- eventually completed</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Dear colleagues,<BR><BR>As nobody else sent the word around so
far, I consider it my obligation to announce that the long-awaited 3rd volume
of <Samguk sagi>'s Russian translation by Prof. Mikhail Pak (Moscow
University) and his disciples (contains "Chapchi" and "YOlchOn", kwOn 32-50)
has been at last printed. So, Prof. Mikhail Pak's life-long work on the
monument (he published the 1st volume in 1959, and the 2nd in 1995) is
eventually finished. The volume is amply commented (actually, for all of us,
translators, the commentary and not the translation as such was the main
challenge), and includes what possibly is the best existing bibliography of
<Samguk sagi>-related literature in Russian, Korean, Japanese, and
Western languages. For those interested in more details, I also attach an
English "summary" written by the editor and co-translator, Prof. Lev R.
Kontsevich. I am not sure whether the book is available with any net
booksellers, but it is reported to be on sale currently at Moscow's principal
academic bookstores.<BR><BR>With the best wishes,<BR><BR>V.
