The Avesta Reader, First Series: Easier Texts, Notes, and Vocabulary is a book written by Abraham Valentine Williams Jackson and published in 1893. The book is a collection of texts from the Avesta, the sacred scriptures of Zoroastrianism, which is one of the world's oldest surviving religions. The texts included in this volume are considered easier to read and understand than some of the more complex texts found in the Avesta.The book is designed to provide readers with a comprehensive introduction to the Avesta and Zoroastrianism. It includes detailed notes on the texts, as well as a vocabulary section to aid in understanding the language used in the texts. The book is intended for students of religion, history, and linguistics who are interested in learning more about the Avesta and its significance in the history of religion.Abraham Valentine Williams Jackson was an American scholar of Iranian languages and history. He was one of the first scholars to study Zoroastrianism and the Avesta in depth, and his work helped to establish the field of Iranian studies in the United States. The Avesta Reader, First Series: Easier Texts, Notes, and Vocabulary is one of his most important works and has been widely used as a teaching tool in universities and colleges around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
