Dear Prof. Karashima,

This is a great service to indology and Buddhist studies.  Many thanks indeed to yourself, to Dr. Marciniak and to everyone connected with producing this new edition of the Mahāvastu and making it freely available.

Sincerely,
Dominik Wujastyk

Dear colleagues,

I am happy to announce that a PDF file of the third volume of the new edition of the Mahāvastu, ed. by Dr. Marciniak, is now available on the website of IRIAB (http://iriab.soka.ac.jp/en/publication/bppb.html). Some addenda et corrigenda are incorporated in the file. A list of further addenda et corrigenda will be occasionally renewed and uploaded. I myself and Dr. Marciniak are now preparing vols. I and II, which will be published in the coming years.


A proposed abbreviation of this edition is as follows:

Mv(KM)  =  The Mahāvastu: A New Edition by Seishi Karashima and Katarzyna Marciniak, 3 vols., Tokyo: The International Research Institute for Advanced Buddhology, Soka University. 2019–.


With best wishes,

Seishi Karashima
