Hardcover. Presumed first edition/first printing. ix, [1], 251 p. Oversized volume. 48 plates (with 83 images). Footnotes. Index of Stanzas. Vocabulary; Bibliography William Norman Brown (June 24 1892 April 22, 1975 was a distinguished Indologist, Sanskritist who established the first academic department of South Asian Studies in the U.S. and organized the American Oriental Society in 1926. He was the Professor of Sanskrit at the University of Pennsylvania for most of his academic career. The Editor also provided an Introduction and a Description fo the Paintings. This is one of the American Oriental Series edited by Edward H. Schafer. The Vasanta Vilasa manuscript which inspired this study was acquired by the Freer Gallery of Art in 1932 and was the first and most important manuscript of the work discovered as of 1962. IN 1982 the Diwan Bahadur Keshavalala Harsadaraya Dhruva of Ahmadabad publsihed a paper on the Gujarate text of the Vasanta Vilasa from the manuscript that later came to the Freer. In this study, Dr. Brown has presented the text of both the recensions then known, including the Old Gujarati and the accompanying Sanskrit and Prakrit. Dr. Brown has made a reconstruction based on the two recensions. The last part of this work is devoted to the miniature paintings on the scroll. There is also an accompnying bibliography of the early Western Indiance School of painting, which these miniatures exemplify. Although finished in 1958, this scarce study was not published until 1962. A scholar with many interests, including the archaeology of the Indian subcontinent, University of Pennsylvania Professor W. Norman Brown (1892 1975) was one of the great institution builders for the study of India s past. On September 6, 1922, R. V. D. Magoffin of the Archaeological Institute of America wrote to Brown to appoint him their representative in India, expressing their hope that he might establish an American School of Classical Studies there. His appointment coincided with the earliest excavations at Mohenjo-daro one of India s most ancient cities and the discovery of the Indus or Harappan Civilization. But as an American, Brown faced stiff opposition, as so-called foreign archaeologists were not welcome to excavate in British India. The Viceroy, Lord Curzon, summed it up succinctly when he declared, We will excavate our own sites. Yet despite this bias, Brown successfully proposed the establishment of The School of Indic and Iranian Studies, and received a favorable reception from the Government of India in 1927 28. W(illiam) Norman Brown, founder of the first academic department of South Asian Studies, spent the early part of his life in India at Harda and Jubbulpore, Central Provinces. He was sent back to the United States for an education in 1905. Brown attended Hiram College Preparatory School, 1905-1907 and Hiram College, 1908; he transferred to Johns Hopkins, majoring in Greek, and received his Ph.D. in 1916 for his work on Sanskrit under Maurice Bloomfield. From 1916 to 1919 Brown held the position of the Harrison Research Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania. From 1919 to 1922 Brown held the Johnston Fellowship at Johns Hopkins and from 1922 to 1924 professorship of English at the Prince of Wales College in Jammu, India. Unable to secure a permanent position, Brown filled several fellowships and teaching posts until 1926 when he was awarded the chair of Sanskrit at the University of Pennsylvania. From this point forward Brown worked tirelessly to enhance study of the South Asia subcontinent. Brown organized the American Oriental Society in 1926 (which was absorbed by the American Council of Learned Societies in 1930). By 1936, he was successful in obtaining funding from this group to support the Chanhu-Daro excavation. World War II provided Brown with the unique opportunity to establish a center at Penn to train soldiers in the language and culture of the India area. By the summer of 1947 Brown's summer program, "India: A Program of Regional Studies" was being offered.
