Markandeya Purana

Eden Pargiter F.

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This translation of the Markandeya Purina being made for the Asiatic Society of Bengal naturally follows the edition of this work prepared by the Rev. Dr. K. M. Banerjea, and published in the Biblio theca Indica in 1862; yet other editions and some mss. Have been consulted and are referred to. The translation has been kept as close to the original as possible, consistently with English sense and idiom for a translation loses some of its interest and much of its trust worthiness, when the reader can never know whether it reproduces the original accurately or only the purport of the original. The time during which the work has been in hand has rendered it difficult to maintain one system of transliteration throughout but, in order to place the whole in a consistent state, the system established by the Royal Asiatic Society and approved by the Asiatic Society of Bengal has been adopted in the Index and in this Introduction.
