Description

This volume is dedicated to the 75th anniversary of Dr. Yaroslav V. Vassilkov, Chief Research Fellow in the department of South and Southwest Asia of the MAE, RAS. A world-renowned scholar, outstanding indologist, philologist, and ethnographer, he keeps up and expands the best traditions of the Saint Petersburg school of South Asian Studies. The volume contains multiple sections that reflect the scope of Prof. Vassilkov's fundamental research interests. Each section includes articles by Russian and international experts in the Indo-European and Vedic studies, ancient South Asian epics and culture, history of Indian philosophy and buddhology, ethnography and folklore of India, as well as the history of scholarship. Because Prof. Vassilkov has for many years been developing the methodology of the Russian school of historical and typological folklore research, special attention is paid to the study of the Indian epics.
