I have great pleasure in placing before students and Professors of Sanskrit, this edition of Magha's Shishupalavadham-Cantos I-III. The edition contains the text of the three cantos prose order of verses, a lit-eral English translation, an exhaustive Introduction and concise critical notes. The book is rounded off with a few relevant & Shlok indices and appendices. I have spared no pains to make the book useful to students as to other readers. Any suggestions for improvement will be thankfully received and carefully attended to.
The Purvasuris in the field have given all the light in the main; and to them I am ever deholden. The Profes-sors and students of Sanskrit have been always gener-ous in their support to my works; and I record my grati-tude to them. I have no doubt that they will continue their generosity in future as well.
To my friend Shri T.A. Kulkarni, B.Sc. (Hons.) B.Ed., goes great credit for editing & proof reading it enthusi-astically. My relations with him are too intimate for a formal vote of thanks. But I shall fail in my duty if I do not express my appreciation for his ever ready support to the cause of Sanskrit and Prakrit. My thanks also go to his entire staff.
