Chapter 2 ready for PL https://librivox.org/uploads/smijen/portraitdedoriangray_02_wilde_128kb.mp3

Duration 44:57

Sonia, please use the Gallica text for PL, (link is in the PM that I sent you) as I have changed to this text for the project. I will work on changes for sections 00 and 01, and upload them as the editing for those are done.

Thank you, Sonia!

Hi Linda, thanks for the PM. This is all OK with me. I just wanted to post and let both you and Sonia know that I'm having a crazy few days in Real Life so I will look at this when I am a little more focused. I don't foresee it being a huge hassle to make these changes in the database, I just need to be a little more rested and alert than I am now.

[off-topic, but French-related] Part of the crazy-busy week I'm having was a work-related conference with a bunch of government people, which happened today. In Canada, anything government-related is bilingual. I was actually able to follow almost everything the French speakers were saying! I was very proud of myself, but oh boy, it sure is taxing for my old brain.[/off-topic]

Hi Sara,
I’m so sorry you’re having a harrowing time right now with things. But good for you that you could understand just about everything in French at those meetings!

As far as the MW, there is no pressing need to do anything in the near future. I will just proceed with the recordings, and you will be able to take care of the MW whenever you have the and you so much again for your understanding, and take a rest. You deserve it!

Linda

super Linda, this is a perfect PL ok run-through.

I loved the several mocking laughs of Sir Henry

While Dorian sometimes sounded like Alice in Wonderland when he was replying so petulantly LOL

excellent chapter.

Oh and don't forget to note down the time on the spot-checks I need to do for Intro and Chapter 1. Unless you plan on re-reading, but I think there were only minor discrepancies, so I think it would save us all some time if you only changed those.

Sonia

Lol. Yes, Dorian is in his petulant, “stomping my feet if I don’t get what I want” stage.

And yes, I planned to mark the exact time stamps of where I make the changes to 00 and 01. That will definitely make it easier for you to Spot PL. I am definitely not re-recording the entire chapters.

Thank you for your PL! I know you’re really busy with everything!

Here is the link to the Eugène Tardieu text, which is what I will be using for this project:

I fixed a few minor differences in the Preface and uploaded it:

Sonia, for Spot PL

0:28: "traduit par Eugène Tardieu, 1920." (I couldn't find his dates of birth and death, so I used the date of publication of this text.)

1:12: "dans les belles choses sont cultivés."

Merci, Sonia!

Sonia,
I have no way of changing the link to the text in the first post, which is the main page. All I can do is change the book summary, which I will do.

You should be able to edit your own posts. Go to the top post in this thread, look in the top right corner of the post, and you should see an edit button. Then you can go in and change the link, right after it says "Text source: "

Ealswythe · Post by **Ealswythe** » November 13th, 2017, 5:36 pm

I've tried that, but I will try it again. Thanks!

Thank you so much, Sara! It worked this time! For some reason, before, when I tried that, it would only show the summary part. But now, I was able to scroll down and see everything. It's done!

I'll be really busy this month with work, but I will record whenever I get a chance.

Hi Sonia,
I spot edited all the sections with different words in the text that we are currently using. For your ease of PL, I copied all the lines that I changed, with the time stamps.

https://librivox.org/uploads/smijen/por ... _128kb.mp3

15:58-16:02 "Je ne veux aucune influence extérieur dans ma vie."

16:03 "Vous savez, Harry, combien ma nature est indépendante."

17:35 "Oui, elle me fait l'effet d'un paon, sauf pour la beauté, dit Lord Henry, effeuillant la marguerite de ses longs doigts nerveux..."

21:37 "Vous aimez tout le monde, ce qui est comme si vous n'aimiez personne."

21:51 "...qui, comme des floches de soie blanche, fuyaient dans le bleu turquoise du ciel d'été."

31:11-31:20 "Parce que, sans le vouloir, j'y ai mis l'expression de toute cette étrange idolâtrie artistique dont je ne lui ai jamais parlé."

34:16-34:24 "C'est comme la boutique d'un bric-à-brac monstrueux e poussiérieux (sic) où toute chose est cotée au-dessus de sa réelle valeur."

43:49-34:51 "vous serez parfaitement froid et indifférent."

35:04-35:11 "...et le pis est que, lorsqu'on a un roman, de n'importe quelle espèce, il vous laisse désabusé."

35:14-35:20 "Aussi longtemps que je vivrai, la personnalité de Dorian Gray me dominera."

Thank you, Sonia! I know you're really busy with family right now.
