About the Book:-Most of Goldstuckers’s Minor contributions to Indian literature which have been gathered together in the two volumes of remains,” then issued were intended for the general literary Public. The Present re-issue comprises such of his contributions to quarterlies, Encyclopaedias, and other serials as touch upon questions of Indian life, Literature and antiquities, to the exclusion of all personal and controversial matter. It is hoped that these volumes may prove welcome to his personal friends and former pupils as a memorial of genial and instructive intercourse and possibly to a wider circle of students as an exposition of the views and opinions concerning India and her place in classical antiquity held by one to whom was assigned by universal consent a foremost place amongst the sanskrit scholars of his day About the Author:-Theodor Goldstücker (1821 –1872) was a German Sanskrit scholar. He was born of Jewish parents in Königsberg, Prussia. After attending the gymnasium of that town, he entered its university in 1836 as a student of Sanskrit. In 1838 he removed to Bonn, and, after graduating at Königsberg in 1840, proceeded to Paris; in 1842 he edited a German translation of the Prabodhacandrodaya by Kṛṣṇamiśra Yati (fl. c. 1050-1100), a standard text widely read by Sanskrit students in India. From 1847 to 1850 he resided at Berlin, where his talents and scholarship were recognized by Alexander von Humboldt, but where his political views caused the authorities to regard him with suspicion.[2] He was asked to leave Berlin during the revolutions of 1848 in the German states. In 1850 he moved to London at the invitation of H. H. Wilson In 1852 he was appointed professor of Sanskrit in University College London. He worked on a new edition of Wilson's Sanskrit dictionary, of which the first instalment appeared in 1856. But his work became infeasibly long and detailed, and publication of the dictionary ground to a halt. In 1861 he published his best known work Panini: his place in Sanscrit Literature. He was the founder of the Sanskrit Text Society (four volumes appeared); he was also an active member of the Philological Society,[2] of which he was president at the time of his death; and of other learned bodies.
