Would this book be accepted as being in the Public Domain, and eligible to be added to the MR library?

I think the minimum age of the translator we could take as 15. So in 1948 they would be 108.
I think we can assume the translator died in or before 1948, and so the work is in the public domain in life+70 countries.
I'll double-check with the other moderators.
