  • Hemadri: A minister in the court of the Yadava rulers of Devagiri, he wrote the Chaturvarga Chintamani, an encyclopedic work on Hindu rituals, fasts (vratas), and charity.
  • Madhvacharya (Vidyaranya): Associated with the early Vijayanagara Empire, he wrote Parashar Madhav, which is a celebrated commentary on the Parashara Smriti.
  • Ballal Sen: A ruler of the Sena dynasty in Bengal, he was a scholar-king who wrote Dan Sagar (on the merits of gifting) and Adbhuta Sagar.
