A classic introduction to the Sanskrit language, this volume offers a clear and systematic guide to one of the world’s great literary and sacred tongues. Designed for beginners yet substantial enough for serious students, it leads the reader through the fundamentals of grammar, syntax, and vocabulary, supported by graded exercises and carefully chosen reading passages from classical sources.
Michael Coulson, a respected Oxford scholar of Sanskrit, brings both rigor and accessibility to the subject, while the association with Indologist Richard F. Gombrich reflects the book’s strong academic grounding. Beyond language mechanics, it opens a doorway to the intellectual and spiritual traditions of ancient India, including epic, philosophical, and religious texts. Ideal for self-study or classroom use, it remains a valued resource for anyone interested in linguistics, Indology, or the roots of Hindu and Buddhist literature.
