Classical Tamil Summer School
ENGRAVING THE KING’S FAME: SANSKRIT PRA’SASTIS AND TAMIL MEYKKIIRTTISWorkshop on the tradition of royal eulogies found in Sanskrit and Tamil inscriptions
|
Programme
In the morning sessions we would all together read and translate the texts that will be discussed in the afternoon sessions. Ideally, each text should be presented by one of the participants, who would provide a text and a rough translation to the others. The outcome could be a volume of translations in English to be published in the Indological Series of Pondicherry. It might also include some of the discussions in the form of comments, parallels, etc. given to the texts.

Who can participate?
As before, we are looking forward to welcoming back a large number of our former participants. Apart from a number of students and colleagues who were not able to participate last time and who are especially warmly invited to come next year, anybody with a knowledge of the elements of the Classical language will be most welcome. This time there won't be a special level for beginners (sorry about that), but whoever feels the urgent need to participate nevertheless should contact us in time so they can get preparatory material.
