The iconic "Manual on the Grammar of Classical Sanskrit," published by Professor Adriaan Scharpé in 1943, has supported generations of Indology students in their study of Classical Sanskrit. In our contemporary world, India is playing an increasingly prominent role, which explains the growing interest in South Asian languages and cultures. Because Sanskrit has a significant influence on modern Indian languages, there is a need for an updated edition that respects the original work.
This detailed grammar provides students with a solid foundation for learning the language, thanks to practice sentences with Dutch translations taken from Sanskrit classics. This makes it a valuable resource for both beginning and experienced Indologists, as well as for those interested in South Asian cultures.
With this initiative, the Department of Languages and Cultures - India at Ghent University emphasizes the importance of an in-depth study of this world, particularly of ancient Sanskrit. Intertaal acts as a reliable supplier, guaranteeing fast delivery, giving educational institutions and individuals easy access to this indispensable resource.
