Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The increasingly scarce first French translation by Parraud of "The Bhagvat-Geeta, or Dialogues of Kreeshna and Arjoon; in Eighteen Lectures" by Charles Wilkins in English, published two years earlier in London in 1785. Abbot Joseph Pascal Parraud (Translator, 1752-1832), Charles Wilkins (Author, 1749-1836). Le Bhaguat-Geeta, ou Dialogues de Kreeshna et d'Arjoon ; contenant un Précis de la Religion et de la Morale des Indiens. Traduit du sanscrit, la langue sacrée des Brahmes, en anglais, par M. Charles Wilkins : et de l'anglais en français, par M. Parraud, de l'Académie des Arcades de Rome. A Londres, et se trouve à Paris, chez Buisson, 1787, Octavo, 6-CLXII pp. and 180 pages, in contemporary binding. The English translation of the Bhagavad Gita is the greatest accomplishment of notable Orientalist Wilkins, founder of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. Published by the East India Company in 1785 under the patronage of Governor General Warren Hastings, this translation had a profound impact on some of the greatest Western intellectuals of the time, including Carlyle and Emerson. Soon after, efforts were underway to translate this extraordinary text into other languages, this French translation being the pre-eminent of all. As a beautiful testament to skilled pre-Revolutionary French printing, this edition by Parisian publisher Buisson bears the signatory hallmark and increasing importance of oriental religion, specifically Hinduism, within the literary minds of France. The Bhagvat Geeta is part of the sixth book of the Mahabharata, the great Indian epic. During the battle of Kurukshetra, the Lord Krishna (friend and charioteer of Arjun) offers words of wisdom to the Pandava prince Arjun and this set of philosophical dialogues between them is a central text of Hinduism. The poem consists of 700 Sanskrit verses divided into 18 chapters (here, lectures ). In Hinduism, Krishna is regarded as the human incarnation of God Vishnu. One may recall the famous Radha-Krishna love-songs and stories that form the bedrock of romantic literature in Sanskrit and other languages such as Maithili, Bengali etc. Condition- In beautiful contemporary binding, Pages are remarkably clean; a beautiful, collector's copy in very good condition.…

Pas de couverture. Condition: Moyen. Edition originale. Charles WILKINS (auteur) | PARRAUD (traducteur) [Bhagavad Gîtâ] Le Bhagvat-Geeta, ou Dialogues de Kreeshna et d'Arjoon ; contenant un Précis de la Religion et de la Morale des Indiens. Traduit du sanscrit, la langue sacrée des Brahmes, en anglais, par M. Charles Wilkins : et de l'anglais en français, par M. Parraud, de l'Académie des Arcades de Rome. A Londres, et se trouve à Paris, chez Buisson, 1787 1 volume in-8 (20,1 x 12,9 cm) de (4)-CLXII pp. et 180 pages. Exemplaire dérelié, tranches rognées. Le corps d'ouvrage est encore solidement relié. Sans reliure. Prévoir une reliure à la bradel. Quelques petits manques de papier en marge extérieure des deux premiers feuillets loin du texte. Papier frais, non laminé (typographie marquée - relief). Complet. Edition originale de la traduction française. La traduction française est de l'abbé Joseph Pascal Parraud (1752-1832). La première édition anglaise par Wilkins a paru deux ans auparavant (1785). L'orientaliste anglais Charles Wilkins (1749-1836) fut le premier à donner une traduction partielle du Mahabharata, une des parties de la "Bhagavad gita" (Le chant du bienheureux) dont les plus anciennes traces remontent au IIe siècle A.C., sorte de dialogue philosophique entre le prince guerrier Arjuna et son ami Krishna, réincarnation de Vishnu, qui montre la conduite à avoir pour atteindre le divin. "S'il est une Nation, qui, par son antiquité, par les précieux monuments qu'elle, possède, par la sagesse & la douceur de ses institutions, par la pureté de ses dogmes primitifs, mérite l'attention du Philosophe ; c'est sans doute la Nation Indienne , dont les Sages ont été de tous temps en vénération par leurs connaissances, même parmi les peuples les plus instruits. Le voyage de Zoroastre dans l'Inde, celui de Pythagore quelques siècles après, c'est-à-dire vers le temps de Servius-Tulllus, sixième Roi de Rome ; la peine que prirent ces deux grands Hommes de s'instruire de la Religion et de la Philosophie des Brahmes ; les dogmes qu'ils en ont évidemment adoptés, prouvent assez que dès longtemps l'Hindoustan était renommé pour les sciences chez les peuples de l'Asie." (Discours préliminaire) Les 162 premières pages du volume (chiffrées en romain) contiennent un long Discours préliminaire, un Extrait du Shaster, donné par Henri Lord (Lord's Discovery of the Banian religion). La suite contient une Lettre de M. Hastings à M. Nathaniel Smith, écuyer ; la Préface de M. Wilkins et le Bhagvat-Geeta à proprement parler. "La Mahâbhârata et le Râmâyana, deux exemples de grandes épopées d'Inde et d'Asie du Sud, sont des textes fondateurs de la littérature et la culture indiennes. Ils sont reconnus pour leur riche narration, leurs enseignements moraux et leur profondeur philosophique. Ces épopées se transmettent d'abord par la tradition orale pendant des siècles avant d'être transcrites à l'écrit, et elles inspireront également un nombre infini d'adaptations, d'interprétations et de traductions dans diverses cultures et langues. Les voyageurs, administrateurs, missionnaires et érudits français installés en Inde comptaient parmi ceux qui recherchaient et collectaient les manuscrits d'épopées indiennes. Guidée par son obsession de vaincre la concurrence britannique, la France a également traduit les épopées indiennes en français. La retraduction de 1787, par l'Abbé Parraud, de la traduction anglaise de la Baghavad-Gita signée Charles Wilkins en est un exemple." (Bnf, en ligne, Epopées d'Asie du Sud) Bon exemplaire à relier de nouveau (bradel) de ce livre rare et important pour l'histoire de l'Inde ancienne et de la religion hindouiste en occident. NOTE : Le prix demandé tient compte de la reliure qui est à refaire.…
