Alcide Poitrineux et Simon Morgaz : deux mises au point sur Jules Verne et le théâtre

Stefan Schmidt et Volker Dehs

Abstract

In 1883 Jules Verne was involved in the writing of a play that was never performed, Les Erreurs d'Alcide. Recent findings provide further details on this collaboration. In Famille-sans-nom (Family Without a Name), the family name of the heroes is Morgaz. A few years after the publication of the novel, a play called Simon Morgaz was on stage in 1896.
