Das Kapīśāvadāna und seine Parallelversion im Piṇḍapātrāvadāna
The present work is a revised version of the dissertation accepted by the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Bonn in 1992. It contains the edition and translation of the Kapīśāvadāna and its parallel version in the Piṇḍapātrāvadāna as well as an introduction with three main points:
1. the assignment of the various Hss of the two Avadānas to the corresponding versions and, as far as possible, an account of the relationship of the various versions to each other,
2. the Buddhist narrative motifs used by the author, and
3. the hybrid Sanskrit forms.
