DESCRIPTION
Leonard Bloomfield described Panini's Astadhayayi (7th century BC) as 'one of the greatest monuments of human intellegence.' It is a complete, explecit and comprehensive grammar of both spoken and textual (compositional) Sanskrit. Most of the reputed and renowded Indian and foreign universities running courses on Indian knowledge systems, study it for its principles of analysis organisation and description. What is of great intrest is a theoritical framework that inform this grammar, a framework that has remarkable power to describe human languages, particularly the Indian languages.
