Historical§003

Part V, 1897, the last of the run — the legends of Zaratûst: his parentage, the demons who try to injure him before and at his birth, the five Karap brothers, the conferences with the archangels. Seventeen years after Part I. The volume reached this reader titled "Marvels of Zoroastrianism", which was a fragment of a filename rather than a title, and its translator went unnamed until 2026-09-01.
