Hardcover. Condition: New. 1291 pages : 22 cm. 2 Volumes. This grammar gives a detailed account of Pali phonology and morphology as found in the Theravada canonical texts. Drawing on the results of 150 years of scholarship, it aspires to provide a complete overview of the word-classes described and word-forms listed. For the first time, all grammatical forms attested in canonical Pali have been recorded and subsequently explained by meticulously tracing them back to (Vedic) Sanskrit and examining their development while providing extensive references to comparable features and phenomena of other Middle Indic languages. Various indexes make the grammar accessible for practical use. The comprehensive Conspectus of Verbs and Verb Forms which serves as an index of the verb forms contained in the grammar is also a valuable tool for those who wish to read and research original Pali texts.
