Hardcover. Condizione: New. ISBN:9789359441535,192pp. Vedic Myths and Rituals, edited by Jan E.M. Houben and Julieta Rotaru, explores the intricate relationship between Vedic myths and Vedic rituals. The book delves into the symbolic and practical dimensions of Vedic traditions, offering fresh insights into ancient Indian religious practices. The essays in this volume address both problems of the textual sources of the most ancient myths and rituals, and reflections on different models of theorizing the Vedic myths and rituals. The volume presents a rich tapestry of topics, ranging from the study of myths and their employment in rituals, as seen in the story of the horse of Pedu and its connection to snake poison remedies, to the formal structures of Vedic rituals like the Sviṣṭakṛt that is an important part of numerous Vedic rituals such as the Agniṣṭoma. The book also examines the role of myths in understanding rituals such as the Saumikī Dīkṣā, the consecration for the Soma sacrifice, and questions the authenticity of female puberty rituals in ancient Vedic and Indian culture. In an exploration of the significance of commendations in the Atharvavedic tradition from ancient Kauśikasūtra to current practices of the Odisha Paippalādin scholars, ritualistic performances of entrusting individuals to divine protection through symbolic acts and prayers are highlighted. Additionally, it provides interpretations of lesser-known rituals, such as the bride with the yoke in the Kauśikasūtra, and explores interplay of word, style, and myth in the operation of Vedic rituals including medicinal magic. This volume is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Vedic studies, offering a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the deep connections between myth, ritual, and symbolism in ancient Indian culture. Through detailed analyses and innovative interpretations, the contributors shed light on the enduring significance of Vedic traditions in shaping religious and cultural practices.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. In comparison with the 'three canonical Vedas' which have many ritual works, Atharvaveda Saunaka has only two sutras, the Kausikasutra and the Vaitanasutra, and a small number of texts of a commentary type. The Samskaraprayogaratna, here edited and translated for the first time, represents an effort of referring to a superior ritual tradition, in the ever quest of the Atharvavedins of creating their own tradition and of making it accepted. In the introduction, passages of the respective rites from the Kausikasutra, Darila and Kesava and the two unpublished paddhatis (Atharvaniya Paddhati and Dasakarmani) are translated, most of them for the first time.…

Condizione: Sehr Gut. Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplarstempel auf Schnitt, Einband leicht bestoßen/defect copy stamp on cut, slightly bumped. Unlocking the Golden Past of the Rudari Woodworkers. This book is the first monograph on the history of the Rudari people of Romania and the first mapping of their settlements. The Rudari are a population which has traditionally inhabited the Balkan area and much of Central Europe. Many of them do not know the Romani language but speak Romanian dialects and today make a living out of carving wooden household items, although their Slavic name alludes to mining. Indeed, the Rudari were for centuries gold-prospectors and gold-washers working for the Crown of Wallachia and were administrated as slaves by a monastery situated on the auriferous Olt river. The authors have reconstructed the fascinating history of this ethnic group for a period of 500 years until the 19th century when gold-panning went in decline due to the exhaustion of the reserves of alluvial gold.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. The 41 papers in the present volume by Vedic scholars from Europe (Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Switzerland, U.K.), from the U.S.A., from India and from Japan, contribute to "the study of a civilization based on its texts" the brief definition of philology given in Michael Witzel's Introduction to the Proceedings of the First International Vedic Workshop edited by Michael Witzel (1997). The papers, although many may cover more than one field or topic, are placed in three broad categories. The second category is further divided Veda-wise. : 1) GENERAL STUDIES AND TOPICS ON SAKHAS: twelve papers in connection with the theme of the conference, Vedic Sakhas: past, present, future; 2) Twenty three SPECIFIC STUDIES ON SAKHAS: five on Rig Veda, ten on Yajur Veda, three on Sama Veda, five on Atharva Veda; 3) LINGUISTIC STUDIES: six studies on linguistic issues in connection with the Vedas and the Vedic Sakhas.…
