Dr. C.R. Swaminathan was from Palghat in Kerala, an orthodox aristocratic household. His M.A. was in Sanskrit. He completed his M.A. in Sanskrit in 1950, and received the degree of Madras University M. Litt under Dr. V. Raghavan.
This is the first time that a complete critical edition of Satapathabrahmana from the Kanva School for the Sukla Yajurveda is published. This edition takes into account readings in several other manuscripts in addition to those in the Telugu script published edition. Prof. Caland did not have access to these manuscripts when he created a critical edition of the first seven Kandas. This is the first attempt to provide an English translation. The texts of the Satapathas of the Madhyandina School and Kanva School are not significantly different from Kandas VIII to Kandas XVI. Prof. Eggeling has also translated the former. Still a fresh attempt at translating the latter portion was felt necessary as a result of detailed discussions with traditional scholars who are actively engaged in Srauta sacrificialperformances. Additional features include textual notes that support the selection of certain readings, a section under Vimarsa which discusses selected topics. This section also includes an exhaustive list of contents and Brahmana-wise. This edition has many advantages, including the guidance and suggestions of Srautayagas experts.
