Description

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. Translated into English by authorities in their respective fields, these sacred texts have been edited by F. Max Muller and have profoundly influenced civilization. Hymns of the Atharvaveda (1897) translated by Maurice Bloomfield, is volume XLII of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This volume focuses on Hinduism and is written in verse form. It contains nearly 6,000 mantras and 730 hymns, and addresses daily rituals and magical charms. This book is for readers interested in deepening their knowledge of Hinduism.

Author Biography:

MAURICE BLOOMFIELD (1855-1928) was born in what is now Poland. He moved to the United States at age thirteen, and studied at Furman, Yale, and Johns Hopkins Universities. A professor of Sanskrit and comparative philology for 45 years, Bloomfield was considered an authority on the Vedas. F. MAX M�LLER (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.
