Jules Verne
儒勒·凡尔纳
Jules Verne’s classic novel Around the World in Eighty Days is a true prototype for the adventure story. This new illustrated version captures Phileas Fogg’s thrilling race around the globe in a fresh modern and original way. Will he and his manservant Passepartout beat the clock and win their bet? Francesca Rossi’s splendid illustrations bring the tale’s many landscapes and vivid atmosphere to life.
Shocking his stodgy colleagues at the exclusive Reform Club enigmatic Englishman Phileas Fogg wagers his fortune undertaking an extraordinary and daring enterprise: to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days. With his French valet Passepartout in tow Verne’s hero traverses the far reaches of the earth all the while tracked by the intrepid Detective Fix a bounty hunter certain he is on the trail of a notorious bank robber.
One night in the reform club Phileas Fogg bets his companions that he can travel across the globe in just eighty days. Breaking the well-established routine of his daily life he immediately sets off for Dover with his astonished valet Passepartout. Passing through exotic lands and dangerous locations they seize whatever transportation is at hand - whether train or elephant - overcoming set-backs and always racing against the clock.

IN WHICH PHILEAS FOGG AND PASSEPARTOUT ACCEPT EACH OTHER THE ONE AS MASTER THE OTHER AS MAN
Mr. Phileas Fogg lived in 1872 at No. 7 Saville Row Burlington Gardens the house in which Sheridan died in 1814. He was one of the most noticeable members of the Reform Club though he seemed always to avoid attracting attention; an enigmatical personage about whom little was known except that he was a polished man of the world. People said that he resembled Byron—at least that his head was Byronic; but he was a bearded tranquil Byron who might live on a thousand years without growing old.
Certainly an Englishman it was more doubtful whether Phileas Fogg was a Londoner. He was never seen on 'Change nor at the Bank nor in the counting-rooms of the "City"; no ships ever came into London docks of which he was the owner; he had no public employment; he had never been entered at any of the Inns of Court either at the Temple or Lincoln's Inn or Gray's Inn; nor had his voice ever resounded in the Court of Chancery or in the Exchequer or the Queen's Bench or the Ecclesiastical Courts. He certainly was not a manufacturer; nor was he a merchant or a gentleman farmer. His name was strange to the scientific and learned societies and he never was known to take part in the sage deliberations of the Royal Institution or the London Institution the Artisan's Association or the Institution of Arts and Sciences. He belonged in fact to none of the numerous societies which swarm in the English capital from the Harmonic to that of the Entomologists founded mainly for the purpose of abolishing pernicious insects.
