Dear Colleagues,



I am pleased to announce the publication of



Berthold Delbrück, Altindische Syntax. Corrected and newly typset edition,
with an Index locorum to the Rigveda, by Andreas Pohlus.



Berthold Delbrück (1842-1922), the founder of comparative syntax of
Indo-European languages, published his Old Indian Syntax in 1888,
describing the stage of language that the grammarian Pāṇini calls Vedic,
that is, the language of the Vedic Saṃhitās and Brāhmaṇas. Delbrück
presents this with admirable thoroughness on the basis of the texts
available to him. First, he treats the basic sentence structure and word
order, and then examines the parts of speech in more detail. The whole is
always supported by extensive text excerpts, almost all of which are
translated, and is made accessible by a word, subject, and references
index. The present edition is a completely new edition, taking into account
Delbrück's own additions and corrections. The new edition follows the
transcription of the Sanskrit used today, and the occasional corrigenda and
addenda are marked as such.



Andreas Pohlus is a research associate at the Seminar for South Asian
Studies and Indology at the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg.
