Hardcover. Zustand: New. 4th Edition. Our knowledge of the most ancient times in India rests mainly on tradition. The Purana, the Mahabharata, and in a minor degree the Ramayana profess to give accounts from tradition about the earliest accurrences. The Rgveda contains historical allusions,of which some record contemporary persons and events, but more refer to gone times and persons and are obviously based on tradition. Almost all the information therefore comes from tradition. The results obtained from an examination of Puranic and epic tradition as well as of the Rgveda and Vedic literature are set forth in the present book, which happens to be a pioneering work in the area by an important orientalist of the nineteenth century.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: The book delves into the Puranas' accounts detailing the dynasties of ancient India, including Matsya, Vayu, Brahmanda, Visnu, Bhagavata, Garuda, and Bhavisya. These narratives trace genealogies up to the Pandavas-Kauravas battle, then focus on North Indian rulers post-battle, notably Pauravas, Aiksvakus, and Barhadrathas. Matsya and Bhagavata diverge by introducing later dynasties separately. Versions of Matsya, Vayu, and Brahmanda share similarities, likely from one source. Visnu and Bhagavata, though condensed, also show parallels, suggesting a common origin. Despite discrepancies, these texts offer valuable insights into ancient Indian history, likely originating in literary Prakrit, possibly in Magadha. The transmission of Vedic hymns by Brahmins paved the way for the oral tradition, with bards and minstrels contributing metrical records. Cross-verification across North India and attempts at accuracy in compiling Puranic genealogies add to the richness of historical narratives. Textual analyses hint at a compilation evolution starting in the 3rd century, possibly written in Sanskrit in Kharosthi script, preceding the Gupta era. About The Editor: Frederick Eden Pargiter (18521927) was a British civil servant and Orientalist. He served in India from 1875 to 1906, holding various positions, including Under-Secretary to the Government of Bengal and judge of the Calcutta High Court. Pargiter's notable work, "Ancient Indian Historical Tradition," proposed significant chronological datings for events like the Battle of Kurukshetra.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The book deals historicity of the Puranic texts since it is one of the important sources of studying ancient Indian empires, such as Pauravas, Vidishas, Nandas, Mauryans, Shungas, Ikshvakus, Andhras, and other dynasties dating around 3rd to 4th century AD. Primarily, this book deals with the content of the texts, which records the major predictions and prophecies associated with the future. The title also deals with the structure of the text, compositions, textual variants, hermeneutics, interpolation, and the manuscript tradition, wherein it discusses Bhavisya Purana's codices found in different libraries across India and outside India. It also deals with the variants written in a non-Sanskrit language like Prakrit, which is the sacred language of the Jains, and inscriptions found in different parts of India.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: The book discusses the importance of using information from Vedic, Epic, and Puranic literature for understanding the ancient history of India. Traditionally, our knowledge of ancient India has been based on these sources, which include accounts of early occurrences and historical allusions. However, modern scholars tend to focus only on Vedic literature, neglecting the valuable information found in Puranic and epic tradition. The book argues that this approach is limiting and compares it to constructing European history solely from theological literature. The book is a pioneering work in the field by an important orientalist of the nineteenth century. About The Author: Frederick Eden Pargiter (18521927) was a British civil servant and Orientalist. Pargiter was the second son of Rev. Robert Pargiter. He studied at Taunton Grammar School and Exeter College, Oxford where he passed in 1873 with a first-class in mathematics. Pargiter passed the Indian Civil Service examinations and embarked for India in 1875. Pargiter served in India from 1875 to 1906 becoming Under-Secretary to the Government of Bengal in 1885, District and Sessions Court judge in 1887 and a judge of the Calcutta High Court in 1904. Pargiter voluntarily retired in 1906 following the death of his wife and returned to the United Kingdom. Pargiter died at Oxford on 18 February 1927 in his seventy-fifth year.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words' is an essential philological resource compiled by the scholar F. E. Pargiter. This volume serves as a specialized lexicon dedicated to the nuanced and often overlooked vernacular expressions of the Bengali language. Moving beyond standard dictionary definitions, the work focuses on peculiar words-those regionalisms, colloquialisms, and unique linguistic constructs that characterize the spoken tongue of the early 20th century.The collection is meticulously organized to assist scholars, linguists, and students of South Asian languages in understanding the depth and diversity of Bengali speech. Pargiter's expertise in Indian history and culture provides a solid foundation for this linguistic study, making it a valuable tool for those interested in the evolution of regional dialects and the preservation of vernacular traditions. By documenting these specific terms, 'Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words' offers a window into the cultural and social life of the era, captured through its unique vocabulary. Whether for academic research or a deep interest in the linguistic heritage of South Asia, this work remains a significant contribution to the field of Indic studies.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Generally, when we study apocalyptic events, we refer to the Judeo-Christian and Islamic texts, where a particular prophet was assigned to prophesize about the futuristic events. However, in Hinduism, the Bhavisya Purana covers the eschatological aspects, which will occur in the Kali Yuga, the darkest age in the Hindu faith. The Bhavisya Purana is one of the most controversial texts, as many of the apocalyptic and prophetic stories were borrowed from various ancient Semitic, Mesopotamian, Persian, Christian, and other sources. This title deals with the critical analysis of Bhavisya Purana. The book deals historicity of the Puranic texts since it is one of the important sources of studying ancient Indian empires, such as Pauravas, Vidishas, Nandas, Mauryans, Shungas, Ikshvakus, Andhras, and other dynasties dating around 3rd to 4th century AD.
