The aim of this work is a practical one; it is designed to furnish a book for the study of the classical Sanskrit in American and English colleges and universities.
A brief statement of the phonetic developments undergone by the principal Indo-Iranian languages from the Sanskrit, Avestan, and Old Persian through the Pali, the Prakrits, and Pahlavi down to the Hindi, Singhalese, New Persian, Afghan, and other Indo-Iranian dialects. Special pains have been taken to make the work as convenient as possible for reference.
The design of this bibliography is to give as complete a list as possible of all printed and manuscript Sanskrit plays and of articles and works relating to the Hindu drama. The introduction furnishes a convenient epitome of the whole subject.
This index collects in convenient form all examples of each word found in the hitherto discovered fragments not included in Geldner's edition of the Avesta.
