Preface To The Edition Of 1970
Franz Kielhorn, an uncontested master in the field of Indian linguistic sciences, published in 1870, i. e. exactly hundred years ago, the first edition of his famous grammar of ‘d-al Sanskrit. Based on his critical studies of Indian grammar, transferred in this work the linguistic data from of the Vaiyakaranas directly into the frame of our modern descriptive grammar.
For many year the work has been sold out.
As this ok as the most authoritative grammar of classical Sanskrit in English is indispensable for Sanskrit studies (the German version being re-published in 1965 in Germany), its reprint was urgently needed.
Now, that Kielhorn’s Grammar is here again offered to the public our thanks are due to the Chowkhamba Sanskrit Series office for having made it available.
