13th SECOND CIRCULAR |
[Next Section] - [ CONTENTS ]
INTRODUCTION
Besides repeating necessary information from the first circular, this second circular is intended to provide you with further information about the 13th World Sanskrit Conference, especially with regard to practical questions, such as full registration and accommodation.
Please complete the registration form and send it, together with the final abstract of your approved paper, to the conference secretariat by 28th February 2006. (Please note that the preliminary registration you should already have made is not the full registration!) The accommodation reservation form should if possible be returned at the same time but in any case no later than 31st May 2006. Both these forms can be downloaded from the conference web-site (http://www.arts.ed.ac.uk/sanskrit/13thWSC/) and returned via e-mail.
Please let us know if you have any special requirements which we should attend to. Please also inform any colleagues who have not received our mailings but would like to participate that full information is available on our web-site, or can be obtained by contacting us directly. The Organising Committee of the 13th World Sanskrit Conference looks forward to welcoming you to Edinburgh.
Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland which is, along with England, Wales and Northern Ireland, one of the four countries which make up the United Kingdom. Edinburgh, both Old and New Towns, was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1995; information on this and much else can be found at the city council web-site www.edinburgh.gov.uk/heritage. More recently still Edinburgh has also been declared the first City of Literature by UNESCO in October 2004 (see www.cityofliterature.com). Incidentally, it may not be clear from its spelling that the name is pronounced "Edin-burra", not "Edin-burg".
