The Upside-Downs of Little Lady Lovekins and Old Man Muffaroo (1903-1904; graph coll under same title 1905) by Gustave Verbeek (1867-1937) can lay some claim to being the world's first fantasy comic strip: its two protagonists adventured in a world of bizarre creatures and strange landscapes. (Verbeek here also innovated the idea of creating a strip that could also be read upside-down – rotating the page gave the conclusion of the same six-panel story, each title character becoming the other when inverted – but no other artist has yet had the courage to pick up this particular gauntlet.) Verbeek followed this with the rather more nightmarish Terrors of the Tiny Tads (1905-1916), which appeared along with another new strip, Winsor McCay's Little Nemo in Slumberland (1905-1927).

Comment 2016: no change in wording; resolution of the third question mark


2017

Does it matter whether the name of the work differs only in subitle

Undine: A Northern Romance
Undine

or punctuation that may represent equally be represented as a subtitle

Undine, a Northern Romance --compare with above

or use of ampersand and dash

Sintram and His Companions
Sintram & His Companions

--all that in contrast to a difference in the main title

Sintram and His Companions
Sintram

For shortfiction do we have a consensus that both fiction title records and chapbook title records should fully represent the different translations, differently fashioned names of the work, and differently fashioned names of the writer? --so that with 2 translations, 2 variant names of the work, and 2 variant names of the writer, we have potentially 8 shortfiction title records and 8 chapbook title records?

Or is some economy appropriate? A single chapbook title record that covers the same original story in multiple translations, or multiple names of the work (differences that show up only in publication titles and perhaps shortfiction titles), or multiple names of the writer.

Friedrich de la Motte-Fouqué

Friedrich De La Motte Fouque

Baron Friedrich de La Motte Fouqué (canonical)

likely to be phoney

Fouqué's Works #3, 1844 (really 1844?) Fouqué's Works #2, 1845

Baron Friedrich de La Motte Fouqué may not be in use by publishers --or worst of all, in use by some current e-publishers who use it as the ISFDB canonical name

"Baron" or "Freiherr" appears in about one-third of the 15 child-variant names but some of those may be spurious.

User talk:MartyD#Diacritics as well as caps

There are multiple issues here.
  1. The manual implies that it's possible to book a work or a publication as by Author name spelled with diacritics, also as by otherwise-identical Author name spelled without diacritics. And in some respects including diacritics it instructs meticulous entry of that version which matches the title page --at least, for a book (something similar for book/magazine contents), when title page/image is available and title page does show some explicit byline.
  2. Insofar as characters are supported but not distinguished, and we want to distinguish them, it's possible to disambiguate them manually, as we distinguish identical character strings when they refer to different entities (cf. "Richard Kennedy (I)", "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland [2]"). For instance "Willy Pogany" and "Willy Pogany [á]", or "Willy Pogány" and "Willy Pogány [a]".
  3. Your inchoate proposal, Vasha, evidently concerns which of multiple database names for a person should be the unique parent and which should be children. And you seem to have in mind that the criterion should be correctness in some sense, rather than its use by publishers. So you may be happy with "Mary Louisa Molesworth" as canonical name, "Mrs. Molesworth" as its variant. Or might prefer making canonical that version a living writer prefers, or that which a past writer preferred at a crucial time in life (compare the person's last legal name as Legal Name).

"Wizarding World" some current corporate entity or active partnership

I suppose I would create meta-series, not named Universe, in order to group material such as 1969 novel Bored of the Rings T22750 and 21c series Barry Trotter with the relevant works by JRRTolkien and friends, and by JKRowling and friends

Same as for 1980s/90s stories in the Peter Pan series (not up in Neverland Universe) and perhaps 100 latterday stories in the Oz series (not up in Oz Universe) --where even the last numbered novel

P.S. There is a database series Coville's Shakespeare, known as Shakespeare Retellings on the writer's official website [85]. Evidently Coville and his illustrators have done 7 of the bard's plays, including all 5 that we recognize. Amazon provides some Look Inside that shows the books to be heavily-illustrated, probably novelette-length stories. We have only 3 of them, as NOVELs.
