His collaboration with the publisher Pierre-Jules Hetzel led to the creation of the Voyages extraordinaires a series of bestselling adventure novels including Journey to the Center of the Earth 1864 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas 1870 and Around the World in Eighty Days 1872. His novels always well documented are generally set in the second half of the 19th century taking into account the technological advances of the time. Verne is considered to be an important author in France and most of Europe where he has had a wide influence on the literary avant-garde and on surrealism. His reputation was markedly different in the Anglosphere where he had often been labeled a writer of genre fiction or children's books largely because of the highly abridged and altered translations in which his novels have often been printed. Since the 1980s his literary reputation has improved. Jules Verne has been the second most-translated author in the world since 1979 ranking between Agatha Christie and William Shakespeare. He has sometimes been called the "father of science fiction" a title that has also been given to H. G. Wells and Hugo Gernsback. In the 2010s he was the most translated French author in the world.

Philippoteaux Graves Par Lalante Illustrator Bio: Synopsis: The Armillary sphere type cartonage front cover was used between 1877 and 1883 Verne had problems with this novel from the very beginning.2 Originally he intended that Gallia would crash into the earth killing everybody aboard. This may have been the motivation for naming the hero "Servadac" with the mirror of the French word cadavres "corpses" predicting all would die on the "return". His publisher Hetzel would not accept this however given the large juvenile readership in his monthly magazine and Verne was forced to graft an optimistic ending onto the story allowing the inhabitants of Gallia to escape the crash in a balloon.

La Verne (Sometimes Laverne) Genevieve CassedayBiblio.com

1934-1939 Diary of a High School Student Living in the Rural Coal Region of Pennsylvania

0011148Scalp Level Pennsylvania Windber PA. Fair with no dust jacket. Hardcover. On offer is an interesting 5-year diary written by a teenage girl living in the rural coal region of Pennsylvania during the Great Depression. The author of this diary is La Verne sometimes Laverne Genevieve Casseday 1920-2010 of Scalp Level Pennsylvania. Laverne was born to Roy and Mildred Horne Casseday. In 1950 she married Dean Shank Hostletler 1919-2004. Dean served in England in WWII attended the Cincinnati School of Embalming and eventually worked in sales at Schmidts Blue Ribbon Bakery. They had one daughter Gail 1952-2003. La Verne was an entrepreneur who worked as a hairdresser and beautician. In adulthood she was heavily involved with Windber Museum and the Windber Coal Heritage. She was also a member of the Red Hat Society. La Verne attended Windber High School in Somerset County Pennsylvania. She notes in the back of her diary that she is a freshman in 1934. La Verne begins her diary in 1934 but is a highly inconsistent diarist. She skips around over the next few years sometimes writing regularly for several days or weeks sometimes ignoring her dairy for months only to return for a few entries. Her last entries are in 1939. Some excerpts give a sense of the flavour of her diary: Went to town. Got picture taken. Bought a new dress for school. Stayed home in evening July 30 1934 or 1935. Ironed. Went to Central City to swimming pool. Martha and Duf Lockrie Betty Janet Aunt June. Ethel was here in Eve July 7 1936. Went to the show. Some boys walked us home. Too bad we were seen by anybody Mar 26 1937. Received watch. Graduation gift. Handkerchief from Mrs. Hakenbury. Commencement Ethel Shaffers May 26 1937. Verna and I went to Oakland. Had a pretty good time. Lloyd Hostetter and Jac Faust brought us home May 26 1938. "Mother & Dad & Janet went to Windber. Janet & I went to see Way Down South. Had a nice time. Went into Schaffers to see. Went up to the Drug store" Aug 23 1938. Guess what Home! No! Lucille Yoder asked me to join Dramatic Club Oct 14 1938. Very sad. Germany war time. Girl dies June 8 year unclear. Went to game. Pretty good. Windber won. Show the Irish in us was good. Mildred went too Sept 7 year unclear. The diary ends with four pages of names and addresses of friends. This diary would make an excellent addition to the resources for a Womens Studies or Social History program. A genealogist would find this an excellent research resource as her diary is chock full of the names of family friends and acquaintances. This would also be a valuable addition to research in Womens Studies. It gives a glimpse into life in rural Pennsylvania during the Depression through the eyes of a young teenager. ABOUT SCALP LEVEL PA: Scalp Level and nearby Windber were coal-mining communities that were in the heart of the coal mining strikes and labour disruptions of the 1920s and 1930s. The nearby coal mines were owned by the Berwind-White Coal Mining Company. Berwind-White imported workers from eastern and southern Europe and exploited ethnic divisions in the area. On Good Friday 1922 coal miners walked out of the mines in Windber and several nearby locations attempting to force the mine owners to recognize their United Mine Workers union as well as improve the terrible pay and conditions under which they laboured. The company employed legal tactics as well as strike-breakers but the miners received considerable favorable national publicity and local support and held out until the end of the following summer. However the UMW successfully organized the mines during 1933 after the Great Depression led to the election of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The diary measures 5.25 inches by 3.5 inches and contains 365 pages. The diary is about 50% complete. The cover is a brown leather suede which shows signs of wear. The cover has separated from the binding an d several pages are loose. Some of the first pages have small sections cut out. The handwriting is legible. ; Manuscripts; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 365 pages; Signed by Author . hardcover
