DEDICATED το THE TRUSTEES OF THE FUNDS AND PROPERTIES OF THE PARSEE PUNCHAYET

Preface. The Avesta-Reader comprises those of the Avesta-texts that are of most importance to philologists and historians. The t e x t e are arranged in groups, according to their subjects; inside the groups the easier texts come first. With the exception of the Haööxt-Nask and the Nirangastan they follow Geldner's edition. Variations from Geldner's edition are in all cases founded on the best MSS.: they are indicated by the symbol \ corrupt words or passages by the symbol The n o t e s are designed to introduce the reader to the Avesta in such a manner that he may learn to translate and anderstand the texte correctly. Accordingly they do not merely call attention to all pecularities of language and especially of syntax, but also go into all questions of the history of civilisation and religion that are of importance for the proper understanding of the texts. In order to save space reference is frequently made to my Avesta primer (Awestisches Elementarbuch) which gives fuller information in the paragraph (§) indicated. The g l o s s a r y is kept within very narrow limits and supplies only those Indian words which certainly correspond to the words in the Avesta, the aim being to render easier the determination of the form (and meaning) of the latter. The i n d e x is meant to assist the student in employing the material worked into the notes where this deals with the history of religion and civilisation; accordingly it also supplies brief definitions and summaries arranged under suitable key-words. The aims and methods adopted in composing the Avesta-Reader are as follows: 1. The texts are given throughout in the form of the earliest MSS. obtainable. (Hence the texts are given with all the pecularities and mistakes of spelling, accidence and syntax that occur in the oldest MSS. Only the text of the Nirangastdn, the most corrupt of all, has been emended in places.) 2. These pecu·

VIII

larities and mistakes have been determined in accordance with the grammatical principles derived from the two dialects vof the Avesta itself, with the additional aid of those which are based upon the Indian and the other indogermanic languages. 3. The age of the individual texts is estimated by the language and the contents. (The determination of the age of the texts by means of the language goes hand in band with the indication of the peculiar forms and mistakes. The contents are of importance only in those cases in which they clearly prove that the corrupt language of a text is the result of its having been incorrectly handed down.) 4. A correct translation is aimed at as the basis for the exegesis. The exegesis itself necessarily takes account in all cases of the standpoint of the priests who are to be regarded as the authors of the texts: this method is essential, since the texts are throughout of a religious character or at least stand in some sort of relation to religion. The standard by which any particular standpoint of the priests is to be judged depends upon the stage reached by religion in the process of evolution from the simple Zoroastrian doctrine to the complicated formalism of its last period. 5. The new and original elements of the Zoroastrian doctrine are determined by eliminating the old elements of the Aryan religion or mythology which were preserved by Zoroaster or reincorporated after his time. 6. The attempt is made to free the elements of the Iranian king· and hero-legend from their religious dress and to reduce them as fai as possible to their original form. The philological works upon which the Avesta-Reader is based are the well-known books of Bartholomae, Geiger, Geldner, Httbschmann, Jackson, Justi etc.; in matters relating to the history of religion and civilisation the authorities principally employed, apart from my own investigations, are the Pahlavi-books, Geiger's Ostiranische Kultur, Jackson's Zoroaster, Oldenberg's Religion des Veda etc. Bartholomae's Wörterbuch and his Gäthä-Ubersetzung have however been consulted at every turn; they are the best guide for the teacher uo less than for the learner. The Avesta-Reader is dedicated to the Trustees of the Funds and Properties of the Parsee Punchayet. I welcome this opportunity of rendering these generously-minded gentlemen, who hold out a helping hand to every one who devotes his working powers to the investigation of the Aveeta-documents, a small portion of the thanks which I myself owe them. May they find much pleasure in this book, which presente in all its texts a true and reliable picture of the evolution

IX

of their religion and exhibits in the G&thfts the greatness and sublimity of the Zoroaetrian doctrine in its original power and veracity. To Professor Bartholomae I owe a special debt of gratitude for the help he has given me in correcting the proofs of the Avestan part of the book. Finally I beg the reader not to criticise my English two severely. I have only written the book in English because I was specially reqnested to do so by the Parsees who do not understand German.
