Inhaltsangabe:

When the formal request came from Dr. R.V. Iyer, secretary of the Ministry of Culture, Government of India, to participate in the German Festival in India by holding a seminar, we heartily welcomed it. Besides fostering Indo-German friendship, the festival would also commemorate the death centenary of Friedrich Max Mueller (1823-1900), regarded by Swami Vivekananda as the reincarnation of Sayana, the great ancient rsi. The theme chosen for the seminar was Max Mueller and His Contemporaries. Its purpose was to take stock of the field of Indology today and look ahead to the future in areas-such as Sanskrit studies, comparative religion, philosophy, and social criticism, in which Max Mueller made such outstanding contributions.

This rather specialized book is a collection of the papers presented at the seminar.
