Book Overview

English summary: This introduction to classical Sanskrit, based on teaching practice in introductory courses at universities, provides a basic knowledge of classical Sanskrit in 37 lessons and exercises. The scope of the grammatical content corresponds approximately to that of older textbooks (such as A.F. Stenzler's Elementarbuch der Sanskrit-Sprache, elementary book of Sanskrit language). However, the grammatical explanations are much more detailed and do not require any previous knowledge of classical languages (such as Latin or Greek). To make the rather complex morphology more easily accessible, numerous diagrams have been provided to act as teaching aids. The exercises, that draw on the pool of sayings and quotations in older textbooks, even provide sufficient examples of the use of the aorist, injunctive mood and precative - in contrast to most other introductions to Sanskrit. Working through the textbook either through self-study or in a two-semester course at university will prepare the student for the reading of classical Sanskrit works. German description: Die Einfuhrung in das klassische Sanskrit, die aus der Unterrichtspraxis universitarer Einfuhrungskurse hervorgegangen ist, vermittelt in 37 Lektionen mit Ubungen die Grundkenntnisse des klassischen Sanskrits. Der Umfang des grammatischen Stoffs entspricht in etwa dem alterer Lehrbucher (wie z.B. A.F. Stenzlers "Elementarbuch der Sanskrit- Sprache"). Allerdings sind die grammatischen Erlauterungen sehr viel ausfuhrlicher und setzen keinerlei Vorkenntnisse in klassischen Sprachen (wie Latein oder Griechisch) voraus. Um einen leichteren Zugang zu der recht komplexen Formenlehre zu ermoglichen, werden viele Diagramme als didaktische Hilfsmittel eingesetzt. Das Ubungsmaterial, das sich aus dem Fundus an Kunstsatzen und Zitaten alterer Lehrbucher rekrutiert, bietet - im Gegensatz zu den meisten anderen Sanskrit-Einfuhrungen - auch noch genugend Anwendungsbeispiele fur Aorist, Injunktiv und Prekativ. Wer das Buch im Selbststudium oder in einem 2-semestrigen Kurs an der Universitat durcharbeitet, besitzt die notigen Voraussetzungen, um sich der Lekture klassischer Sanskritwerke widmen zu konnen.

Gumbo YaYa-a nice little book

I read this book first years ago. Fascinating Book. However, when reading the first chapter about the Black Mardi Gras one must understand that this was written many, many years ago and no longer reflects the Black Louisianian. As for the rest of the book: Most enjoyable! If you have any interest in Louisiana folklore, you'll cherish it. I do. It's why I ordered another when mine went missing.

The essential history of Southeastern Louisiana....

When I was a child, a trip to the local library always meant a romp through the "Local Interest" section. I have always been enamored of the area that I grew up in. From hearing the stories of "loup garous" (werewolves) in the swamp to the tales of Jean Lafitte's pirate bands running amok in the swamps from my grandparents and great-grandparents, I came to appreciate the rich and diverse cultural history of the area. Gumbo...
