Hello Jean-Michel,

I hope it is Verne's original, since "Den skønne gule Donau" would be "Le beau Danube Jaune" in french.
If you are interested, I will inform you, when it arrives, and I have read it.

Danish bibliography, well for a short list, there is a danish website containing just a brief list
giving the year of publishing, the french title, and the danish title (if there is one). About half
of Vernes works were never translated. The list has a few errors in it.
The URL is: www.arkaisk.dk/verne4.htm


There is also a book (in danish): Bogen om Jules Verne by Susanne Vebel.
It was published 30 years ago and has been out of print for a long time. I got
my copy second-hand. It has detailed lists (up to approx. 1972), it also deals
with theatre and movies. It also has an error or two ;-)

Based on this book, I expanded an access database previously published on the Verne-forum
with some danish entries. I will be happy to send it to you, if you are interested. It is 184 kBytes.


      Best wishes

             Lejf.

That's good news. According to the title, it's Michel's revision of Jules'
novel, not the original version. You know that Michel rewrote all
posthumous novels of his father. Jules wrote "Le Beau Danube jaune" which
became "Le Pilote du Danube" with Michel's modifications.
Do you know about a bibliography of the Danish Verne translations?

Enjoy your reading!
