I am curious about this. I have found that there are number of primary works that have not been translated into english and are in the public domain in their native language. Translations are copyrighted if they are recent. I have a very short list of items which are of interest to me. They are things like Sundiata Lion King of Mali not having a public domain translation in English that I can find easily or there not being a public domain translation of Dede Korkut in English. Many of the better translations are copyrighted and not free.
