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.…
