This is an astrological book written in Alexandria in 149 by Yavaneśvara (King of the Greeks) in Sanskrit, and translated into Sanskrit by Sphujidhvaja of India in 269. Although it has been Indianized in many ways, it is extremely important as a book that introduced Western astrology in the Hellenistic period to India. Recently, an edited version and an English translation by D. Pingree have been published, and it is finally attracting attention. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
サンスクリットでヤバネーシュバラYavaneśvara(ギリシア人の王)と呼ばれる人物が149年にアレクサンドリアで著した占星術書を,269年にインドのスプジドバジャSphujidhvajaがサンスクリットに翻訳したもの。多くの点でインド化されているが,ヘレニズム時代の西洋占星術をインドに伝えた書としてきわめて重要である。最近ピングリーD.Pingreeによる校訂本と英訳が出版され,ようやく注目をあびるようになった。
