SLITERATION OF ORIENTAL ALPHABETS,

SACRED BOOKS OF THE EAST

TRANSLATED BY VARIOUS ORIENTAL SCHOLARS

AND EDITED BY

THE RIGHT HON.

F. MAX MULLER.

This Series is published with the sanction and co-operation of the Secretary of State for India in Council,

REPORT presented to the ACADBMIE DES INSCRIPTIONS, May 11,
1883, by M. BRNEST RENAN.

‘M. Renan présente trois nouveaux volumes de la grande collection des “Livres sacrés de l’Orient” (Sacred Books of the East), que dirige 4 Oxford, avec une si vaste érudition et une critique si sire, le savant associé de 1’Académie des Inscriptions, M. Max Miiller.... La premiére série de ce beau recueil, comosée de 24 volumes, est presque achevée. M. Max Miiller se propose d’en publier une seconde, dont l’intérét historique et religieux ne sera pas moindre. M. Max Miiller a su se procurer la collaboration des savans les plus éminens d’Europe et d’Asie. L’Université d’Oxford, que cette grande publication honore au plus haut degré, doit tenir 4 continuer dans les plus larges proportions une ceuvre aussi philosophiquement congue que savamment exécutée.’

BXTRAOCT from the QUARTERLY REVIEW.

“We rejoice to notice that a second series of these translations has been announced and has actually begun to appear. The stones, at least, out of which a stately edifice may hereafter arise, are here being brought together. Prof. Max Miiller has deserved well of scientific history. Not a few minds owe to his enticing words their first attraction to this branch of study. But no work of his, not even the

The stones, at least, out of which a stately edifice may hereafter arise, are here being brought together. Prof. Max Miiller has deserved well of scientific history. Not a few minds owe to his enticing words their first attraction to this branch of study. But no work of his, not even the great edition of the Rig-Veda, can compare in importance or in usefulness with this English translation of the Sacred Books of the East, which has been devised by his foresight, successfully brought so far by his persuasive and organising power, and will, we trust, by the assistance of the distinguished scholars he has gathered round him, be carried in due time to a happy completion.’

Professor BE. HARDY, Inaugural Lecture in the University of Freiburg, 1887.

‘Die allgemeine vergleichende Religionswissenschaft datirt von jenem grossartigen, in seiner Art einzig dastehenden Unternehmen, zu welchem auf Anregung Max Miillers im Jahre 1874 auf dem internationalen Orientalistencongress in London der Grundstein gelegt worden war, die Ubersetzung der heiligen Biicher des Ostens’ (the Sacred Books of the East).

The Hon. ALEERT 8S. G. CANNING, ‘Words on Existing Religions.’

‘ The recent publication of the “ Sacred
Books of the East” in English is surely

a great event in the annals of theological literature.’

FIRST SERIES.

Vou. 1. The Upanishads.

Translated by F. Max Mtittzr. Part I. The Kfdndogyaupanishad, The Talavaka4ra-upanishad, The Aitareya-franyaka, The Kaushitaki-braéhmama-upanishad, and The V4gasaneyisamhita-upanishad. Second Edition. 8vo, cloth, ros. 6d.

The Upanishads contain the philosophy of the Veda. They have become the foundation of the later Vedénta doctrines, and indtrecily of Buddhism. Schopenhauer, speaking of the Upanishads, says : ‘In the whole world there ts no study so beneficial and so elevating as that of the Upanishads. It has been the solace of my life, tt will be the solace of my death.’

[See also Vol. XV.]

and Baudhfyana. Translated by Grorc Bunter. Part I.
