[INDOLOGY] A Dictionary of Pāli online

[Rupert Gethin]

Dear Colleagues,

The Pali Text Society is pleased to announce the availability of the first three volumes of A Dictionary of Pāli (covering a – bh) online on Gandhari.org<http://gandhari.org/> (https://gandhari.org/dop). The Dictionary is free for all to search and use.

A Dictionary of Pāli is an ongoing project of the Pali Text Society, entirely funded by the Society. The first three volumes are the work of Dr Margaret Cone and were published in hard copy in 2001, 2010, and 2020. The 4th and final volume is currently being prepared by Dr Martin Straube.

Preparing the three published volumes of the Dictionary for release online has itself been a task that has required considerable time, care, attention, and expertise. The Pali Text Society is particularly grateful to Dr Stefan Baums and Dr Andrew Glass for hosting the Dictionary on Gandhari.org<http://gandhari.org/>. There it joins the Pali Text Society’s earlier Pali-English Dictionary as well as a collection of other dictionaries of South Asian Buddhist languages (Sanskrit, Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit, and Gāndhārī), all of which can be conveniently used side by side. The Society hopes that the scholarly community will find the online Dictionary useful.

Hard copies of the 3 published volumes (as well as other PTS publications) are available for purchase via the PTS website (https://palitextsociety.org/). Please visit the site and consider becoming a member and supporting the PTS.

With best wishes,

Rupert Gethin
