Announcements

  • The Zotero library underlying the CEToM bibliography is now public and can be viewed here.
  • We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Thomas Oberlies and Pratik Rumde from the Seminar für Indologie und Tibetologie of the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen for providing our project with scans of the nachlass of Wilhelm Siegling. The nachlass includes letters to and from Siegling throughout his career that are of great importance to the history of the field of Tocharian studies. This material will be published on CEToM, accompanied by transcriptions of the letters, in the course of 2024.

Commentary

Parallel texts

PK AS 5B

Philological commentary

For the complete text and translation, see the parallel leaf PK AS 5B. Note that this fragment has more correct standard spellings.
n1 Even though PK AS 5B a 1 has ynauṣak instead of ynauṣkak, the latter form is the correct one, so that the correction proposed by Sieg/Siegling Sieg and Siegling 1983: 201, note 6 is unnecessary.
n2 The restoration wnol(ym)i given in Sieg and Siegling 1983 has to be a typo for wnol(m)i.
n3 Instead of takarṣke 'graceful', the parallel text PK AS 5B b1 has pautarṣke 'respectful'.

Remarks

The original manuscript is missing. It contains the stanzas 24-28 of the Udānastotra in the short version. Translation: see PK AS 5B.
