On the Fourfold Root of the Principle of Sufficient Reason, and On the Will in Nature: Two Essays (revised edition)
Schopenhauer, Arthur
Sufficient reason; Will
The same author's "Anecdota Palica," 1845.--[17.
"Dhammapadam," palice edidet et latine vertit Fausböll, Hovniæ,
1855.--Add. to 3rd ed.]--18. Asiatic Researches, vol. vi. Buchanan,
"On the Religion of the Burmas," and vol. xx. (Calcutta, 1839),
Part 2, contains three important articles by Csoma Körösi,
including Analyses of the Books of the Kandshur.--19. Sangermano,
"The Burmese Empire," Rome, 1833.--20. Turnour, "The Mahawanzo,"
Ceylon, 1836.--21. Upham, "The Mahavansi, Raja Ratnacari et
Rajavali," 3 vols. 1833.--22. _ejusd._ "Doctrine of Buddhism,"
1839, fol.--23. Spence Hardy, "Eastern Monachism," 1850.--24.
_ejusd._ "Manual of Buddhism," 1853. The two last books, written
after a twenty years' stay in Ceylon and from oral information
supplied by the priests there, have given me a deeper insight
into the essence of the Buddhist dogma than any other work. They
deserve to be translated into German, but without abridgement, for
otherwise the best part might be left out.--[25. C. F. Köppen, "Die
Religion des Buddha," 1857, a complete compendium of Buddhism,
compiled not only with great erudition and serious industry but
also with intelligence and insight from all the other works I have
mentioned above and from many more besides, which contains all that
is essential on the subject.--26. "The Life of Buddha," from the
Chinese of Palladji, in the "Archiv für wissenschaftliche Kunde von
Russland," edited by Erman, vol. xv. Heft 1, 1856.--Add. to 3rd ed.]
