Is there a way to search for all the translations by a certain translator?
Good point, but Iâm afraid the answer is, no not so far as I know. We are working on a new system which will allow us have multiple translators for each sutta and to filter by translator.
Just wondering if this happened? I canât work out how to do it.
It would be lovely to have a translators page, showing what each translator has done and maybe a little biography?
So my use case is that an author might want to include a reference in a paper or book along the lines of:
BrahmÄli, Bhikkhu (tr.) â Translations of the TheravÄda Vinayapiášaka. SuttaCentral.
And I would want to link to a sensible page at suttacentral.
Itâs quite easily done using the alternative google powered site search. This comes in multiple flavors!
One only needs to use the translatorâs name as one of the search fields.
Thank you so much. Thatâs great!
Use the key author:foo
and youâre good to go.
