Description

About The Book: "Vedic Metre in its Historical Development" delves into the evolution of Vedic hymns' meter. The book encompasses various aspects, starting with a general introduction and linguistic evidence of dating in the Rigveda. It addresses the rearrangement of the Rigveda, sandhi, syllabic and quantitative restoration, and different meters like dimeter and trimeter verses. Less common meters, stanzas, and strophes are explored, along with a discussion on stanza forms. The book concludes with general findings, a hymn table, metrical commentary, and corrigenda. It also includes indices of subjects and Sanskrit terms for comprehensive reference on Vedic meter analysis.
