[INDOLOGY] Sanskrit Readers: overview

Thu Jun 22 21:13:05 UTC 2017

Here is the reader I grew up on at the University of Brussels:

Thumb, Albert, /Handbuch des Sanskrit, /II. Teil: /Texte und Glossar 
/von Richard Hauschild, Heidelberg, Carl Winter, 1953.
It fits in the category of general readers.

Best wishes,
Rosane Rocher
