Veda and Torah: Transcending the Textuality of Scripture

Cover
SUNY Press, 01.01.1996 - 765 Seiten
In this book, Barbara Holdrege has set a high standard for comparative work and has made an important contribution to both Hindu and Jewish studies. She has looked at Veda and Torah not simply as 'scripture, ' but as systems of meaning, symbol systems, each with its own affiliated meanings, each with its symbolic context, and each with its history of interpretation.
