''The Indian Antiquary, A journal of oriental research in archaeology, history, literature, language, philosophy, religion, folklore, &c, &c,'' (subtitle varies) was an important journal of original research relating to India, published between 1872 and 1933. The journal was designed to enable the sharing of knowledge between scholars based in Europe and in India.〔(Prospectus ) in ''The Indian Antiquary'', Part 1, 5 January 1872, p. 1.〕〔"The Indian Antiquary" in ''The Antiquaries Journal'', Vol. 2, No. 2, April 1922, p. 148.〕 Volumes for 1925 to 1932 were "published under the authority of the Council of the Royal Anthropological Institute" (1933, not). ==History== The journal was founded by the archaeologist James Burgess CIE as a private venture,〔Temple, Richard Carnac. (1922) ''(Fifty years of The Indian Antiquary )''. Mazgaon, Bombay: B. Miller, British India Press, p. 3.〕 though no contributor or editor was ever paid for their work. On the contrary, the journal was a drain on the financial resources of the publishers.〔 Burgess was the first editor and he continued in that role until the end of 1884 when failing eyesight forced him to hand over to John Faithfull Fleet and Richard Carnac Temple.〔 The late nineteenth century was marked by a great increase in the number of local historical societies in India and a similar increase in the number of Indians who could speak and write English, to the extent that by the 1920s the entire journal could have been filled with work by Indian contributors.〔 Despite the evident demand for the ''Antiquary'', however, its first incarnation did not long survive Richard Temple's death in 1931 and it ceased publication in 1932. In 1922, Temple had published in Bombay a volume entitled "Fifty years of 'The Indian antiquary' ". The ''New Indian Antiquary'' was published between 1938〔(''New Indian Antiquary'' ) South Asia Archive, 2014. Retrieved 30 May 2014.〕 and 1947, and the ''Indian Antiquary'' (described as the "third series") between 1964 and 1971.〔British Library catalogue search 29 May 2014.〕 (Volumes 14 to 62 of the original ''Antiquary'' were described as the "second series") The journal is no longer produced. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Indian Antiquary」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
