In den Warenkorb8vo, pp. [4], 157, [1]; a near fine, sound, and clean copy in original red cloth, gilt-stamped spine, with a very good dust jacket with slight chipping at the extremities. Issued as no. 5 in the publisher's Indo-Iranian Reprints series. First published in Leningrad by the USSR Academy of Sciences in 1937 in an edition "extremely… rare and practically unobtainable . This volume contains the edition of the Prajñd-paramita or Verses on the Accumulation of the Precious Virtues of the Perfection of Wisdom, and of its Tibetan translation. The text represents a summary in verse of the Prajñ?-p?ramit? and is written in an irregular meter for which the Tibetan has verses of 11 syllables. The existing version is not the original one, but a revision by Haribhadra. Its language is the Gatha dialect or "mixed Sanskrit", extremely irregular with many awkward forms and constant substitutions of long vowels for short ones. Without the help of the Tibetan translation it would often be nearly impossible to make out the meaning" (jacket blurb).
