Jules Verne Translations

Jules Verne's stories have been translated many times. The purpose of this page is to help identify which title a publication should be placed under or if a new title record is required.

If the actual text is available, the first paragraph can be used to identify the translation in one of the tables below. If the title matches, then the link for that title can be used to select the title record page and add a new publication.

If the text matches but there is no matching title, then a new title record should be created. Please copy the translation information in the title note from one of the listed titles to the new title and remember to variant the title back to the original French title record.

If the text is not available, but the translator is known, a match may still be possible using the same approach as for the translation text.

As a final check, some translations are identified by the original publisher. That information has been included to help in such a case.

If a translation cannot be identified, the last entry in the table may be for unidentified translations. The title records here should be used as a base for such publications. They should be migrated to the correct translation / title if the translation is later identified.

The term Translation text is not known has been used in titles where the translator is known, but the text has not been provided. At some future point this may be entered. Publications should only be placed under these titles if the translator matches. The term Publication text is not known has been used for titles that include publications that have given no indication of their translation. This makes them generic 'bit-buckets', useful for sources which do not provide the necessary information to identify the translation.

Die Mitglieder des Gun-Klubs, eines Vereins von Artilleristen, der sich nach dem amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg in Baltimore gebildet hatte, kamen auf die Idee, sich durch den Abschuß einer Kugel mit dem Mond in Verbindung zu setzen. (Von zehn Uhr zwanzig bis zehn Uhr vierzig abends) Schlag zehn Uhr verabschiedeten sich Ardan, Barbicane und Nicholl von ihren zahlreichen Freunden auf der Erde. Die beiden Hunde, die das Hundegeschlecht im Mondland einführen und verbreiten sollten, befanden sich bereits im Projektil.

N. D'Anvers	On the evening of the 17th March 1859, Captain Craventy gave a fête at Fort Reliance. Our readers must not at once imagine a grand entertainment, such as a court ball, or a musical soirée with a fine orchestra. Captain Craventy's reception was a very simple affair, yet he had spared no pains to give it éclat. (part 1) And so Fort Hope, founded by Lieutenant Hobson on the borders of the Polar Sea, had drifted! Was the courageous agent of the Company to blame for this? No ; any one might have been deceived as he had been. No human prevision could have foreseen such a calamity.

an anonymous hand	On February 2, 1873, the schooner “Pilgrim” was in latitude 43°57' south, and in longitude 165°19' west of the meridian of Greenwich.

She was a schooner, the property of James W. Weldon, a wealthy Californian ship-owner who had fitted her out at San Francisco, expressly for the whale-fisheries in the southern seas. (Part 2) The "slave-trade" is an expression that ought never to have found its way into any human language. After being long practiced at a large profit by such European nations as had possessions beyond the seas, this abominable traffic has now for many years been ostensibly forbidden; yet even in the enlightenment of this nineteenth century, it is still largely carried on, especially in Central Africa, inasmuch as there are sever states, professedly Christian, whose signatures have never been affixed to the deed of abolition	1878-12-00	Sampson Low, Marston, Searle, & Rivington	Dick Sands: The Boy Captain

Voyages et aventures du capitaine Hatteras

This was originally serialized in two parts. Part 1 was titled as "Les Anglais au pôle nord" and a sub-title of "Aventures du capitaine Hatteras". A footnote explains this was a double-title ("Sous ce double titre"). Part 2 was titled as "Le Désert de glace" and sub-titled "Aventures du capitaine Hatteras". This entry seems to cover for both the first part and the combination, while the second part stands alone.

La journée d'un journaliste américain en 2890

This was written by Michel Verne and published in English. Subsequently, it was modified and published in French by Jules Verne. Posthumously, a further edited version was published by Michel Verne. This final version was translated back into English by I. O. Evans. The edits were relatively minor, so all editions variant to the first French edition, including the original English one.

Ellen E. Frewer	The sun had just sunk behind the snowy peaks of the Cordilleras, and, although the beautiful Peruvian sky was being covered by the veil of night, the atmosphere was clear and refreshing in it balmy coolness.

Anne T. Wilbur	The sun had disappeared behind the snowy peaks of the Cordilleras; but the beautiful Peruvian sky long retains, through the transparent veil of night, the reflection of his rays; the atmosphere is impregnated with a refreshing coolness, which in these burning latitudes affords freedom of breath; it is the hour in which one can live a European life, and seek without on the verandas some cooling gentle zephyr; it seems as if a metallic roof was then interposed between the sun and the earth, which, retaining the heat and suffering only the light to pass, offers beneath its shelter a reparative repose.	2002-09-26	Fredonia Books	The Pearl of Lima
