Dear Jan,
Thank you for taking the time to convey this sad news to us. I never met
Prof. Angot, but I was very glad to have discovered his excellent and
encyclopedic book, Le sanscrit commentarial, shortly after it appeared.
I am very sorry to hear of his passing.
Cordially yours,
Brendan

Dear All,
I just received information that the French Sanskrit and Vedic scholar
Michel Angot passed away in his home town on 8 April 2024 at the age
of 75 (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Angot
<https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Angot>).
A number of his important publications are listed on his own website
(https://www.michelangot.com/
<https://www.michelangot.com/>),
which also mentions several other ones still under preparation.
Condolences to his family and to his numerous students in France and
world wide, who will always remember him for his enthusiastic and
inspiring teaching and lecturing, including in the domain of
theoretical and practical aspects of Vedic recitation.
