T. W. Rhys Davids and J. Estlin Carpenter (Editors･･･

This is an essential academic edition of Volume II (Mahā-vagga) of the Dīgha Nikāya, the collection of the Buddha’s long discourses in the Sutta Piṭaka of Theravada Buddhism. Published by Luzac & Company for the Pali Text Society (PTS) in London in 1966, it is the fourth authoritative reprint of the critical text originally edited in 1903 by T. W. Rhys Davids and J. Estlin Carpenter. Rhys Davids is recognized as a foundational figure in Western Pali scholarship. Volume II contains the Mahā-vagga (The Great Division), including key texts such as the Mahāparinibbāṇa Sutta (DN 16), describing the Buddha’s final days, and the Mahāsatipaṭṭhāna Sutta (DN 22), detailing essential mindfulness practice. The book has a light cloth hardcover with minor external wear, notably fraying at the top spine, but the binding is intact and the text block is clean. This makes it a reliable, cost-effective resource for scholars, libraries, and serious students of Pali literature.
