») will be of special interest for those who are keen to study the poetics behind the theology of Shree MadhvAcharya: this Chapter dwells on Alankaras (Upama, Rupaka, Virodabhasa) in Shree MadhvAcharya’s devotional poetry.

Another praiseworthy feature of this research is the compilation of Pramanas/Shlokas in Sanskrit (Devanagari) — the second Appendix of this research is especially notable in this light: it contains Pramanas, proving that Shree MadhvAcharya is Mukhya-Vayu Avatara.

Originally I have found the scan of this thesis in «Rarest Archiver» feed on archive.org (#link to the feed). As usually I have made some amendments to the scan: removed big watermarks from its every page, made fonts more convenient for reading and added OCR-layer via NAPS2.
