Book Review:
The following paragraphs from the pen of Professor Whitney, under the title, "Announcement as to a second volume of the Roth-Whitney edition of the Atharva-Veda," appeared about two years before Mr. Whitney's death, in the Proceedings for April, 1892, appended to the Journal of the American Oriental Society, volume xv., pages clxxi-clxxiii.
They show the way in which the labor done by Roth and Whitney upon the Atharva-Veda was divided between those two scholars.
Moreover, they state briefly and clearly the main purpose of Whitney's commentary, which is, to give for the text of this Veda the various readings of both Hindu and European authorities (living or manuscript),
And the variants of the Kashmirian or Päippalāda recension and of the corresponding passages of other Vedic texts, together with references to, or excerpts from, the ancillary works on meter, ritual, exegesis, etc.
They are significant as showing that in Mr. Whitney's mind the translation was entirely subordinate to the critical notes. Most significant of all-the last sentence makes a clear disclaimer of finality for this work by speaking of it as "material that is to help toward the study and final comprehension of this Veda."— C. R. L. J
