==Early life==
Charles Bruce was born in India in 1836, the son of Thomas Bruce, of Arnott, Kinross-shire, who worked for many years for the Honourable East India Company. His father was a descendant of the 9th Earl of Home. Young Charles was educated at Harrow and Yale University.〔 In early life he went to Germany, and devoted himself to the study of Oriental language and literature, mainly Sanskrit and Zend-Pahlavi. He assisted in preliminary work for the Great Sandskrit Dictionary by Otto von Böhtlingk and Rudolf von Roth (''Sanskrit Wörterbuch'', 7 vols., 1855–75), published by the Imperial Academy of St. Petersburg. It was through this connection he was able to get the academy to publish his work ''Die Geschichte von Nala'' (1862), an attempt to restore the original text of an episode in the Indian epic, the Mahabharata.〔 While serving as a librarian at the British Museum, he was in 1865 elected Professor of Sanskrit at King's College, Cambridge.〔
