AbstractThe present paper examines the form and function of Pali discourses as orally transmitted material. The first part takes up formal elements, such as "sound similarities", the "principal of waxing syllables", the frequent use of "repetition", and "pericopes". The second part turns to functional aspects of the Pali oral tradition, examining its "purposes" and the "reciters" responsible for its performance.
