Description

The ten volumes in this set provide an important overview of early concepts of Hindu philosophy. J.R. Ballantyne's The Sankhya Aphorisms of Kapila and Davies's translation of the epic poem, The Bhagavad Gita offer interpretations of fundamental texts in Hindu philosophy. Also reprinted is John Dowson's Classical Dictionary of Hindu Mythology, which represents one of the first serious endeavours to classify for a western audience the religion, geography, history and literature of the Hindu world.
