Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to announce the publication of a work left unpublished by Marc Aurel Stein, in which he critically reconsiders his edition and translation of Kalhaṇa's Rājataraṅgiṇī more than fourty years after their first publication. This volume contains also Stein's photographic documentation of historical sites and realia referred to by the outstanding poet and which Stein intended to publish under the title of "Illustrated Rājataraṅgiṇī", a project that he - despite many attempts - could not bring to fruition during the last years of his life.
Marc Aurel Stein – Illustrated Rājataraṅgiṇī. Together with Eugen Hultzsch’s Critical Notes and Stein’s Maps. Edited by Luther Obrock
in Collaboration with Katrin Einicke. [Studia Indologica Universitatis Halensis 6]. Halle: Universitätsverlag Halle-Wittenberg 2013.
248 pp. 82 photographs, 2 folding maps.
EUR 78,00 ISBN 978-3-86977-077-2
