Sanskrit, the classical language of India, has long been renowned for its beauty, subtlety and complexity. It is the key to the civilisational treasures of Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism, and provides direct access to a vast repository of literary, scientific and philosophical wisdom. At the ANU we seek to balance the traditional practice of textual reception—reading and grammar—with language production—speaking, chanting and singing—to provide a truly balanced curriculum. In Sanskrit 4, students will strengthen their grammar skills and enjoy further readings from the classics of Sanskrit literature.
This is a fast paced academic course at a University level.

Dive deeper into India’s classical language. Strengthen your grammar. Read and chant smoothly beyond beginners’ level. Enjoy classic Sanskrit literature, touching on the social and historical contexts of this language of ancient wisdom.
