The pre-Classical form of Sanskrit is known as Vedic Sanskrit, with
the language of the RigVeda being the oldest and most archaic stage
preserved, its oldest core dating back to as far back as 1500 BCE or
earlier. This qualifies RigVedic Sanskrit as one of the oldest
examples of any Indo-Iranian language, and one of the earliest
attested members of the Indo-European languages, the family which
includes Sanskrit with English and most European languages.Classical Sanskrit is one of the oldest languages to emerge from
India. Preceded only by Vedic Sanskrit, Prakrit, Pali and Sangam
Tamil, Classical Sanskrit was the lingua franca of Indian elite for
centuries.Right until the Islamic conquest of India, Sanskrit was not only the
medium of expression for the arts and philosophies but also the
administrative language.Some beautiful facts about Sanskrit
Sanskrit unites the Kashmiri with the Tamilian and the Assamese with
the Gujarati.Sanskrit holds a prominent position in Indo-European studies.
Sanskrit is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism and a literary
and scholarly language used extensively in Jainism and Buddhism.Sanskrit continues to be widely used in Jain, Buddhist and Hindu
religious rituals in the form of hymns and mantras.Sanskrit is listed as one of the 22 scheduled languages of India and
is an official language of the state of Uttarakhand.Sanskrit literature encompasses a rich tradition of poetry and drama
as well as scientific, technical, philosophical and religious texts.Sanskrit is still in used as the medium of instruction in a few
traditional institutions in India.Sanskrit studies have become more popular as more and more educated
Indians feel the need to explore their roots and what makes their
civilisation great.Sanskrit studies have progressed in modern India as there has been a
delinking of Sanskrit with a particular caste or religion.Sanskrit Bharati has been tremendously effective in promoting Sanskrit studies.
Classical Sanskrit is the standard register as laid out in the grammar
of Panini, around the 4th century BCE. Its position in the cultures of
Greater India is akin to that of Latin and Greek in Europe and it has
significantly influenced most modern languages of the Indian
subcontinent, particularly in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal.Sanskrit was spoken in an oral society, and the oral tradition was
maintained through the development of early classical Sanskrit
literature. When it was written, the choice of writing system was
influenced by the regional scripts of the scribes.Therefore, Sanskrit has no native script of its own. As such,
virtually all of the major writing systems of South Asia have been
used in writing Sanskrit manuscripts. Since the late 19th century,
Devanagari has become the de facto standard writing system for
Sanskrit publication, quite possibly because of the European practice
of printing Sanskritic texts in this script.The oldest written inscription in India appears on the famous Prakrit
pillar inscriptions of king Ashoka. These were in Prakrit, written in
the Brahmi script. These were written in the 3rd century BCE. The
earliest South Indian inscriptions in Tamil Brahmi, written in Sangam
Tamil, belong to the same period.The earliest known inscriptions in Sanskrit date to the 1st century
BCE. They are in the Brahmi script.When Sanskrit was written down, it was first used for texts of an
administrative, literary or scientific nature. Religious texts were
transmitted orally, through the guru-shishya parampara.The Government should be commended for publishing this excellent,
well-researched and low priced encyclopedia of Sanskrit literature.
