Answer:
Jain literature refers to the literature of the
Jain religion. It is a vast and ancient literary
tradition, which was initially transmitted orally.
The oldest surviving material is contained in
the canonical Jain Agamas, which are written in
Ardhamagadhi, a Prakrit (Middle-Indo Aryan)
language. Various commentaries were written
on these canonical texts by later Jain monks.
Later works were also written in other
languages, like Sanskrit and Maharashtri
Prakrit.
