Vedic Metre in its Historical Development c4.21

c4.21

To the writers already named I am indebted, not only in regard to the matters specifically referred to, but also for suggestions and collections of material which extend over a large part of my work. There are many others to whom I am under obligations in some one or more particulars for their contributions to this subject either in their publications or in private communications. Such are RUDOLF ROTH (to whose memory I venture to dedicate this work as one of his old pupils, and to whose principles of Vedic interpretation I mostly adhere), A. WEBER, A. LUDWIG, R. KÜHNAU, R. PISCHEL, KARL GELDNER, A. MEILLET, A. A. MACDONELL, E. W. HOPKINS, and EMIL SIEG. I fear the references given to these writers in the text very imperfectly represent these obligations.
