He was one of the founders of the western academic disciplines of Indian studies and religious studies. He wrote both scholarly and popular works on the subject of Indology. The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume set of English translations, was prepared under his direction. He also promoted the idea of a Turanian family of languages. M�ller was appointed deputy Taylorian professor of modern European languages at Oxford University. He was defeated in the 1860 election for the Boden Professor of Sanskrit, which was a "keen disappointment" to him. He was far better qualified for the post than the other candidate (Monier Monier-Williams), but his broad theological views, his Lutheranism, his German birth and lack of practical first-hand knowledge of India told against him. After the election he wrote to his mother, "all the best people voted for me, the Professors almost unanimously, but the vulgus profanum made the majority".
