Hymns from the Rig-Veda by Jean Le Mee
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Exquisite! With the essential Dhatupatha used, the translation from Sanskrit is grammatically accurate. Inflection, as applied (notated), is another essential element for sounding, to be drawn closer to complete the true sound of the Knowledge, it is seldom seen to be used. A beautiful gem.

Beautiful coffee-table book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This volume translates twelve of the hymns of the Rig-Veda, printing one quatrain per page and alternating text and photographic pages. The quatrain is presented both in the original (Vedic) Sanskrit and in English. The result is a beautiful, meditative book that is only mildly an introduction to Vedic literature. As such I recommend it highly; as an introduction to the Vedas, I would refer you to Wendy D. O'Flaherty.
