Almut Hintze is Zartoshty Brothers Professor of Zoroastrianism at SOAS, University of London, Co-Chair of the SOAS Shapoorji Pallonji Institute, and Fellow of the British Academy. She specialises in Zoroastrianism and the tradition of its rituals and texts, of which she has published several editions. In 2016–2023, she directed a collaborative project on the Multimedia Yasna, funded by European Research Council with an Advanced Investigator Grant, to produce an interactive film of a complete performance of the Yasna ritual, electronic tools for editing Avestan texts, and a text-critical edition, translation, commentary and dictionary of the Avestan Yasna. She is currently directing a second ERC project (2024–2028) to investigate the ritual tradition of the Avesta in India. The project team films the performance of a full Visperad ceremony, provides a critical edition of the Sanskrit translation of the Yasna, and studies the interpretation of Avestan rituals in Gujarati language sources.
