Dear all, hm, which similarities exactly?
Concerning grammar, there is the old, but still impressive for showing the parallelisms A. V. Williams Jackson: An Avesta grammar, in comparison with Sanskrit. Part I. Phonology, inflection, word-formation. Stuttgart 1892
Concerning metrics, I've ventured to discuss similarities and differences in the first chapter of Metrik und metrische Techniken im Rgveda: Streckformen in Trimeter-Versen. Graz 1998 (https://titus.uni-frankfurt.de/personal/agnes/dipl.htm), which will be reprinted in the nearer future (and I could send the 1st chapter if someone is interested).
Concerning the ritual, I have an article by Michael Witzel in mind which discussed the parallel elements in Avestan and Vedic texts, but unfortunately I can't remember the title now.
Perhaps other list members can help. Best wishes, Agnes Le 05.10.2023 à 06:41, Patricia SAUTHOFF a écrit :
Dear Friends, A friend who is not on the list is seeking a good book or two that discusses the similarities between the Avesta and Rig Veda. Might any of you have suggestions? Many thanks.
