(6 December 1823 − 28 October 1900)

(1823–1900)

German-born philologist and Orientalist at Oxford University. He edited the Sanskrit Rig Veda and the series Sacred Books of the East, and helped develop the comparative study of language and religion.
Chips from a German Workshop. London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1867-75. 4 vols.  (BCW 1:501).

Works listed include Chips from a German Workshop (1867-1875) and Introduction to the Science of Religion (1873). The unidentified title Sâhitya Grantha is tentatively interpreted as a description of his Rigveda-Samhita edition, not a separate work.  (BCW 2:537).
