摘要
In my recent translation (Ferraro 2016) from Sanskrit to Portuguese of Nāgārjuna’s Mūlamadhyamakakārikā I have frequently consulted, among many others, Mark Siderits and Shōryū Katsura’s English version (Siderits / Katsura 2013) of the same work. In this review article I present some places where my understanding of Nāgārjuna’s words more markedly diverges from their translation. Regarding the ideal of “an English-speaking Nāgārjuna” as a work-in-progress which could be constantly improved, my observations aim to continue the list of remarks presented by Anne MacDonald in her review article (MacDonald 2015) of Siderits and Katsura’s work.
