ROAD 1962 ' PREFACE The publication presented herein is a list of 2,810 transla tions generally published in India during the years 1947-1958. A few translations published in U. S. S. R. and some published in India prior to 1947 ha\'e also been included; but the number of such translations is very limited. The list is neither comprehensive nor selective; it is simply a cumulation of entries for India in vols. 2-11 (there being no entry for India in vol. 1) of 'Index Translationum' published by Unesco, Paris. The object of cumulating is to spare the readers the tedium of scrutinizing all the 10 volumes of the 'Index Translationum' individually to find out if a particular work of a particular author has been translated into any langu age of India and also to ascertain what translations there are in the languages they are interested in. As translations enrich the languages into which they arc made, entries have been arranged in the alphabetical order of the languages of the translations. Under each language the arrangement is in the alphabetical order of the surnames of the authors of the originals from which translations have been made. Each entry consists of the following parts : (1) Author of the original-surname first; (2) Title of the transiation followed in square brackets by the language of the translation; (3) Name of the translator-uninverted; (4) Place of publication, name of the publishers, year of publications; (5) Number of pages, illustrations etc., price; (6) Language and title of the original in italics.
