James Wyatt The end of another legendary party in Kabul, 2009
James Wyatt, b. 1982, Exeter, England, is a doctoral student in the Department of the Languages and Cultures of South Asia at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. His thesis, for which he received a Whitney-Johnson Fellowship to aid his research in India, focuses on medieval Sanskrit treatises on phonetics and phonology. Alongside philological concerns, it examines ways in which grammatical texts of this period interacted with the development of literary cultures and religious communities. At SOAS he tutors third-year undergraduate and M.Phil post-graduate students in Sanskrit texts including excerpts from the Padamañjari and the Narayaniyam; he also takes a seminar on Sphoáša theory in the Indian grammatical tradition. Outside of his doctoral studies he has developed an interest in Pashto and is a keen rock climber.
