E.g. He talks about a Mimamsa scholar named Khandadeva Mishra, the author of a famous Mimamsa text called Bhatta Dipika, which was apparently popular in Southern India until a couple of generations ago
But when I google "Khandadeva Mishra" I can barely get any details on him. Not even the period he belongs to!
