Three New Edicts Of Asoka (1877)

""Three New Edicts of Asoka"" is a book written by Georg Buhler in 1877. The book is a translation of three newly discovered edicts of the Indian Emperor Asoka, who reigned from 268 to 232 BCE. Asoka is known for his contributions to Buddhism and his efforts to promote peace and non-violence. The newly discovered edicts shed light on some of Asoka's lesser-known policies, such as his efforts to promote the welfare of animals and his encouragement of religious tolerance. The book provides a detailed analysis of the edicts and their historical context, as well as a discussion of their significance for our understanding of Asoka's reign and the history of ancient India. It is a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history of South Asia and the development of Buddhism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
