by Ed. C. Rajendran

-This volume brings together the papers presented in the seminar on Panini and modern Semantics by eminent linguists logicians and grammarians at a seminar organised by the Sahitya Akademi. The tipics discussed at the seminar were if a wide range from karaka theory to the computer compatibility of sanskrit and from socio lingustics to structural grammar. Here the manifold conceptual domains of Paninian grammer are being subjected to meaningful explorations. This collection opens up possibilities for a dialectical interaction between conventional and formal grammar and semantics.
