The Gathas of Zarathushtra, Zoroaster: In Metre and Rhythm (1900)

Lawrence Heyworth Mills

The Gathas of Zarathushtra, Zoroaster: In Metre and Rhythm is a book written by Lawrence Heyworth Mills in 1900. The book is a translation of the Gathas, a collection of hymns in the Zoroastrian religion that were originally written in Old Avestan. Mills' translation is done in a unique way, as he attempts to preserve the original meter and rhythm of the hymns in his English translation. The book also includes an introduction to the Zoroastrian religion and its history, as well as an analysis of the Gathas themselves. Overall, The Gathas of Zarathushtra, Zoroaster: In Metre and Rhythm is a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the Zoroastrian religion and its sacred texts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
