Published in English in 1884, this is the posthumous third edition
of an 1862 study by the German orientalist Martin Haug (1827 76).
He produced this groundbreaking analysis and comparison of Sanskrit
and the Avesta while professor of Sanskrit at the Government
College of Poona. His time in India enabled him to make an
unprecedented study of Zoroastrian texts, becoming the first to
translate the seventeen Gathas into a European language, thereby
helping to highlight that they were composed by Zoroaster. Edward
William West (1824 1905), an engineer and self-taught orientalist,
met Haug in India. Having read this work's first edition, he was
inspired to study further the Pahlavi language. On his and Haug's
return to Europe in 1866, they worked closely together in
translating and publishing Zoroastrian texts. West's edition of
Haug's Essays includes several updates, unpublished papers from
Haug's collection, appendices of further translations, and a
biography of the author.
