Course Information

Description

Continuation of Sanskrit 101A.

Sanskrit. It's easier than you think! Unlock the depth and complexity of South Asia in two semesters of study. In this course, students will gain mastery of the foundations of the Sanskrit language: the Devanāgarī writing system, correct pronunciation, all fundamental topics of grammar, basic writing and speaking. By the end of the academic year, students will be poised to read epic Sanskrit (the Mahābhārata and Rāmāyaṇa) with the aid of only a dictionary.

No auditors are permitted. Enrolled students must take the course for a letter grade.
