[Buddha-l] Languages of Buddhist scholarship

[jkirk]

I don't know any Prof. Todeschini in person, but if I (Todeschini the
PhD student) will suffice, I will give one example:

Gnoli, Raniero, ed. _La Rivelazione del Buddha: Il Grande Veicolo_
Mondadori, 2004

This is the second volume edited by Gnoli. Counting introduction,
translations, notes and glossary it is almost 2000 pages of Mahayana
texts translated by several Italian scholars. Included are complete
translations of:

Prajnaparamitastotra
Prajnaparamitahrdayasutra Vistamatrka
Dignaga's Prajnaparamitapindartha
Vajracchedika
Arya Sura's Paramitasamasa
Lalitavistara
Surangamasamadhisutra
Vimalakirtinirdesasutra
Nagarjuna's Mulamadhyamakakarika
Nagarjuna's Pratityasamutpadahrdayakarika
Nagarjuna's Vigrahavyavartani
Santideva's Bodhicaryavatara
Kamalasila's 3 Bhavanakramas
Nagarjuna's Catuhstava
Matrceta's Satapancasataka
Vasubandhu's Vimsatika
Vasubandhu's Trimsika
Sukhavativyuhasutra (Short version)
Asvaghosa's Gurupancasika
Sadhuputrasridharanananda's Sekoddesatippani
Pundarika's Paramaksarajnanasiddhi

And partial translations of:
Astadasasahasrikaprajnaparamitra
Suvarnaprabhasottamasutra
Saddharmapundarika
Samadhirajasutra
Lankavatarasutra
Dasabhumikasutra
Candrakirti's Prasannapada
Moksakaragupta's Tarkabhasa
Santaraksita's Tattvasamgraha
The Book of Zambasta
Guhyasamajatantra
Hevajratantra
Vajrapani's Laghutantratika

Diacritics can look a bit messy to non-specialists, and specialists
don't need them, so I did not write them.

Alberto Todeschini
=====================
Alberto,
Sorry for the gaffe, but then you will soon be some kind of professor, no?
Thanks for supplying the above citation, but what I had in mind was not 
translations, but discussions of Buddhist ideas. Anything you might suggest 
in that range?

Not having come across The Book of Zambasta, I looked it up and found a site 
that describes it----a Khotanese document, at
http://www.iranica.com/newsite/articles/v4f4/v4f4a019.html if anyone is 
curious.
