[Vijaya Singa] / [Julius Caesar translated into Marathi by Kasinatha Govinda Natu]

Kasinatha Govinda Natu translated this version of Julius Caesar into Marathi 1872, and published it with the title Vijaya Singh (or Vijaya Singa). This version was written to be performed, and is noted as having "momentary success" during the period. It is likely that this version of Julius Ceasar was performed by students of Vishrambaug High School in Poona in 1872, who are recorded as performing a version of Julius Caesar in this year in the school courtyard. There is a duplicate of this publication at 8140557, a gift of the Home Department, Government of India to Her Majesty's (Queen Victoria) Secretary for the State of India (Sir R.R Cross [Viscount Cross from 19 August 1886]), and thence by the India Office, London.
