Is there any way to edit and publish Wüst’s unpublished works? He seems to have been ostracized for his Nazi connections. I should not be mis-understood. Though a hard-core democrat I do not see any harm just by knowing his philological contribution? It will be a different question if he propagated Nazi ideology in his post-1940 philological work. But we should know if that is the case. In spite of Oldenberg’s racialist views all his works are not avoided.

I benefited from both Western and Soviet publications, particularly the dictionaries and encyclopedias, without subscribing to any ideology. One can do the same with the scientific works of holders of obnoxious political views.

Is the Vergleichendes und Etymologisches Wörterbuch des Alt-Indoarischen (1935) available on the internet? Mayrhofer (1956-1980) refers to it, but at present it is very difficult to consult in India.
