Around the World in Eighty Days / Le Tour du Monde en Quatre-Vingts Jours: Illustrated English-French Parallel Text Bilingual Edition / Texte Parallèle Anglais-Français Édition Bilingue Illustré - Softcover
Synopsis
Around the World in Eighty Days is Jules Verne's masterpiece of adventure fiction (first published in 1872) that has captured the imaginations of generations of readers – and continues to mesmerize us today. In the story, Phileas Fogg, a wealthy English gentleman, and his newly employed French valet Passepartout attempt to circumnavigate the world in 80 days on a wager of £20,000 (equivalent to about £1,800,000 in 2021) set by his friends at the Reform Club.
Now available in a bilingual edition, with English and French side by side. The perfect way to learn French – by reading Jules Verne's charming original text with English translation right by side to guide you in case you need help. It makes it very suitable for learning both French and English.
Parallel texts are a very useful and versatile tool in the language learning process. It’s one of the best ways to experience the original text and authentic linguistic environment even for the less confident readers because the help is just a glance away to check the other language. The parallel text also facilitates access to more challenging texts for the language learner.
Original illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville and Léon Benett

Seller: Les Livres des Limbes, Chisseaux, France
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. De Neuville, Alphonse; Benett, Léon (illustrator). Minor corner wear almost new. 18 x 25,5 cm., 217 pages English-French Parallel Text Bilingual Edition "produced in 2021 for Smart Books lby Raul Kask." This is something of a smokescreen for an Amazon POD using small scale reproductions of the original illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville and Leon Benett along with the public domain 1873 English translation by Towle. Though uninteresting for collectors or literati, it is useful for language students of either French or English to have the side-by-side layout. Book. Seller Inventory # 023540
