Thank you. Sorry to bother, but can you delete one of this:

Which is the correct spelling for the title, the one with e or ë?

#569 Is this the correct spelling for Aeschylus in Ukrainian: Есхіл ?

#570 combined (not merged)

lethe | 16359 comments #573 Thanks. Have merged 568.

569: Added Есхіл to Ukrainian edition, but didn't combine, because according to Google translate it contains 7 tragedies, and the Spanish edition only has 5* (page counts are very different too).
It can only be combined with other editions that have the same content.

*ETA The Spanish edition has 7 too, if the Oresteia is counted as 3 different tragedies. Combined.

Sir_Pete | 1 comments Hello,
by mistake I created czech edition of book The Cellar as standalone book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Original here https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Tried to combine it myself but Im always redirected to author's profile page for some reason (without any permission error).

Thank you in advance to anybody who will combine it.

Every user can add a book or a new edition. Only Goodreads librarians can combine books.

They already are combined.


message 570: by lethe (new)

lethe | 16359 comments #577 Joshua, if you mean they should be merged (not combined), please post in this thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... (books with so many adds can only be deleted by a super)


message 571: by Sergi (new)

Sergi Llauger (sergillauger) | 15 comments The ebook https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... which is a Kindle ebook which I am the author of, has been removed from sale from Amazon and an **identical** new version has been uploaded via KDP which caused it to gain a new ASIN. This was done by the publisher merely for administrative reasons.

Goodreads seemingly automatically found the new one and created a page for it at https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....

Only the latter is valid now, then, while the former, the only different thing it has being the ASIN, is obsolete.

Would it be appropriate to merge them?


message 572: by lethe (last edited Dec 28, 2015 02:21AM) (new)

lethe | 16359 comments #580 No, editions that are no longer available are not deleted from the database. See message 2 of the Author FAQ: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

ETA the links you posted are the same.

Gretel (gretelrot) | 76 comments This one is a bit complicated.

Please merge this hardcover edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

with these two ebook editions https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

and

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Also, please use this corrected text for the book, the one posted right now has errors: Die Ereignisse nach dem 11. September 2001 und die jungsten gesellschaftlichen Umbruche im Nahen Osten, der Irak-Krieg, der Burgerkrieg in Syrien, der fortdauernde Konflikt in Afghanistan, aber auch die interkulturellen Probleme innerhalb Deutschlands machen deutlich, wie wichtig die Bilder und Vorstellungen sind, die sich der 'Westen' vom traditionell auf den Begriff des 'Orients' gebrachten Nahen und Mittleren Osten macht. Die Beitrage dieses Bandes geben Aufschlüsse über das Verhältnis von Identität und Alterität, von Selbst- und Fremdbildern im Verhältnis der deutschen Kultur und Gesellschaft zum 'Orient'.

Reihe: Historisch-kritische Arbeiten zur deutschen Literatur - Band 54


Also, the title is incorrect. It's German and in German only the propper nouns are upper case, so it should be: Moderne und Morgenland: Orient-Diskurse in der deutschsprachigen Literatur von 1890 bis zur Gegenwart

Correcting publisher (wrong/missing upper cases): Peter Lang GmbH, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften, Frankfurt am Main

The hardcover version is the first edition
Contributors: Dieter Heimböckel, Winfried Eckel, Volker Mergenthaler, Jan Gerstner, Alexander Honold, Herbert Uerlings, Mirjam Springer, Axel Dunker, Laura Beck, Norbert Otto Eke and Stefan Hermes

I know there is one ebook edition but I couldn't find information on the second one, namely this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

with this ISBN13: 9781306558211

I think this ebook version might not exist. The cover is correct, though.

Thank you!

Arenda | 26447 comments #590 done. Added the cover to the hardcover from the publishers website.
Both ebooks have an isbn, so it is likely they exist or have existed.

Hannah (bookwormhannah) | 198 comments Two separate listing under two versions of the author's name. If it makes any difference, the books were published under M.E. Waller.
