About the Book

English summary: This volume is a tribute to Mauro Maggi, celebrating his distinguished career and significant contributions in the fields of Iranian, Indo-Aryan, and Central Asian philology and linguistics. It features a diverse collection of papers presented by colleagues, former students, and friends, reflecting the broad spectrum of Mauro Maggi's research interests. Along with an appreciation of the dedicatee and a comprehensive bibliography of his publications up to 2024, the book comprises twenty-nine articles. The main body of the volume focuses on various themes related to Khotanese and Central Asian languages and texts, approached from multiple perspectives - philologically, linguistically, etymologically, metrically, and interlinguistically. These studies explore the evolution of linguistic forms and structures, text edition and exegesis, translation techniques, and the transmission of cultural traditions across different regions and languages. Religious (primarily Buddhist), literary, and non-literary texts preserved in Central Asian manuscripts are also examined, not only from the perspective of Old and Late Khotanese, but also considering Sanskrit, Gandhari, Manichaean and Buddhist Sogdian, Tumshuqese, Tocharian A and B, Old Uigur, Chinese, and Tibetan. A selection of articles is dedicated to Western Iranian languages and texts, featuring discussions on textual analysis, narrative structures, linguistic description, and language contact. Complementing these are contributions on Zoroastrian traditions, delving into eschatological themes and mythological narratives. The volume also includes newly edited and translated literary and non-literary texts, providing fresh material for scholars and enriching the existing body of knowledge. This collection not only honours Mauro Maggi's extensive scholarly contributions but also serves as a valuable resource for researchers in Iranian, Indo-Aryan, and Central Asian studies. It will be of interest and value to scholars of Iranian philology and linguistics, as well as those in Indo-European linguistics, Central Asian philology, and Buddhist literature. Through this comprehensive tribute, the volume underscores the lasting impact of Mauro Maggi's work and his enduring legacy in the field. German description: Dieser Band ist eine Hommage an Mauro Maggi und wurdigt seine herausragende Karriere und seine bedeutenden Beitrage auf dem Gebiet der iranischen, indoarischen und zentralasiatischen Philologie und Linguistik. Er enthalt eine vielfaltige Sammlung von Beitragen von Kollegen, ehemaligen Studenten und Freunden, die das breite Spektrum von Mauro Maggis Forschungsinteressen widerspiegeln. Neben einer Wurdigung des Widmungstragers und einer umfassenden Bibliographie seiner Veroffentlichungen bis 2024 umfasst das Buch neunundzwanzig Artikel. Der Hauptteil des Bandes befasst sich mit verschiedenen Themen im Zusammenhang mit khotanesischen und zentralasiatischen Sprachen und Texten, die aus verschiedenen Perspektiven - philologisch, linguistisch, etymologisch, metrisch und interlinguistisch - betrachtet werden. Diese Studien befassen sich mit der Entwicklung sprachlicher Formen und Strukturen, mit Textedition und Exegese, mit Ubersetzungstechniken und mit der Weitergabe kultureller Traditionen in verschiedenen Regionen und Sprachen. Religiose (vor allem buddhistische), literarische und nicht-literarische Texte, die in zentralasiatischen Manuskripten erhalten sind, werden ebenfalls untersucht, und zwar nicht nur aus der Perspektive des Alt- und Spatchotanesischen, sondern auch unter Berucksichtigung von Sanskrit, Gandhari, Manichaisch und buddhistischem Sogdisch, Tumshuqese, Tocharisch A und B, Alt-Uigurisch, Chinesisch und Tibetisch. Eine Auswahl von Artikeln ist den westiranischen Sprachen und Texten gewidmet, mit Diskussionen uber Textanalyse, narrative Strukturen, linguistische Beschreibung und Sprachkontakt. Erganzt werden diese durch Beitrage uber zoroastrische Traditionen, die sich mit eschatologischen Themen und mythologischen Erzahlungen befassen. Der Band enthalt auch neu edierte und ubersetzte literarische und nichtliterarische Texte, die den Wissenschaftlern neues Material liefern und den bestehenden Wissensbestand bereichern. Diese Sammlung wurdigt nicht nur die umfangreichen wissenschaftlichen Beitrage von Mauro Maggi, sondern dient auch als wertvolle Quelle fur Forscher in den Bereichen Iranistik, Indogermanistik und Zentralasienkunde. Sie ist sowohl fur Wissenschaftler der iranischen Philologie und Linguistik als auch fur solche der indoeuropaischen Linguistik, der zentralasiatischen Philologie und der buddhistischen Literatur von Interesse und Wert. Mit dieser umfassenden Wurdigung unterstreicht der Band die nachhaltige Wirkung von Mauro Maggis Arbeit und sein bleibendes Vermachtnis auf diesem Gebiet.
