Institute for Asian and African Studies Aasian ja Afrikan kielten ja kulttuurien laitos Department of South Asian and Indo-European Studies Personnel Current research 12th World Sanskrit Conference Helsinki, Finland, 13-18 July, 2003 Historical background This subject was until recently called Sanskrit and Comparative Indo-European Linguistics at the University of Helsinki, in accordance with traditions going back to the early 19th century. Sir William Jones, one of the European pioneers in the study of Sanskrit, the classical language of India, noted in 1786 that Sanskrit bears to both Greek and Latin "a stronger affinity both in the roots of verbs and the forms of grammar than could possibly have been produced by accident; so strong indeed that no philologer could examine them at all without believing them to have sprung from some common source, which perhaps no longer exists"; he added Gothic, Celtic and Old Persian as other members of the same family, which has been called "Indo-European" since 1813. In 1816 Franz Bopp demonstrated the genetic affinity of these languages with a detailed comparative study of their verbal inflection; this is generally considered to mark the beginning of comparative linguistics. Sanskrit began being taught at the University of Helsinki as early as 1835, but the first Professor in the subject was appointed only in 1875. This was Otto Donner, the founder of the Finno-Ugrian Society (for the comparative study of the Finno-Ugric languages), and his successors include J. N. Reuter, G. J. Ramstedt (who taught Sanskrit in addition to his own field of study, Altaic linguistics) and Pentti Aalto. Nowadays South Asian Studies and Indo-European Studies are taught as two different fields of study, both actually rather wide-ranging, although (due to the scarcity of professorships) they still nominally form one subject.
