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. The Zend-Avesta, Part 1 (1880), translated by James Darmesteter, is Volume IV of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book, in three parts, focuses on Zoroastrianism. Part 1 contains the Vendidad, one of the oldest ecclesiastical codes. Composed in Avesta, an early Iranian language, the text focuses on the foundation of Zoroastrianism. This text is a valuable addition to the personal library of scholars and of those interested in Zoroastrianism.
