Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Bengali Language It is very difficult to meet Sir George Grierson, for he has not chosen to cite authorities, nor has he adduced reasons in support of his propositions beyond what he has added at the end of his paper by way of his own signature. Where he has adduced reasons, he has rather stated new proposi tions in the name of reasons which stand equally in need of support. AS to the original cradle-land of the pre historic Aryans, nothing has yet been settled; and the Oldest record of the Aryans, the Vedas, being far from replete with evidence as to their original home and migra tory movements, the question relating to the appearance of Aryans in India is still a matter for careful inquiry and research. However, we do not hold Grierson responsible for the unscientific theory about the origin of the Aryans. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
