IV. Srinatha Acairyacuramani. 
Srindtha’s name is almost unknown nowadays. Yet he 
deserves to be better known in Bengal for various reasons. 
irstly, he was the author of several notable Smrti works, both 
commentaries and original treatises. Secondly, he belongs toa 
leaned family, his father Srikara and his son Ramabhadra 
being as learned as he, thus furnishing a good illustration of 
the principles of heredity. Thirdly, he was the teacher of the 
famous Raghunandana Bhattacharya, a distinction that alone 
should keep his name out of the gulf of oblivion. The present 
aticle is intended to give a brief account of the whole family, 
though the heading is put under Srinatha, the most notable 
member thereof.
