Paul Thieme (1905–2001) German Ιndologist
- Paul Thieme (1905–2001) German Ιndologist and scholar of Vedic Sanskrit: "Vedas are noble documents not only of value and pride to India, but to the entire humanity because in them we see man attempting to lift himself above the earthly writing of epics."
| Paul Thieme was a German Ιndologist and scholar of Vedic Sanskrit.
In 1988 he was awarded the Kyoto Prize in Arts and Philosophy for
"he added immensely to our knowledge of Vedic and other classical
Indian literature and provided a solid foundation to the study of the history of Indian thought".
He received his doctorate in Indology in 1928 from the University of Göttingen, and habilitated there in 1932, from 1932 to 1935 he taught German and French at the University of Allahabad.
He taught at Breslau from 1936 to 1940, and received tenure at Halle in 1941, but in the same year he was drafted to the German army, where he worked as an interpreter; in 1945, he was captured by U.S. troops in Württemberg. After his release in 1946, he returned to Halle, where he remained until 1953, when he moved to Frankfurt for a professorship in Indo-European studies, against the will of the GDR authorities. From 1954 to 1960 he was in Yale, and from 1960 to his retirement in 1972 in Tübingen as professor for Religious studies and Indology.
