Talk:Eugène Sue

message: The article takes a rather negative view of Eugene Sue's work. Presumably, Sue's reputation was not high with critics when the 11th edition of EB came out. It would be nice to have a more modern reassessment. His most famous work, The Wandering Jew, is 1,350 pages long and was very popular during its day. There might be something of value in the work to sustain an interest over that large a number of pages.
I noticed that the URL has spaces in it and i mean the %s, if someone were to replace those with a _ that would be fine.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.91.245.120 (talk) 06:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Does anyone have any more specific information about the alleged parallels between Sue and Joly? I mean, something similar to the way that people have lined up lists of passages from the DIALOGUES and the PROTOCOLS and shown that clear parallels exist. Is there some similar work done showing a list of parallels from something which Sue wrote and Joly's play? i read through volume 3 of THE MYSTERIES OF A PEOPLE or THE HISTORY OF A PROLETARIAN FAMILY DOWN THROUGH THE AGES and nothing stood out immediately as parallel with the text in Joly's DIALOGUES. Does anyone have more specific information on what Joly is alleged to have copied from Sue and from which text by Sue? Simply citing THE MYSTERIES OF A PEOPLE isn't specific enough because that in itself is a huge 3-volume work, where each individual volume is itself pretty large. It's also been published in the format of about 21 separate smaller books. There is even a significantly smaller version published in 3 volumes under the title THE RIVAL RACES or THE SONS OF JOEL. That smaller version certainly does not have any passages which spring out as naturally parallel with Joly. I've read it completely. I've only read volume 3 of the full edition, because I assumed that the volume which had material relating to the French Revolution would be most likely to have been the one which Joly allegedly cribbed from. But I didn't notice any natural parallels in the text that could be made with the DIALOGUES. Sue has written other books. THE WANDERING JEW contained Jesuit conspiracies in a way which did remind me in a general sense of the PROTOCOLS, but with that book also I didn't find anything which stood out as parallel passages duplicated in the DIALOGUES. Does anyone really have specific information on which work of Sue's Joly is alleged to have cribbed from and what are the listings of passages which in each author's work that can be invoked to argue such?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.86.226.13 (talk) 01:45, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I am not sure that the second footnote leads to an appropriate ref. Can someone explaint it or is it just a fake footnote?
(The first leads to a blog-like site where the ref. to vengeance can be found, but not the best way to give credit to the quote...)
(As for the 3d (Eco's'), I didn't check it yet).
This is to say that I remove the  No-reference-tag but remain perplex about secondary sources. Hence the 2 tags of the current version.--Pierre et Condat (talk) 10:21, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
