Chapter 6 reflects theoretically on the intellectual and emotional histories of Sanskrit logicians that run in parallel to each other as and when scholars express value for and argue on behalf of novelty through writing, reading, and debate. It argues for a certain type of novelty that is employed by Sanskrit logicians in their texts, namely, a “synchronic” novelty, in which the new and the old are coeval. Then, the chapter turns to examine how novelty arranges scholars into a specific and differentiated existence with each other. Finally, it explores the idea that novelty contains an emotional history that reveals scholars not only thinking but also feeling novelty.
