Edward Elbridge Salisbury and the AOS Roberta L Dougherty, Yale University
Yale University From the SelectedWorks of Roberta L. Dougherty Spring March 17, 2017 AOS 2017: Edward Elbridge Salisbury and the AOS Roberta L Dougherty, Yale University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/bintalbalad/23/ [SLIDE] An American Orientalist: Edward Elbridge Salisbury and the AOS AOS members probably know the subject of my paper this afternoon as one of the society’s prominent officers during its first half-century, having served as its Corresponding Secretary (1846-1857), President (twice, in 1863-1866, and again from 1873-1880),1 and, at various times, as member of the Board of Directors, a Vice President, and for his service on the publications committee of the Journal. The members may be less familiar with the fact that his appointment at Yale College as professor of Arabic and Sanskrit language and literature in 1841 was the first such professorship in the Americas--and in fact the first university professorship of any kind in the Americas.2 They may also be unaware of the extent to which Salisbury supported the early establishment of the Society not only with his time, but his means. Part of the AOS lore regarding Salisbury is that he was present at the society’s founding in 1842, but this was not actually the case. Although his name was indeed on the list of members first elected to the society after its founding, he may have remained unaware of his election for over a year. He was with some effort persuaded to serve as its Corresponding Secretary, and with even more difficulty persuaded to become its President. -

The Absent Vedas
The Absent Vedas Will SWEETMAN University of Otago The Vedas were first described by a European author in a text dating from the 1580s, which was subsequently copied by other authors and appeared in transla- tion in most of the major European languages in the course of the seventeenth century. It was not, however, until the 1730s that copies of the Vedas were first obtained by Europeans, even though Jesuit missionaries had been collecting Indi- an religious texts since the 1540s. I argue that the delay owes as much to the rela- tive absence of the Vedas in India—and hence to the greater practical significance for missionaries of other genres of religious literature—as to reluctance on the part of Brahmin scholars to transmit their texts to Europeans. By the early eighteenth century, a strange dichotomy was apparent in European views of the Vedas. In Europe, on the one hand, the best-informed scholars believed the Vedas to be the most ancient and authoritative of Indian religious texts and to preserve a monotheistic but secret doctrine, quite at odds with the popular worship of multiple deities. The Brahmins kept the Vedas, and kept them from those outside their caste, especially foreigners. One or more of the Vedas was said to be lost—perhaps precisely the one that contained the most sublime ideas of divinity. By the 1720s scholars in Europe had begun calling for the Vedas to be translated so that this secret doctrine could be revealed, and from the royal library in Paris a search for the texts of the Vedas was launched. -

Leibniz Online, Jahrgang 2015, Nr. 18 Zeitschrift der Leibniz-Sozietät e. V. ISSN 1863-3285 http://www.leibnizsozietaet.de/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/mylius.pdf Klaus Mylius Ein Pionier der Indologie Vor 200 Jahren wurde Otto von Böhtlingk geboren1 Wenn heute die Sanskritphilologie einen hohen Stand erreicht hat, dann ist es mehr als nur eine an- genehme Pflicht, derer zu gedenken, die als erste den steinigen Weg geebnet und beschritten haben, der auf das heutige Niveau geführt hat. Alfred Ludwig (1832-1912) hat dafür die treffenden Worte gefunden: „Das Verdienst derer, die zuerst Bahn gebrochen und Leuchten aufgestellt haben, welchen die Forschung immer wieder und wieder sich zuwenden wird, läßt eben das der Epigonen (selbst der verdientesten) immer als unendlich untergeordneten Ranges erscheinen, und der Pflicht der Dank- barkeit gegen jene würden sie selbst die hervorragendsten eigenen Leistungen nicht entbinden kön- nen.”2 Einer dieser ganz Großen ist unbestreitbar Otto von Böhtlingk. Am 11. Juni 1815 wurde er in St. Petersburg geboren. Dorthin waren 1713 seine Vorfahren aus Lübeck gekommen; sie hatten die hol- ländische Staatsbürgerschaft angenommen. Böhtlingk (künftig: B.) studierte zunächst (ab 1833) in St. Petersburg orientalische Sprachen, besonders Arabisch und Persisch. Ab 1835 setzte er seine nun- mehr indologischen und indogermanistischen Studien in Bonn bei A.W. von Schlegel (1767-1845) und in Berlin bei Franz Bopp (1791-1867) fort. 1842 kehrte er nach St. Petersburg zurück und wurde noch im selben Jahr Adjunkt der Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften. Seine Position in der Akade- mie ermöglichte ihm eine ungestörte Forschungsarbeit, die nicht durch Lehrverpflichtungen unter- brochen wurde. -

Prakrit, Sanskrit, and the Language Order of Premodern India
Language of the Snakes Prakrit, Sanskrit, and the Language Order of Premodern India Andrew Ollett Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 ©2015 Andrew Ollett All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Language of the Snakes Andrew Ollett Language of the Snakes is a biography of Prakrit, one of premodern India’s most important and most neglected literary languages. Prakrit was the language of a literary tradition that flourished om roughly the 1st to the 12th century . During this period, it served as a counterpart to Sanskrit, the preeminent language of literature and learning in India. Together, Sanskrit and Prakrit were the foundation for an enduring “language order” that governed the way that people thought of and used language. Language of the Snakes traces the history of this language order through the historical articulations of Prakrit, which are set out here for the first time: its invention and cultivation among the royal courts of central India around the 1st century , its representation in classical Sanskrit and Prakrit texts, the ways it is made into an object of systematic knowledge, and ultimately its displacement om the language practices of literature. Prakrit is shown to have played a critical role in the establishment of the cultural-political formation now called the “Sanskrit cosmopolis,” as shown through a genealogy of its two key practices, courtly literature (kāvya-) and royal eulogy (praśasti-). It played a similarly critical role in the emergence of vernacular textuality, as it provided a model for language practices that diverged om Sanskrit but nevertheless possessed an identity and regularity of their own. -
The Mahæbhærata in the West
The Mahæbhærata in the East and in the West From A. Holtzmann Vol. IV - 1895 Second Part The Mahæbhærata in the West Translated from German by Gilles Schaufelberger Chapter17 Aperçu sur la littérature English, German, French and American scholars have looked in the different parts of the epic, and in its relation with the rest of the Indian literature; but it is only since 1883 we have at our disposal a work dedicated to the Mahæbhærata, written by a Danish scholar, Sören Sörensen. 1. England has opened up the road into the Sanskrit literature’s studies, and particularly into Mahæbhærata’s. It is a young merchant, Charles Wilkins, who first gave a translation of the Bhagavadg∞tæ in 1785, opening thus the literature on the Mahæbhærata. A translation of the episode of Amƒtamanthana, from the Ædiparvan, followed. An other episode from the same, ›akuntalæ; followed in 1794 and 1795. In the annals of Oriental-literature, London, came out in 1820 and 1821 an anonymous translation of the beginning of the Ædiparvan, ending however with the Paulomæparvan, and not including the table of contents; this translation was also ascribed to Charles Wilkins, as in Gildemeister, bibl. Sanscr., p. 133: “interpres fuit Ch. Wilkins”; but H.H. Wilson in his Essays, ed. R. Reinhold Rost, T. I, p. 289, says more cautiously: “rendered into English, it is believed, by Sir Charles Wilkins”. In any case, from the introduction (dated Benares, 4th October 1784, the postscript 3rd December 1784) of the Governor General of India, the famous Warren Hastings, we know that Wilkins was working on a translation of the Mahæbhærata, “of which he has at this time translated more than a third”. -

International Journal of Jaina Studies (Online) Vol. 11, No. 1 (2015) 1-24 WHAT CAN THE LIFESPANS OF ṚṢABHA, BHARATA, ŚREYĀṂSA, AND ARA TELL US ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THE CONCEPT OF MOUNT MERU? Ruth Satinsky 1. Introduction Willibald Kirfel (1920/1990), in his major study on Indian cosmology, Die Kosmographie der Inder nach den Quellen dargestellt, compares the brahmanical, buddhist, and jaina cosmological systems, and gives an account of Mount Meru's characteristics in all three systems. He concludes that the early brahmanical cosmology forms the basis of the later cosmology found in the epics and purāṇas,1 and that of the buddhist and jaina systems, as well.2 Suzuko Ohira (1994: 22, §69) also adheres to Kirfel's point of view, and claims in her study of the Viyāhapannatti (= Bhagavatīsūtra): “[...] both Jainas and Buddhists built their own cosmographical features after the models of the Hindus.”3 1 “Die ältere Epoche der brāhmaṇischen Kosmographie ist aber nicht nur für die jüngere Voraussetzung und Grundlage, sondern auch für die Systeme der Buddhisten und Jaina die erst in späterer Zeit entstanden und auf den gegebenen Vorstellungen weiterbauen mussten” (Kirfel 1920/1990: 2). 2 Apart from Willibald Kirfel’s general work on Indian cosmology, scholarly literature has focused primarily on the symbolism of Mount Meru. See, e.g., Eliade, 1947/1969 and 1949/2004; von Heine-Geldern, 1930 and 1942; Mus, 1935/1990; Bosch, 1960; Mabbett, 1983; Granoff 1997/2009. These studies have presented Mount Meru variously as the “cosmic axis,” “home of the gods,” or “heaven on earth.” W. Randolf Kloetzli (1985) has argued that the shape of Mount Meru in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa is defined by the logic of stereographic projection; and (2010), that there may be a link between the names of the purāṇic Mount Meru and the “Climate of Meroë,” one of the “Seven Ptolemaic Climates.” Natalia R. -

Individual studies were made in the past to each of these aspects separately but this paper brings concepts together to form a network of similarity of ideas that stands ultimately in contrast to another reality of understanding, that is, two sets of networks. -
