Just published and delivered across the Atlantic, we've got our hands on the three volumes of a new book about the history and variety of translations of Alice in Wonderland round the world - Jèrriais, of course, is included. Volume 1 contains essays by literary scholars, linguists and translators about translations in each language - Geraint Jennings has provided a chapter on his Jèrriais version. Volume 2 contains an extract from each translation back-translated into English with commentaries to illuminate the choices and strategies of each translator (the same extract, the Mad Hatter's tea party, is compared). Volume 3 contains bibliographical and publishing histories for editions and translations.
Alice in a World of Wonderlands explyique:
Three volumes with 251 volunteer writers covering Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland in 174 languages.
The book is believed to be the most extensive analysis ever done about one English language novel translated into so many languages.
It was compiled for the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland in 2015.
Smithsonian magazine rapporte:

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is a world-wide phenomenon! Published in 1865, it is one of the most quoted works of fiction in the world, one of the most translated, and has never been out of print.

There are 7,609 editions (and counting) that have been translated in 174 languages.
On view from September 16 to November 15, 2015, the exhibition represents the most extensive analysis ever done of one English-language novel rendered into so many languages. The presentation of 140 translations is based on a three- volume book of the same title...
