R. Pischel (Richard Pischel)、Motilal Banarsidass、1･･･

This 1965 revised edition of Pischel’s Comparative Grammar of the Prakrit Languages is distinguished by its essential 204-page Index of Prakrit Words, revised by Bhaskara Jha, which elevates the work from theory to an indispensable philological reference. Pischel’s grammar remains the authoritative standard, covering Dramatic Prakrits, Jaina Prakrits, Apabhramsa, Paiśācī, and inscriptional Prakrits, with rigorous treatment of phonology, morphology, and syntax. Motilal Banarsidass, 1965, hardcover, ~641 pp, large 8vo. Condition: Good vintage original cloth, shelf wear, toned pages, clean text, slightly shaken binding. A superior letterpress edition valued by Indologists.

Takasaki Jikido、The Toho Gakkai、1987、300pp

This is a hardcover first edition of An Introduction to Buddhism by the respected Japanese scholar Takasaki Jikidō (1926–2013), known for his major work on Tathāgatagarbha doctrine. Published in 1987 by The Tōhō Gakkai in Tokyo and translated into English by Rolf W. Giebel, this book offers a clear and authoritative overview of Buddhist history and thought from a Japanese academic perspective. It remains a valuable reference for students of Indology and Buddhist Studies. Condition (Good / Fair): The beige cloth cover is clean and shows only light shelf wear. Inside, there are handwritten notes and underlining, including glosses where the previous owner added Japanese equivalents to English terms. The book has clearly been used for study, but the text remains fully readable. A reliable working copy for students and researchers who prioritize content over pristine condition.
