À propos de l'auteur

Friedrich Max Müller was a prominent philologist and Orientalist born in 1823 in Berlin. He is best known for his work in comparative religion and linguistics, and his contributions to the study of ancient texts. Müller played a significant role in the field of Indology and was instrumental in introducing Indian philosophy and literature to the Western world. His lectures at the Royal Institution in London brought to light the richness of Indian culture and language, making him a key figure in the study of Eastern languages and their connection to Western thought.

Throughout his career, Müller published numerous works, including 'The Science of Language' and 'My Indian Friends', which reflect his deep interest in not only the languages but also the spiritual traditions of India. He believed in the importance of understanding different cultures and their languages to foster better communication and mutual respect among civilizations. His legacy continues to influence scholars and enthusiasts of linguistics and comparative religion today.
