Chandas (prosody, study of Sanskrit metres)
Source: Shodhganga: a concise history of Sanskrit Chanda literatureChandaḥsārasaṅgraha (छन्दःसारसङ्ग्रह) is the name of a work on Sanskrit prosody ascribed to Candramohana Ghoṣa (before 1893 C.E.): a modern author of Bengal contributed to Sanskrit Prosody by his Chandaḥsārasaṅgraha. The text was published from Calcutta in 1893 C.E. Therefore it can be presumed that he flourished in the 2nd half of 19th Cent.
The Chandaḥsārasaṅgraha is a recast of Sanskrit Prosody according to modern principles of prosody from ancient sources. Though the text was published from Calcutta in 1893, but extent of the text could not be traced, because of non-availability of the text.
Chandas (छन्दस्) refers to Sanskrit prosody and represents one of the six Vedangas (auxiliary disciplines belonging to the study of the Vedas). The science of prosody (chandas-shastra) focusses on the study of the poetic meters such as the commonly known twenty-six metres mentioned by Pingalas.
