Bopp, Franz | Windischmann, K. J. (ed.)

Über das Conjugationssystem der Sanskritsprache in Vergleichung mit jenem der griechischen, lateinischen, persischen und germanischen Sprache. Nebst Episoden des Ramajan und Mahabharat in genauen metrischen Uebersetzungen aus dem Originaltexte und einigen Abschitten aus den Veda's.

Frankfurt am Main, in der Andreäischen Buchhandlung, 1816. 8vo. ii + xlvi + 312 pp. Contemporary boards, rubbed. With a 46-pp. introduction by the editor. In this influential publication, Bopp produced his comparison of the morphology of the Indian verb with the equivalent details in the grammars of Greek, Latin, Iranian, and Germanic. “He thereby established the science of comparative linguistics. […] Bopp’s importance lies in the fact that he was no mere grammarian but considered comparative philology to be an essential part of the history of civilization: out of their vocabulary he drew an accurante picture of the material and intellectual life of the earliest Indo- European people” (PMM). Zenker, 2, 2810. Printing and the Mind of Man, 275.
