GUNDERT PORTAL

The University of Tübingen has made Hermann Gundert's writings accessible on the Internet.

Hermann Gundert's estate contains printed and lithographed books as well as small print in Malayalam, Kannada, Tulu, Tamil, Telugu, Sanskrit and other languages.

There are also Indian manuscripts including some palm leaf manuscripts, copies and notebooks in various languages ​​by Hermann Gundert and his missionary colleagues.

All works from the 19th century in South Indian languages ​​that are in the holdings of the university library have also been included in the digitization, even if they do not come from the estate of Hermann Gundert in the narrower sense. English and German-language material from the pen of Gundert and his closest collaborators was also added.

ANNIVERSARY BAND

with presentations on Hermann Gundert's 200th birthday

HGG_Gundert200_Title_edited.jpg

for Hermann Gundert's 200th birthday

Hermann Gundert was a bridge builder between nations, social classes and religions. Gundert is popular among Indians to this day and is quoted a lot. This is how Keralese say when they don't know something: "Look it up in the Gundert."


Hermann Gundert is a prime example of how migration and a fruitful coexistence are possible even among groups that appear to be opposing to the outside world. What defines his personality has lost none of its topicality to this day and can be read in the anniversary volume published in 2014. The hardcover includes, among other things, presentations from the Gundert-Hesse seminar from May 2014 in Calw as well as pictures from exhibitions on Hermann Gundert. In addition to seminars and exhibitions, the city of Calw held another colorful bouquet of events this Gundert year.


The anniversary band can be ordered from us [single price 10, - € plus shipping].
