Trissur - A Sanskrit grammar written by German born
grammarian, lexicographer and philologist Jesuit
missionary Fr Johann Ernst Hanxleden, popularly known as
Arnos Padre, was released in Belgium.
The over 300-year-old work, considered one of the
earliest missionary grammars in Sanskrit, was released on
April 10, Fr Roy Thottathil SJ, Director of Arnos Padre
Academy in Thrissur, said.
He told PTI that he received an official communication in
this regard from Prof Christphe Vielle and Prof Toon Van
Hal of the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium.,
editors and publisher of the book.
The 88-page manuscript of 'Grammatica Grandonica' was

recovered last year by Hal from a Carmelite monastery's
library in Montecompatri (Rome), Thottathil said.
Born at Ostercappeln near Osnabruck in Hanover, Germany,
Hanxleden arrived in India on December 13, 1700, as a
Jesuit missionary.
