Kumarajiva's translations of Nagarjuna's works

[markatex]

I've come upon Nagarjuna in China, a translation of the Kumarajiva version of Nagarjuna's Middle Way Treatise (it's very expensive). Are there any other of Kumarajiva's translation of Nagarjuna's material in English? Most of the English translations seem to come from Indian or Tibetan traditions, which I'm less interested in.

Here is part of N. Upadesha with Chinese on facing pages:

Another volume with the Stories: http://kalavinka.org/kp_book_pages/mspw ... 20page.htm

And lastly a Gelongma translated Lamotte's French into five PDFs:

Thanks! I wondered if the Kalavinka materials were translated from Kumarajiva's Chinese versions. I will have to check them out.
