@article{Falk_2014, title={Die Kurus und Ihre Jungen Frauen}, volume={110}, url={https://journal.fi/store/article/view/45354}, abstractNote={This article deals with the initial sentence of ChUp 1.10, where one ritualist of the Kurus leaves his home because of problems with <em>maṭacī</em>, together with his <em>āṭikā</em> wife. On the basis of a parallel in the BhārGS, <em>maṭacī</em> is defined as a demon attacking women after delivery, while <em>āṭikā</em> seems to denote a girl before puberty. The attitude towards such young girls finds expression in the <em>dharma</em>-literature and in one Buddhist <em>vinaya</em> rule. There are conflicting tenets right from the times of the ChUp: some people regard preadolescent girls as sexually attractive, while others abhor such ideas.}, journal={Studia Orientalia Electronica}, author={Falk, Harry}, year={2014}, month={Jun.}, pages={93–101} }
