Dear All,    Thanks for these quite instructive data. I do not need to add the two handbooks (manuel) of Bergaigne, because it has already been done. I note in passing that the Vedachrestomathie (Berlin, 1885) by Alfred Hillebrandt (which I have at home in original copy) was considered as very good in his time, and was even recommended by Geldner in class. I guess that one should add the following, concerning Sanskrit literature in the widest sense, for all genres: Louis Renou, Anthologie sanskrite. Textes de l'Inde ancienne traduits du sanskrit, Paris, Payot, 1961. It is quite comprehensive. It contains only translations and introductions, not the original texts, but it could still serve as model for any anthology. 
Best regards,    Georges-Jean Pinault

The first edition was by Lassen (I have a personal copy):

Lassen, Christianus, 1838. Anthologia sanscritica glossario instructa. In usum scholarum edidit Christianus Lassen. Bonnae ad Rhenum: Impensis H. B. Koenig. xv, 360 pp. >
> 
A second edition edited by Gildemeister came out in 1865:
Lassen, Christian, 1865. Anthologia sanscṛitica glossario instructa, in usum scholarum edita. (1. Aufl. Bonn 1838.) Denuo adornavit Joannes Gildemeister. Bonn: A. Marcus. xvi, 290 pp. > 
It was critically reviewed by Albrecht Weber, Literarische Central-Blatt 31 (1865): 810-811. The review is reprinted in Weber's Indische Streifen II (Berlin: Nicolaische Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1869): 292-296.

A third revised edition came out in 1868:
Lassen, Christian, 1868. Anthologia sanscṛitica glossario instructa. Denuo adornavit Ioannes Gildemeister. Editio altera novis curis retractata. Bonn: A. Marcus. xvi, 301 pp.    >

Dear all,
>
The conversations about Sanskrit Readers on-list and the many truly kind and helpful emails I received off-list suggested to me that an inventory of these books might be useful. Please find below all the Readers I am aware of, with pdf download links wherever available, or alternatively lists of the libraries that (according to WorldCat) hold a copy.

If anyone has anything to add to this list (more titles, more links, pdfs, other information), I would greatly appreciate it if you could send it to me, and in a few weeks' time, I will send a more complete version of this inventory to the Indology list.

All the very best,
