Which Premchand stories are written in Hindi and which in Urdu?

Question

The Indian writer Premchand started off writing in Urdu, and started writing Hindi stories later in his career. According to Wikipedia:

In 1914, Munshi Premchand started writing in Hindi (Hindi and Urdu are considered different registers of a single language Hindustani, with Hindi drawing much of its vocabulary from Sanskrit and Urdu being more influenced by Persian). By this time, he was already reputed as a fiction writer in Urdu. Sumit Sarkar notes that the switch was prompted by the difficulty of finding publishers in Urdu.

As someone who speaks neither Hindi nor Urdu (but can at least see the difference in written text, since they use different alphabets), how can I tell whether a given Premchand story, which I'm reading in English translation, was originally written in Urdu or in Hindi?

For example, the short story "Catastrophe", which has already had a few questions asked about it on this site - was it originally in Urdu or in Hindi? The collection Short Stories of Premchand, available on the Internet Archive, has a Translator's Note which discusses in general the translation of Premchand's work from both Hindi and Urdu to English - are the stories in this volume translated from Urdu, from Hindi, or a mixture?

Answer 1

Detailed publication information regarding Premchand's short stories—along with valuable comments on the differences between the Urdu and Hindi versions—is available in the "Notes" at the end of each of the four volumes of Premchand: the complete short stories (2017), edited by M. Asaduddin and published by Penguin Books. From the foreword by Harish Trivedi:

It is now possible to say with certainty which of the two versions of the story was first published, and in the great majority of the cases it is clear that the version first published was also the first to be written.

He goes on to say:

Though the early translations from Urdu into Hindi were mostly done by Premchand himself, we have firm evidence, for example, that the final manuscript of the Hindi Rangbhumi was translated into Urdu by another person who demanded a rate that Premchand thought to be exorbitant. In any case, all his works throughout his life in both Hindi and Urdu were published under Premchand's own name with no mention of a translator and are treated by the common reader as being equally original.

A sample entry from the "Notes" section, when there are no additional comments regarding differences between the Urdu and Hindi versions, is as follows (taken for the short story This Is My Homeland, translated into English from Urdu for volume 1 by M. Asaduddin):

First published in Urdu with the title 'Yehi Mera Watan Hai' in the Urdu anthology, Soz-e Watan (1908). Now available in Kulliyaat-e Premchand 9 (2000). It was published in Hindi with the title 'Yehi Meri Matribhumi Hai' in Prem Prasun (1924).

The bare bones of this information has been compiled into the table below for all the stories in this collection. The entry for the year is bolded if it is for the version published first.

Remarks

• Some stories have been republished under a different title, which is why there are sometimes two entries in the same cell, for e.g., no. 7.
• Some stories have not been published in one or the other language, but a transliteration from one language to the other is available. This is noted as "Transliterated", for e.g., no. 6.
• A blank entry means that that short story has not been published in that language anywhere even in a transliterated form, for e.g., no. 42.
• If a question mark is put in place of the title, it means that nothing is mentioned in the "Notes" regarding the title in that language, for e.g., no. 57. The missing information can be filled out if someone has access to these stories in that language.
• For nos. 103, 105, and 267, it is not clear whether the original is still available. So, just to be sure, I've mentioned the transliteration information as well.

Footnotes

^[1]It is mentioned that no. 93 was first published in Urdu in April 1922, and published in Hindi in June 1921, so there must be a typo here. Perhaps "April 1922" should have been "April 1921"?

^[2]It is mentioned that no. 94 was first published in Urdu in July 1921, and published in Hindi in April 1921, so there must be a typo here. Perhaps "April 1921" should have been "April 1922"?

^[3]The details of first publication is unknown.

^[4]The place of first publication is mentioned as Khaak-e Parwana (2nd ed.), but no year is given. The list of "Popular Editions" in Urdu in the last page shows Khaak-e Parwana, Lucknow: Nigar Press, 1928. But it is not clear whether this is the first or the second edition.

^[5]The date is listed as "1993", but this is surely a typo for "1933".
