The first western grammar about Sanskrit is in Latin written by

Father Heinrich Roth (1620-1668) during 1660-62. The grammar is

descriptive and shows great pedagogical skill. This grammar is

based on Panini. It remained in the manuscript form until 1988

when it was published in a facsimile edition in Leiden.

[ Ref: Valentina Stache-Rosen (1990):"German

Indologists", 2nd revised edition, Max Mueller Bhavan, New Delhi,

pp.1-2].

The first printed Sanskrit grammar from the West was

Bartholomaeo's 1790 edition.

 

What script is used in Father Roth's grammar:

Grantham or Nagari?

 

Does anyone know of Unicode working group

about Grantha script for Sanskrit.

 

Thanks,

N. Ganesan
