The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume series, encompasses the seven non-Christian religions of Asia: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam.

The Satapatha Brahmana, Part 1 (1882) translated by Julius Eggeling, is volume XII of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book is in five parts and focuses on Hinduism. Part 1 was written according to The Text of Madhyandina School, a branch of Shukla Yajurveda and provides thorough explanations of sacrificial ceremonies.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

JULIUS EGGELING (1842-1918), a native of Germany, was a professor of Sanskrit and comparative philology at Edinburgh University and secretary of the Royal Asiatic Society of London. His knowledge of Sanskrit led him to translate The Satapatha Brahmana found in The Sacred Books of the East. F. MAX MÜLLER (1823-1900) was a German author and orientalist who lived in England most of his life. As a professor at Oxford, he combined the studies of language, culture, and religion to create the discipline of comparative mythology. His body of work included The Sacred Books of the East, which he had edited.
