"The most pressing need at the present day is the detailed investigation of carefully chosen aspects of Indian history, and it was a happy thought of Dr. Bimala Charan Law to select for investigation the history of certain Ksatriya tribes of Ancient India. Many things are obscure in the history of these tribes, and it is of special value to have the whole of the facts regarding them set out, without parti pris, in a spirit of scientific research. The entire volume is to present a narrative of the history, manners, customs etc. of some Ksatriya tribes of ancient India. Scholars like Rhys Davids, Hoernle, Macdonell, Keith, Cunningham and others have no doubt from time to time supplied valuable information regarding some of these tribes but a comprehensive and systematic account of the Ksatriya tribes who play such an important part in the history of pre-Mauryan India. The major portion of the present volume embodies--the results of my own researches. The author have utilised original works, Sanskrit, Pali, and Prakrt such as the Vedas, the Upanisads, the Mahabharata, the Ramayana, the Puranas, the Nikayas, the Jatakas, the Pali commentaries, the Kalpa Sutra, the Sutrakrtanga, etc." (jacket).…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: ENGLISH. About the Book:-The present treatise is a collection of six essays, dealing with subjects of historical importance. Most of them have been published in the Journals and Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. The author has revised the printed essays and verified the references. These will go at once to show that his researches have been confined to Buddhist literature, particularly that in Pill, and that his is mostly a compilation work. However thankless such a task may appear to the general reader, it has an immense value as supplying materials for Indian history, and to him, at least, it is of paramount importance. Though people talk glibly about ancient Indian history, it is those actually working in the field who can realize how uncertain the data are and how scanty the materials which have hitherto been collected. We are not to remain idle under the impression that there is no further need for the work of collection and compilation, nor should we belittle the importance of the works of those like the writer, who have honestly and assiduously been labouring hard to bring together and publish the references from a particular literature bearing upon a particular topic. About the Author:-Bimala Churn Law was also known as Bimala Charan Laha, was a reputed Bengali scholar, historian, editor, translator and compiler. He was born in 1892 and died in 1969. He has 347 works in 1,233 publications in 4 languages and 5,214 library holdings to his credit. His genres of works are history, criticism, interpretation, biographies, paraphrases, commentaries, Academic theses, sacred books, and bibliographies. He is the author many such as -- The Buddhist conception of spirits; Historical geography of ancient India; A history of Pa?li literature; Heaven and hell in Buddhist perspective; The life and work of Buddhaghosa; and Women in Buddhist literature.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book :- The author of this book is an investigator in that unharnessed field of Buddhism, needs no introduction. His prolegomenon to Buddhaghosa, published over two years ago, in the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. In that essay, he drew up a list of 14 questions on his present subject. All were of historical interest. All would have to be discussed in any critical history of this work. He had there no scope to deal with any one of them. Here the titles of his chapters taken together virtually cover those 14 questions. His book will be by no means a last word on the subject. It will be relatively easy for European scholars, less undaunted than the author to carry forward their work 'when we get all that has been ascribed to Buddhaghosa printed in Roman letter. But the book is all the more needed now as a very useful compendium of what we yet know of it both from his own works and from other documents. The interpretations provided by Buddhaghosa have constituted the orthodox understanding of Theravada scriptures since at least the 12th century CE. This book talks not only about his life, but also the legends surrounding him, his work, his successors, and his philosophy. It contains three illustrations which the author has preserved from oblivion.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: The purpose of this book is to present a comprehensive historical account of various prominent ancient Indian clans during the time of the Buddha, such as the Licchavis, Videhas, Mallas, Shakya, and other minor clans. Remarkably, this aspect of Indian history has received inadequate attention from historians until now. While Dr. Rhys Davids briefly mentions these clans in his work "Buddhist India," the Hinayana Buddhist literature provides more references to these significant clans compared to the relatively limited information found in the Mahayana Buddhist literature. When it comes to the minor clans, the northern Buddhist literature remains silent, while the southern Buddhist literature offers only scant details. Sanskrit literature offers little help in this regard. To gather information, the author has consulted Tibetan literature as well as the writings of English, French, and German authors. About The Author: Bimala Churn Law (1892-1969), also known as Bimala Charan Laha, was a renowned Bengali scholar, historian, editor, translator, and compiler. His impressive body of work comprises 347 publications in 1,233 editions across four languages, with a total of 5,214 library holdings. Law's writings encompass various genres such as history, criticism, interpretation, biographies, paraphrases, commentaries, academic theses, sacred books, and bibliographies. Among his notable works are "The Buddhist Conception of Spirits," "Historical Geography of Ancient India," "A History of P?li Literature," "Heaven and Hell in Buddhist Perspective," "The Life and Work of Buddhaghosa," and "Women in Buddhist Literature." Law's contributions have made him a significant figure in the field of scholarship and have greatly enriched the understanding of various subjects within his areas of expertise.
