2005 Translated by A. J. Day & C. Vorwerk --from the 2005 title leaf, Acknowledgments, and Afterword (viewed as "Look inside" multiple formats at Amazon UK) This is the first published English-language translation of the story, according to A. J. Day's 2005 afterword: "With this edition I have attempted to recreate the original collection of stories [1812 French-language anthology Fantasmagoriana] in order to satisfy the reader's curiosity as to the source of Mary [Shelley]'s inspiration and to enable further academic study of the origins of Gothic and Science-fiction genres in English. Consequently three of the stories presented here are unique in that they appear, for the first time, in the English language."
