Book Description
Description: This Sanskrit Grammar h planned on different model from those existing already. The objects in preparing this grammar were to make a presentation of the language as they show themselves in use in the literature and as they are laid down by the native grammarians. The grammar also includes the forms and constructions of the older languages as found in the Vedas and the Brahmanas. The author has also made use of other Vedic texts and various works of Brahmana period, both in printed and in manuscript form. The author has treated the language throughout as an accented one, omitting nothing of what is known respecting the nature of the Sanskrit accent, its changes in combination and inflection and the tone of the individual words. Thus the grammar is consistent with the teachings of linguistic science. He has also discarded a few of the long-used and familiar divisions and terms of Sanskrit grammar. But the care has been taken to facilitate the transition from the old to the new, and the changes, ft is hoped, will commend themselves to unqu alified acceptance. For the practical requirement of the learner of the language the author has attempted to use different sizes of type to make the work as usable by one where object is to acquire a knowledge of the classical Sanskrit. A historical treatment of the facts of language has been made within the limits of the language itself.

Imagining the East
Author: Erik Reenberg SandPublisher:
ISBN: 0190853883
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
The essays in Imagining the East explore how Theosophists during the formative period imagined the religions and cultures of the East. The authors examine the relationship of such representations to orientalism, the history of ideas, politics, and culture at large and discuss how these esoteric or theosophical representations mirrored conditions and values current in nineteenth-century mainstream intellectual culture. The essays also look at how the early Theosophical Society's representations of the East differed from mainstream 'orientalism' and how the Theosophical Society's mission in India was distinct from that of British colonialism and Christian missionaries.
