Dear Colleagues,

The IASS (International Association of Sanskrit Studies) initiated this Fellowship in 2019 and it is a pleasure now to be able to announce it again for next year, 2023.

Any paying member of the IASS is eligible for the HRF, if the scholar has received a PhD in Sanskrit or allied studies in the last five years.

The HRF is for research work to be conducted in South Asia for a period of at least two weeks in any field related to Sanskrit and allied studies. If travel in 2021 becomes impossible because of Covid-19, an alternative may be proposed, for example, an online conference with experts in India in the chosen field.

The Honorary Research Fellowship, valued at 1000 Euros, will be announced annually, providing the IASS budget is able to sustain the expense.

The DEADLINE for the written project proposal is 31 DECEMBER 2022. Please submit proof of IASS membership for this year 2022: scan of email or receipt from the Treasurer of the IASS.

Please send all proposals and/or queries to Associate Professor McComas Taylor of the IASS:
McComas.Taylor@anu.edu.au
