I congratulate all those involved in the curriculum/ syllabus revision of the English courses taught at slbsrs Vidyapeetha who have made this anthology title An Anthology of Sanskrit Classics in English Translation possible. Beloved that this anthology which has carried out as per the vision of Professor Vachaspati Upadhyaya. Formerly Vice-chancellor the Vidyapeetha will be followed by another anthology on Sanskrit Classics in Adaptation. The work no doubt is very difficult.
I am happy to note that these course books are specially designed to serve the interest of and interest of our undergraduates. Since English is the language of opportunity and the language of the job market, it is in fitness of things that our students should be able to Sanskrit texts they study in English as well. At interviews and group discussions, they should be able to discuss in English the rich content they have student over their three years with us. I believe this anthology is a sure step in the right direction. With its emphasis on discussion, reading and writing, it will make our students confident users of English. Of course, much will depend on how it is taught, read and discussed in class. However, that should not be difficult because the anthology presents an admirable interactive format.
I once again congratulate the editors for this excellent innovative work. I am confident that our colleges and institutions teaching English to the students specializing in Sanskrit will wish to use this anthology.
I wish the course great success.
