Studies in Chuvash Etymology was volume 17 in University of Szeged's series Studia Uralo-Altaica. Of the papers, most are reprintings of journal articles, and only Berta's is an original contribution to this volume. The contents, together with their original appearance, are:
* Julius Nemeth - "The meaning of the etnonym [sic] bulgar", originally published in German in Die Bedeutung des bulgarischen Volksnamen: Studia in Honorem Veselini Beshevliev, Sofia 1978.
* Hasan Eren - "Remarks on V.G. Egorov's Etymological Dictionary of the Chuvash Language", originally published in Turkish in Chuvash dilinin etymologique sozlugu: turk dili arastirmalari yilligi belleten, 1972.
* András Róna-Tas, "Loan-words of Ultimate Middle Mongolian origin in Chuvash", first published in Hungarian in the series Acta Universitatis Szegediensis de Attila Jószef nominatae Sectio Ethnographica et Linguistica, volumes XV-XVI (1971-72) and XVII-XVIII (1973-74).
* A. Róna-Tas, "Some Volga Bulgarian words in the Volga Kipchak languages", first published in Hungaro-Tucica: Studies in Honour of Julius Németh ed. Gy. Káldy-Nagy. Budapest, 1976.
* A. Róna-Tas, "Three Volga Kipchak etymologies", first published in that aforementioned Acta Universitatis Szegediensis series, volume XXI (1977).
* A. Róna-Tas & Károly Rédei, "Proto-Permian and Votyak loanwords in Chuvash", first published in Hungarian as "Őspermi és votják jövevényszavak a csuvasban" in NyK 82 (1980).
* Arpád Berta, "Zwei Wolgabolgarischen Lehnwörter in der Mundart der getauften Tataren".
These papers are helpful contributions to Altaistics, a couple of them classics, but nowadays when people have access to online journals and such, I'd encourage people to just get the original journal publications of these papers. In reprinting them here, they have all been set in very ugly cold type, with many symbols written in by hand, on low-quality paper. There are some typos, probably the result of manually typing the text while looking at the original publication.
