THE ORDINANCES OF MANU.
Translated from the Sanskrit, with an Introduction.
By the late A.C. BURNELL, Ph.D., C.I.E.
Completed and Edited by E.W. HOPKINS, Ph.D., of Columbia College, N.Y.
"This work is full of interest; while for the student of sociology and the science of religion it is full of importance. It is a great boon to get so notable a work in so accessible a form, admirably edited, and competently translated."—Scotsman.
"Few men were more competent than Burnell to give us a really good translation of this well-known law book, first rendered into English by Sir William Jones. Burnell was not only an independent Sanskrit scholar, but an experienced lawyer, and he joined to these two important qualifications the rare faculty of being able to express his thoughts in clear and trenchant English.... We ought to feel very grateful to Dr. Hopkins for having given us all that could be published of the translation left by Burnell."—F. Max Müller in the Academy.
