English summary: Dharmakirti's second fundamental treatise, the Pramanaviniscaya, contains a mature and comprehensive explanation of his epistemology and logic. The work of this influential Indian philosopher, active in the first half of the 7th century CE, consists of three chapters that are devoted, respectively, to the sources of knowledge and perception, to inference, and to proof. The first two chapters are presented here. An edition of the third chapter is under preparation by Pascale Hugon, Toru Tomabechi, and Tom Tillemans. Until recently this work was known only through its Tibetan translation. The present edition of the original Sanskrit text is based on two complete codices, three larger and one smaller fragment in the collection of photocopies of the Chinese Tibetology Research Center, Beijing, as well as a single folio from the National Archives, Kathmandu. Of this manuscript materials there are actually three complete codices available for the first two chapters. In addition to these codices, numerous citations and reports are adduced as secondary testimonies. The introduction not only describes the codices used for the present edition and the fragments relevant for the third chapter, but also introduces the secondary testimonies and explains their treatment. Preliminary conclusions about the stemma as based on the present text and explanations of the apparatus and editorial conventions conclude the introduction. In addition, the publication includes a bibliography, two appendices and indices. German description: Dharmakirtis zweites Hauptwerk, der Prama?aviniscaya, enthalt die ausgereifte und umfassende Darlegung seiner Erkenntnislehre und Logik. Das Werk dieses einflussreichen indischen Philosophen der ersten Halfte des 7. Jh. n.u.Z. besteht aus drei Kapiteln, die den Erkenntnisquellen und der Wahrnehmung, der Schluafolgerung, und dem Beweis gewidmet sind. Die beiden ersten Kapitel liegen hier vor. Die Edition des dritten Kapitels durch Pascale Hugon, Toru Tomabechi und Tom Tillemans ist z. Z. in Vorbereitung. Das Werk war bis vor kurzem nur durch seine tibetische Ubersetzung bekannt. Die vorgelegte Edition des originalen Sanskrit-Textes beruht auf zwei vollstandigen codices, drei groaeren und einem kleineren Fragmenten in der Kopiensammlung des Chinese Tibetology Research Center, Beijing, und einem einzelnen Blatt der national Archives, Kathmandu. Fur die ersten zwei Kapitel verfugen wir sogar uber drei codices. Neben diesen codices stehen zahlreiche Zitate und Referate als Sekundarzeugen. In der Einleitung werden nicht nur die fur die vorliegende Ausgabe relevanten codices beschrieben, sondern auch die fragmentarischen fur das dritte Kapitel. Dazu werden die Sekundarquellen vorgestellt und die Art ihrer Behandlung begrundet. Vorlaufige, nur auf den bearbeiteten Bereich bezogene Stemma-Bemerkungen sowie Erklarungen der Apparate und Konventionen schlieaen die Einleitung ab.
