Publisher's Synopsis
The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume series, encompasses the seven non-Christian religions of Asia: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. Translated into English by authorities in their respective fields, these sacred texts have been edited by F. Max Muller and have profoundly influenced civilization. Pahlavi Texts, Part 4 (1892) translated by E. W. West, is Volume XXXVII of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book in five parts, focuses on Zoroastrianism and consists of twenty-one Nasks, or treatises, which serve as a guide to moral conduct in multiple facets of life. This text is a valuable addition to the personal library of scholars and of those interested in Zoroastrianism.
