Mohammed Abu Oweimer (vic2pal) | 47 comments Hi.. I want to talk about Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, especially the Arabic version.

I'll start with the copy that I have read personally.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

It's the second edition of this book (3rd edition)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Both of them need to be combined with other Arabic editions with different translators. Note that even those edition need some work:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... (Two authors: Victor Hugo and فيكتور هوجو, the same Victor but written in Arabic)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9... (The author is wrong. It must be Victor not Disney)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... (The author is فيكتور هوجو, and Victor Hugo is missed)

All these Arabic versions must be combined with Victor's main book. right?
Which I think that this is it https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
(Even when I look in the French name of the book I see this one appears. Also it has the highest number of ratings)

In another hand I can see too many English copies missed the name of the author Victor Hugo. Have a look here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Note that there're more of them.


And a final question, how can I become a librarian so that I can help you especially in Arabic books. I know that there's some requirements to become one, but how can I see my progress in these requirements?

Thanks in advance

Ashish, for your future requests, there is a special discussion for page numbering issues here.
For now, can you tell there are 250 pages because you have a copy of this book? And please tell isbn to check the edition.

Mohammed, combining is processing for Arabic editions except for Disney's edition. It looks like an adaptation, and adaptations are not to be combined with the main work. Also the name of adaptor is to be used for adapted editions.

Speaking of other editions, it needs more time to make a research, because most of them seem like adaptations as well. And since there are already 1744 editions of this book this is really a long process to combine more of them. Other Librarians might correct me, but it could be a project for somebody to make this kind of revision and cleaning, if any needed.

If you want to become a Librarian, you can apply here. The most important thing is to read Librarian Manual and follow it's directions.

Ekaterina Okuneva (okuneshku) | 3799 comments #913 - can't do it, there are so many books, process is failing all the time.
#916-918 done
#921 done
#923-933 done
#939-940 done

upd: #864 still needs somebody more experienced, I can't sort the editions to be on the same page to combine, because they have completely different titles.
