Proposed version of theological terms, with a view to uniformity in translations of the Holy Scriptures & c. into the various languages of India. Part the first. Sanscrit ... With remarks upon the rendering proposed by Dr. Mill, by Horace Hayman Wilson.

Description

At this period, Western academic interest in Sanskrit was twofold: as a gateway to the ancient literature of India, at that time the oldest known written scriptures; and as a way to render precise translations of Biblical scripture into the holy language of the Hindus. This work is among Wilson’s contributions to these efforts.
