Sinopsis:
The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume series, encompasses the seven non-Christian religions of Asia: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. Translated into English by authorities in their respective fields, these sacred texts have been edited by F. Max Muller and have profoundly influenced civilization. Pahlavi Texts, Part 1 (1880) translated by E. W. West, is volume V of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book in five parts, focuses on Zoroastrianism and contains the Bundahis, as well as the Shayast La Shayast. It provides an explanation of the creation of the world and rules related to sin and impurity. This text is a valuable addition to the personal library of scholars and of those interested in Zoroastrianism.
