The Indian Historical Quarterly December 1927

1927

In his introduction to the above work while giving a short sketch of the life of Linpada HPS mentions the name of the above work as found in the Tanjur but deplores the fact of its being lost in the original. [...] In reading the Bengali original the first thing that strikes the reader is the complete absence of the title and the bendictory and introductory lines which in the Tibetan preced the dohas proper. [...] Moreover the Gathas themselves and the tradition suggest that the scene of the activity of Zoroaster lay rather in the region of Baktria where as Oldenbe rg 1 held the opposition of the settled life of the husbandmen and that of the nomads was specially marked. [...] All that is certain is that owing to the break in our linguistic evidence we cannot on the strength of certain similarities between the Avestan of the G5thils and the later West Iranian dialects locate the home of Avestan in the west rather than in the east. [...] As opposed to the Persian of the inscriptions the laguage of the Gathas is remarkably archaic ; in certain respects it is notably more archaic than even the oldest of the hymns of the.6gveda.
