Publisher's Synopsis

First published in 2000. This title is Volume XII in the XIV-Volume set titled India: Language and Literature, part of Truber's Oriental Series. This collection present's the author's passion for language. As described in the introduction, Christian argues that Language would be tolerable without epigrammatic sayings, but if we wish to relish language, to point a moral or adorn a tale, we must flavour our speech with proverbs. This title holds six classes, dividing the proverbs into themes: human failings; worldly wisdom; peculiarities; social and moral subjects; agriculture, and animals.
