Thanks to the experts for enlightening all of us. Please keep posting the background of AIT.
To try and see firsthand what Jones was doing - I looked up the internet. Looks like the writings of Mr. William Jones has been published in 1993 as "The Collected Works of Sir William Jones" which contains 6240 pages!!! It is only printed by New York University Press, costs a grand, and is out of print. I have also searched the cataogues of libraries I have access to, and the book is not available.
Here is the info from NYUP. http://www.nyupress.org/books/The_Collecte...ts_id-2036.html
Any idea where his works can be accessed? And how come NYUP is publishing his works - Rather than UK or Indian presses??? Is that normal?
