Padmanābha
Padmanābha was a 15th-century Indian poet and historian.
He wrote the famous treatise "Kanhadade Prabandha" in 1455. This work has been praised as the finest work in old Gujarati or old Rajasthani, and one of the greatest Indian works written during the medieval period by eminent scholars like Muni Jinvijay, K.M. Munshi, Dasharatha Sharma and K.B. Vyas. The German Indologist Georg Bühler was the first Western scholar who wrote about this treatise. The work was translated into English by V.S. Bhatnagar, a professor of History at the University of Rajasthan, Jaipur.
