Congratulations, both for the idea and for the literature you chose the Count of Montecristo and Great Expectations, for different reasons are among my preferred books. The Journal des Debats is available online. The Conte of Montecristo was published according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Count_of_Monte_Cristo#Publication https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Count_of_Monte_Cristo#Publ... > from 28 August 1844 to 15 January 1846 The original (book) has 117 Chapters: http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0720/2007023856.html http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0720/2007023856.html As a matter of fact the first date there is chapter 1: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k446668c.item https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k446668c.item And on the last date ther is chapter 117: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k447166b/ https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k447166b/ And an indication that it is the fourth "part" and the dates where the previous "sub-parts" were published. They are not sequential (i.e. every day), and they have long gaps, so, without checking the exact dates, it seems plausible that it was actually pubished in 117 times.
