Department of Samskrit Language and Literature

The Sanskrit Language, whatever may be its antiquity, is considered to be more perfect than the Greek, copious than Latin and more exquisitely refined than either due to its wonderful structure. It is the nature of a spoken dialect that is undergoes constant changes.

The Sanskrit Language has been used for poetic and other literary works in all the periods of Indian history and continues to be so even today. In general, so much emphasis on the beauty and charm of Sanskrit Language is laid, it would only be proper to notice that Sanskrit Literature contains some wonderful ideas appealing to the modern thinking. The classes are being taken by efficient dedicated scholars of the department.

A Manuscript speaks of the past, reveals history, unfolds perspectives and reflects socio-cultural scenes of its time. Its contents are significant literarily, scientifically and historically. It form is fascinating Paleographically, calligraphically and technically. Thus, manuscripts are concrete examples of humanistic and artistic activities of the past. It may be mentioned that the formal aspect of a manuscript deals with structural analysis of elements related to the visual and aesthetic qualities. The department is fully committed to the revival of this ancient treasure.
