A Contribution Towards an Index to the Bibliography of the Indian Philosophical Systems (1859) by Fitzedward Hall is a key scholarly work that catalogs Indian philosophical texts. Based on holdings from the Benares Sanskrit College and other collections, it provides a comprehensive index of Sanskrit works related to Vedanta, Samkhya, and other schools. Hall’s bibliography reflects his deep engagement with Indian thought and serves as a vital reference for future studies. His contribution was instrumental in organizing Indian philosophical literature, making it an essential resource for scholars.
Fitzedward Hall (1825–1901) was an American Orientalist and philologist, known for his work on the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). After studying civil engineering, he moved to India in 1847, becoming the first American to edit a Sanskrit text. He contributed significantly to Sanskrit scholarship and English philology.
