A Tradição Sânscrita entre Memética Védica e Cultura Literária
Junto a outras línguas clássicas como o latim, o grego, o hebreu, o árabe e o chinês, o sânscrito tem um importante papel a desempenhar no desenvolvimento de um novo humanismo, global e integrativo. É uma das poucas línguas antigas que tem uma evolução contínua e tradição que se estende aos dias de hoje. Esse artigo discute algumas ideias importantes relativas à natureza e à história do sânscrito, as quais têm aparecido na literatura dos últimos …
Linguistic Paradox and Diglossia
“We know that Middle Indian (Middle Indo-Aryan) makes its appearance in epigraphy prior to Sanskrit: this is the great linguistic paradox of India.” In these words Louis Renou (1956: 84) referred to a problem in Sanskrit studies for which so far no satisfactory solution had been found. Three issues will here be addressed in the light of references to ancient and classical Indian texts, Sanskrit and Sanskritic. A simple genetic model is indadequat…

Le Pravargya et le Saint-Graal
Le Pravargya est un rituel vedique de l'Inde ancienne, et le Saint-Graal constitue un theme important de la litterature chretienne du Moyen-Âge europeen. Le Pravargya vedique offrit le contexte rituel pour une tradition d'un savoir concernant les mysteres de la vie, de l'inspiration poetique, et du principe vital dans l'homme et dans l'univers. Ce savoir, on ne pourrait mieux l'exprimer que sous forme d'enigmes qui evoquent une vision du monde en…

On the Earliest Attestable Forms of the Pravargya Ritual
Cet article traite des formes les plus primitives du rituel Pravargya, l'un des tres rares rituels dont des references explicites se trouvent dans le RG-Veda, sauf le sacrifice-Soma qui y est fortement present. Le terme «pravargya» n'y est en fait jamais mentionne, mais celui de «gharma», melange de lait chaud et de babeurre, et l'offrande qui en est faite aux Asvins. Est egalement appele «gharma» dans le RG-Veda le recipient dans lequel on chauf…
The Ritual Pragmatics of a Vedic Hymn
The present paper explores the relation of the riddle hymn, Rgveda 1.164, with the Pravargya ritual, one of the few rituals that are explicitly referred to in the Rgveda, Starting from a few verses which have a well-established and generally acknowledged relation with specific episodes in the Pravargya ritual (about which we have detailed information only from later texts), this paper shows that several other enigmatic verses yield a convincing i…

The Emergence of Semantics in Four Linguistic Traditions
The Emergence of Semantics in Four Linguistic Traditions
The aim of this study is a comparative analysis of the role of semantics in the linguistic theory of four grammatical traditions, Sanskrit, Hebrew, Greek, Arabic. If one compares the organization of linguistic theory in various grammatical traditions, it soon turns out that there are marked differences in the way they define the place of ‘semantics’ within the theory. In some traditions, semantics is formally excluded from linguistic theory, and …
