Dear Mr. Ferstl,

as can be seen from the blurb, Professor Bollée himself had released this volume for printing only a couple of days before his death in the course of which he also decided on the title in exactly its published form. The publisher and the series editors had to respect his wishes in this respect.
A PDF with Bollée's preface can however be viewed and downloaded on the publisher's order page before actually placing an order. It reads: "This first volume analyses the text up to page 237 as far as Kane in his edition of Peterson (Bombay, 1920-21) and accordingly David Smith's in the Clay Sanskrit Library 51".
https://uvhw.de/studia-indologica/product/200702_08-221-9.html ("Read Sample").

Since this one was, as I expressly stated in my announcement, "the last monograph from his untiring pen", there can be no more subsequent volumes, unless Professor Bollée returns reborn with the same profession, or you or someone else with a similar diligence as Professor Bollée take the trouble to complete his index themselves.

Kind regards,
WS

Thank you, Prof. Slaje,

for bringing this very deserving publication to our attention. However,
not the complete Sanskrit text of Bāṇa’s Kādambarī is covered by this
index, which lists lemma only up to Parab's edition (Bombay 1948) p.
237, i.e., only a part of the pūrvabhāga. This is mentioned in the
preface, but no hint of it is given in the title of the book or by the
Series number.
Are there plans to publish an index of the remaining parts?

Christian Ferstl
