Abstract: In 1949 Chowla and Selberg gave a very useful formula for the Epstein zeta-function associated with a positive definite binary quadratic form. Several generalizations of this formula are given here. The method of proof is new and is based on a theorem that we formerly proved for ``generalized'' Dirichlet series. An easy proof of Kronecker's second limit formula is also given.
