About

Johannes Bronkhorst (born 17 July 1946, Schiedam) is an Indologist and specialist on early Buddhism. He is emeritus professor at the University of Lausanne. After studying Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam (B.Sc. 1968), he moved to India, where he turned to Sanskrit and Pali, first at the University of Rajasthan (Jaipur), then the University of Pune (M.A. 1976, Ph.D. 1979). In Pune he read with traditional Sanskrit scholars specializing in Sanskrit grammar and philosophy. Back in the Netherlands, he did a second doctorate (1980) at the University of Leiden. Having worked for research projects funded by the Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek, he was appointed, in 1987, to the position of Professor of Sanskrit and Indian studies at the University of Lausanne. He retired in 2011.
