Saraswati (English spelling)

Japanese: サラスワティー(英語表記)Saraswatī
Saraswati (English spelling)
A general-purpose magazine in Hindi, the current official language of India. It was first published in Allahabad in 1900 and continues to be published today. Its name comes from Saraswati, the goddess of learning. This magazine nurtured short stories, which were still in the experimental stage in the Hindi world at the beginning of the 20th century, by giving them a forum for publication. It also actively supported the writing of poetry in common Hindi, replacing the previous literary language Braj-Bhasha. Past editors-in-chief included Shyamsundardas and Mahavirprasad Dubivedi, the latter of whom served from 1903 to 1920, and contributed to the establishment of grammatically stable, logical, and clear Hindi prose through his editing of this magazine.

Japanese:
インドの現在の公用語であるヒンディー語による総合雑誌。1900年にアラーハーバードで創刊され,今日にいたる。誌名は学芸の女神サラスバティーの名に由来する。この雑誌は,20世紀初頭のヒンディー語界で,まだ実験段階にあった短編小説に発表の場を与えて育成した。さらに前代の文語ブラジュ・バーシャーに代わって共通ヒンディー語で詩作を行うことにも積極的な支援を送った。歴代の編集長にはシャームスンダルダース,マハービールプラサード・ドゥビベーディーなどがいたが,なかでも後者は1903年から20年まで在任し,この雑誌の編集を通じて文法的に安定し,論理的で明晰なヒンディー散文の確立に寄与した。
