Thanks to ALL who have so far responded to my plea for help in teaching 


20,000 Leagues.  


I fear I am saddled with an inadequate translation since it lists no 


translator anywhere that I can find - It is a Watermill Classic calling 


itself "complete and unabridged". But I have ordered the Signet and an 


annotated version that was recommended and these should be on their way to me 


by the end of the week. 


While I fear the difficulties and denseness of the text may overwhelm some of 


the students, the thought of combining geography, science, philosophy, etc. 


is too good to pass up! 


Thank you so much for all of your advice, encouragement and information!  You 


are a fabulous group of folks!  


I will not begin teaching the novel until December or January so if you have 


any more suggestions, I am willing to accept them.>grin<


Again, Thank you so very much, Mary Rose-Shaffer
