Students who are primarily interested in
more recent and contemporary India must choose a modern
Indian language as the main language in their studies.
(Students of so-called Classical Indology, which concerns
itself with Indian antiquity, have Sanskrit as their main
language.) Although the Institut für Indologie und
Tibetologie strives to offer courses in several modern
Indian languages (for further information please see the
updates on the LMU’s offerings), the possibilities of
comprehensive guidance of the students are limited in our
small institute (every European institute of Indological
studies is small and limited in its possiblities), and a
comprehensive guidance can be offered for the southern
Indian language Kannada and only to a certain extent for
the northern Indian language Hindi. Please do not
assume that other languages and their associated
regional cultures can be represented in an academically
satisfying manner at our institute. It happens
repeatedly that students expect that an ‘institute of
Indology’ can treat the whole of India, which in view of
the enormous size of the Indian republic is plainly
impossible. Just as no institute in India offers
‘Europology’ including the cultural studies of entire
Europe, no single institute in Europe can treat the whole
of India. A brief characterization of Kannada, meant
primarily for students of the linguistic MA “Cultural and
Cognitive Linguistics” (CCL), is available for reading and
downloading here as a PDF file. An HTML
webpage can be found here.
Interested persons may also refer to the Wikipedia
webpages in German
and English
(and naturally in Kannada
and Sanskrit). |

Information about the use of Unicode-Fonts for Indological purposes on Apple computers with the Mac OSX operating system can be found here. This is not quite up to date, but it may be useful nonetheless.
