| Here is a key to
unlock the oldest treasury of mankind’s wisdom: Vedic literature — not just
the metrical language of its hymns, but also the prose pieces of the
Brahmanas/Brah-mana-like writings: whether from the Atharva or the Yujurveda.
Setting forth a comprehensive phonetic survey of Vedic sounds, the author: an
eminent Orientalist of yester years, offers lucid explanatory accounts of
Vedic sandhi-system (euphonic combination), declension, conjugation,
indeclinable words, nominal stem formation and, finally, of its syntax — with
numerous illustrations. At the base of Macdonell’s Grammar is the first ever,
yet the most authentic, linguistic material of the Rigveda — supplemented,
though, it is from other Samhitas as well. Also marked here are the grammatical
forms of the Brahmanas where they differ from those of the later-day
classical Sanskrit. Now ‘reprinted’ afresh in an innovative format, this book
has sustained its decades-long worldwide importance as an undisputed,
systematically organised aid to the study of Vedic literature. And, for sure,
retains its indispensablity to scholars even today! |
