I�� In 1969 a selection of U Pe Maung Tin’s literary research papers (including some that had originally been wri�en in English and were now translated into Burmese) was published in Burma to commemorate his eightieth birthday (24 April 1968). Titled `mn\ mawt—o qmuic\;AsNHc\. quetqnsatm\;mja; (Myanma wuthtu thamaing asa- hnin thuteithana sa-dan-mya) [The early history of the Burmese novel and other research papers] and with a preface by the then Chairman of the Burma Research Society, U Tha Myat, it contained two introductory pages of tributes wri�en by U Pe Maung Tin’s former students, now themselves illustrious literary ﬁgures, among them: Min Thu Wun (U Wun), Ludu Daw Amar, Shwe U Daung, Min Yu Wei, and Zawgyi (U Thein Han). To cite just one tribute (by Min Yu Wei): “Hsaya-gyi [‘great teacher’ U Pe Maung Tin] undertook to spread Burmese literature to everyone—all peoples of Burma—in order that they should be able to understand each other, be united, close and work as one.” He went on to say: “Today, hsaya-gyi has no car, no brick building, no luxury goods. But he does have in abundance people’s steadfast loving words and respect.” Min Yu Wei contributed to the compilation a description of the eightieth birthday kadaw-pwe [honoring ceremony] held by the Burma Research Society at the University of Rangoon for Professor Pe Maung Tin and gave a short account of his life and achievements, stating that U Pe Maung Tin had wri�en altogether eighteen books in Burmese, twelve in English, forty- two research articles, six other articles and ﬁ�y-two reviews. In fact, the tally is much larger, given that many more of U Pe Maung Tin’s writings have been traced while others have been reprinted or only published posthumously. Interestingly, but in keeping with the political climate of Burma in the socialist (Burma Socialist Program Party) era, no mention was made— even when discussing the Burma Research Society and the translation of The Glass Palace Chronicle—of U Pe Maung Tin’s

130 Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 U Pe Maung Tin Bibliography brother-in-law, the eminent historian of early Pagan, Gordon H. Luce (who was forced by the government to leave Burma in 1964 a�er nearly ﬁ�y years’ residence). But, for many, their names are forever linked and associated with Burma’s most fertile intellectual period, the 1920s and 1930s, when Burmese and foreigners shared—most notably through the medium of the Burma Research Society—the excitement of researching and writing about all aspects of Burma’s past and of fostering literary and cultural developments. The bibliography of U Pe Maung Tin’s writings that follows is arranged chronologically by date of publication so as to highlight his prodigious output, somehow achieved amidst all his teaching duties; travels; full involvement in the Burma Research Society, including the editorship of the Journal of the Burma Research Society; the university debating society; his service on the university textbook commi�ee and Burmese dictionary commi�ee; general editorship of the Burmese text series of the Burma Research Society; his chairmanship of the Burma (Myanmar) Historical Commission; his musical recreations; and his Christian and family commitments. I initially compiled the bibliography for the September 1998 London Symposium and have since revised and expanded it, including by cross-checking against entries from the U Pe Maung Tin Bibliography compiled by U Thaw Kaung, the retired Chief Librarian of the Universities’ Central Library, Yangon, for the “U Pe Maung Tin 111th Birthday Symposium” held in Yangon in December 1998. He was assisted by librarian colleagues Daw Tin Win Yi, U Than Ohn, Daw Ohnmar Oo, Daw Khin Hnin Oo, and Daw Su; and his bibliography was published in 1999 with the other Yangon symposium papers, including a reprint of ﬁve papers by U Pe Maung Tin, in: VI;ePemac\tc\ 111NHs\`pv\. gu¯\#psatm\;mja; (U Pe Maung Tin 111-hnit-pyei gon-pyu sa-dan-mya) [Papers in honor of U Pe Maung Tin’s 111th anniversary], p. 65–92 of the English language section. U Thaw Kaung’s bibliography lists 194 works, arranged in order of type of publication and with Burmese language entries cited in romanization only. In my bibliography, I have excluded

Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 131 Patricia Herbert works that appeared under the general editorship of U Pe Maung Tin, such as those published in the Burma Research Society’s Burmese Text Series (approximately fi�y works) and by the Burma Historical Commission—that is, works edited or compiled by other scholars—and included only those directly edited by U Pe Maung Tin. Many of the editors of such works were U Pe Maung Tin’s former students. A complete listing of the series, with notes on the editors, is given in the 1969 publication Myanma wuthtu thamaing asa-hnin thuteithana sa- dan-mya, p. 23–30. My revised bibliography now lists 227 works and provides Burmese language title entries in Burmese script first, then in romanization, and finally a translation of the title in square parentheses, except in the case of parallel titles in English and Burmese. Parallel titles are indicated by an equal sign (=) between the two titles. I have chosen to give the publication details of Burmese language works in romanization only, and have tended to use Rangoon for early publications and Yangon for later ones. The romanization system used is conventional transcription with voicing, as provided in John Okell’s A Guide to the Romanization of Burmese (London: Royal Asiatic Society, 1971, p. 66–67), but with certain exceptions for established romanizations of names (for example, Pe instead of Hpei as in Pe Maung Tin, and Ko instead of Hko as in Taw Sein Ko) and also in the case of parallel titles where I have retained the romanization appearing on the title page. The original romanizations appearing in titles of journal articles and similar publications have, of course, been retained as published. On the o�en confusing question of hyphenation in romanization of Burmese, I have used hyphens where deemed necessary for sense groups, but I have not used hyphens for Myanma, nor for foreign loan words (for example, words of Pali origin). No diacritics are used for Burmese romanizations nor for Pali. Under each year of publication heading, all entries are given a running number and are cited in order of books, articles, notes, and book reviews (rather than in alphabetical order of title); and a subject index is provided for ease of

132 Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 U Pe Maung Tin Bibliography reference. The bibliography is for the most part not annotated, but I have deemed it useful at times to add some clarifying comments on content as well as quotations so as to convey the ﬂavor of U Pe Maung Tin’s writing style and the breadth of his scholarship. U Pe Maung Tin’s earliest works were published under the name of Maung Tin, but later—to avoid confusion with another Maung Tin—he became Pe Maung Tin, the Pe of which in his earliest Burmese works he wrote as eB. By the 1930s it appeared in either form (as eB or as eP), but therea�er only as eP. Many of his English editorial articles, notes, and book reviews in the Journal of the Burma Research Society would appear just with the initials MT or PMT, but in my annotations I only use PMT. Finally, as is the fate of most bibliographies, mine cannot claim to be one hundred percent comprehensive and free of errors. I am most grateful to U Thaw Kaung for his comments (August 2003) on a dra� of my revised bibliography and to Daw San San May of the British Library for help in tracing some works.

60. “A Comparative Study of Burmese History.” JBRS 8 (2): 121–28. Comment: English translation by PMT of article by Hmawbi Saya Thein, razwc\tui>mH N:ic\;yH\rn\ Tut\Nut\eBa\`pKjk\ (Yazawin-do-hma hnaing-shin-yan htok-nok hpaw-pya- gyet). Hmawbi Saya Thein’s Burmese text follows, p. 128–42.

61. Review of Maung Yin Maung and Ma Me Ma, by James Hla Gyaw. JBRS 8 (1): 63–64. Comment: PMT points out that this work, published in 1904 and acclaimed as the ﬁrst Burmese novel, is the Count of Monte Cristo in Burmese garb. PMT’s assessment has been much quoted; it is however misleading as very li�le of Dumas’ work was used in the novel.

62. Review of Maung Pe Shin and Ma Me Tin, pt. 1, by Saya Ba. JBRS 8 (2): 179–80.

63. Review of Maung Hmaing, pt 2, by Maung Gyi [sic, U Kyi]. JBRS 8 (2): 180–81.

64. Review of Maung Hmaing, pt. 3, by U Kyi. JBRS 8 (3): 286. Comment: PMT’s verdict: “A wearisome continuation of the same tale of the doings of a neurotic ﬂirt in the days of polygamic Burma. This volume like its predecessor has no other value than that of ﬁne language in the mouths of the many lovers.” Note: part 1 of Maung Hmaing was reviewed by Ba Han in JBRS 8 (1): 64–67.

65. Review of Report of the Superintendent, Archaeological Survey of Burma, 1918–19. JBRS 8 (3): 286–87. Comment: PMT questions Taw Sein Ko’s theory on the lineage of Kyanzi�ha, namely that his mother came from Vesali in Arakan, rather than from India.

142 Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 U Pe Maung Tin Bibliography

1919

66. “Anantathuriya’s Death Song.” JBRS 9 (3): 153–55. Comment: PMT examines diﬀerent readings of this famous twel�h-century poem; although King Narapatisithu ordered a stay of execution upon reading the poem, the death sentence had already been carried out.

67. “Derivation of ‘Ari’.” JBRS 9 (3): 155–65. Comment: A critique by PMT of C. Duroiselle’s paper “The Aris of Burma and Tantric Buddhism” published in Archaeological Survey of India, 1915–16.

71. Review of Maung Ta Naw Wu�u, pt 1, by Maung Ba Thin. JBRS 9 (2): 112. Comment: PMT calls this work “a handbook of Burmese wisdom in the guise of a novel. The various lessons (in customs, omens, divination, etc.) are given as practical hints to a love-match, which have just enough love- interest to dispel boredom.”

Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 143 Patricia Herbert

72. Review of Sein Gale Wu�u, part 1, by U Kyi. JBRS 9 (3): 160. Comment: PMT’s verdict: “Another novel of the same immoral type as Maung Hmaing by the same author in a less animated style.”

73. Review of The Wonderful, part 1, by Saya Dwe. JBRS 9 (3): 161. Comment: PMT’s review both condemns and praises: “A novel with a misleading title. The author has not learnt the subtle art of novel writing. . . . A great merit of the book is the purity of diction which forms its principal charm.”

74. Review of The Beginnings of Buddhist Art and other Essays in Indian and Central Asian Archaeology, by M. A. Foucher. JBRS 9 (3): 159–60.

The dramatic value of the book is enhanced by a skillful use of Karen accentuation of Burmese words. Indeed we have no hesitation in saying that this is the ﬁrst Burmese novel which approaches European novels as regards the humour and satire of its dialogue.”

PMT was not well enough to travel from Rangoon, so the poet U Tin Moe recorded PMT’s words at home and read them to the meeting. It is customary

Journal of Burma Studies, Volume 9 169 Patricia Herbert

to annually honor respected senior writers on Writers’ Day which falls in December, and in 1972 the Upper Burma Writers’ Association had invited four senior writers including PMT (soon to be eighty-five), and Shwe U Daung (aged eighty-four). The content of PMT’s message, delivered in simple colloquial Burmese, is highly significant. He refers to the UBWA’s preference for and increasing adoption of a more modern colloquial style in their wri�en work, a style which was not favored by the more conservative literary establishment in Rangoon. PMT felt that it would be disastrous for the future development of the Burmese language if a way were not to be found to harmonize usage throughout the country, and he urges his audience to find a solution to the controversy. Even such a short time before his death (March 1973), PMT was anxious about and speaking out about the future of the Burmese language and calling for the preparation of dictionaries and guides to usage.

222. “The Simile of the Skyscraper.” Maha Bodhi, Journal of the Maha Bodhi Society 83 (4/5): 225–29. Comment: PMT writes about his experiences lecturing on Buddhism in America (1957–59) and comments that he found his students could not accept the concept of suffering and concludes that this is because Americans believed that happiness could be achieved by removing material obstacles to suffering. PMT says he first used the simile of a skyscraper for conveying the Buddhist concept of the thirty-one planes of existence in lectures at Bucknell University in March 1958. The article has a short editorial postscript giving an appreciation of PMT and stating that the article for Maha Bodhi was wri�en in his final days and that he never saw the finished manuscript. Two translations of the article into Burmese were subsequently published: one by Maung Hon Wun under the title dukˆqsŒaNHc\. mui;pjMtuik\@kI; (Dokhka thitsa-hnin mo-
