For Reviews of this elaborate work-see: Journal des Savans, 1771, Dec.; 1772, Mars et Mai. According to the Dabistan, Zerdusht or Zoroaster was born in a town in the province of Jibal, or Irak Ajamthro country of the ancient Parthians, and appeared as a religious reformer in the reign of Gushtap the Fifth, monarch of the Kyanian dynasty of the kingdom of Persia, and who by most historians, both ancient and modern, is identified with Darius Hystaspes. Chronologically, this account of him makes him to have been almost contemporary with the minor prophets of the Old Testament, Haggai and Zechariah, and a few years after the Hebrew prophets Ezekiel and Daniel, and the Greek philosopher and legislator Solon, the poets Mimnermus, Anacharsis, and Æsop, Anacreon and Simonides, and the Chinese philosopher Confucius, and to have lived shortly before Pythagoras, Heraclitus, and Eschylus. It was not doubted by the elegant translator of the Zend Avesta, M. Anquetil du Perron, that the Zend was the old language of Media, and that the books preserved in that very ancient language were the genuine works of Zerdusht or Zoroaster, and written in the fifth or sixth century before Christ; although some have thought that the Zend language was a dialect of the Sanscrit, introduced into Persia for religious purposes, and never spoken in any part of Persia. The learned Professor Rask, however, readily admits the conclusions arrived at by M. Anquetil du Perron, and is decidedly in favour of the genuineness and authenticity of the Zend. The language of the Cuneiform inscriptions of Persepolis, so far as yet discovered and deciphered by Professor Grotefend, institutes in his judgment a powerful argument in support of the opinion that the Zend was the real language of ancient Media. Zerdusht or Zoroaster has earned for himself a fair and just title to the name and character of a reformer and a philosopher."-Dr. W. Camps.
