Vedic Śākhās: past, present, future

Proceedings of the Fifth International Vedic Workshop,

Bucharest, 2011

Edited by Jan E.M. Houben, Julieta Rotaru, Michael Witzel

***

We regret that two contributors to the 2011 Bucharest conference have in
the mean time passed away:

Prof. Dr. Braj (Brij) Bihari Chaubey 1940-2014: his contribution “Some
Salient features of the Āśvalāyana-Saṁhitā” is in the present volume. Pt.
Narayan (Nanaji) Govind Kale 1933-2016 contributed indirectly through a
paper “Rare Veda Branches” presented at the 2011 conference by his son Pt.
Chaitanya N. Kale (see several references to this contribution through the
index under Kale), the latter also providing an extensive opening
recitation from the Rg and Sāma veda at the conference together with Pt.
Mukund R. Joshi.

>From the editors’ preface:

***

...

The scientific study of the Orient started in Romania long ago and reached
an early summit in the internationally acclaimed pioneering work of the
Romanian orientalist and historian of religions Mircea Eliade (1907-1986).
It was therefore fortunate and appropriate that the then Centre of
Eurasiatic and Afroasiatic Studies, after having organized several seminars
and courses in Eurasiatic and Afroasiatic Studies in preceding years, could
organize the Fifth International Vedic Workshop in Bucharest from 20 to 23
September 2011. The editors of the volume of Proceedings of this event are
happy that it could appear in the prestigious series of the Harvard
Oriental Series, Opera Minora, Cambridge (Mass.), where, nineteen years
ago, in 1997, also the Proceedings of the First International Vedic
Workshop edited by Michael Witzel appeared. The 41 papers in the present
volume contribute, in one way or another, to “the study of a civilization
based on its texts” – the brief definition of philology given in Michael
Witzel’s Introduction to the Proceedings of 1997.

The papers, although many of them may cover more than one field or topic,
are placed in three broad categories. The second category is further
divided Veda-wise.
