Our review's target is to explain how this work unequivocally aims at going beyond the strictly philological level of research, which however has been accurately carried out, in order to “concentrate on the metaphysical role of Agni” as a piece of evidence for the ancient “beginnings of abstract and general thought” in India and more generally in the ancient pre-Socratic world.
