Notes On Aryan And Dravidian Philology

About the Book :-The author studied while young Mahrathi, Tamil, Telugu and Sanskrit for many years, and, after finishing his collegiate course of studies, learnt Kanarese, Malayalam, Hindustani, Bengali and Uriya. Having seen his taste for linguistic study, his teacher, recommended to him a comparative study of the languages, and he carried out the advice. This comparative method gave a fresh impetus to his study of languages and made the otherwise uninteresting and barren investigation of words and grammatical forms of languages very pleasant and fruitful. With this view he has written a series of volumes which treat of the Aryan and Dravidian languages alternately and of which this is the first. As the name of the book suggests, this is an academic book which critically analyses the grammatical and etymological affinities, and differences between the languages of the Aryan family, with those of the Dravidian stock. By Aryan it is understood by the author to include Latin, Greek, and English apart from the obvious Sanskrit, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. Occasionally the author draws upon words from the Semitic family to illustrate further similarities. Each word mentioned in a Group must be traced directly to the word from which it is derived and ultimately connected with the principal word which heads the Group. This multi-volume work is immensely good for all. About the Author :-M. Seshagiri Sastri was an Indian-born author from South India.
