1854‐1930 British Sanskrit scholar. He studied at the universities of Göttingen and Leipzig, and served as professor at Oxford University from 1899 to 1927. His philological studies of the Vedas are known for their steady and accurate style, and many of his works have become essential reading for future students. His works include an edited version of the Catalogue of the Katyayana, a catalogue of the contents of the Rig-Veda (1886), an edited and translated version of the Brihad-Devata, a catalogue of deities in the Rig-Veda (1904), and a descriptive grammar, Vedic Grammar (1910), which systematically classifies and covers all the mantras in the four Vedic texts.
