| Chapter One A) AXEL & HIS UNCLE Professor Lidenbrock was a famous geologist of the nineteenth century. He gave lectures in the university of Hamburg in Germany. He knew more about the Earth than any other scientist. Axel was his nephew. He lived with his uncle after the death of his parents. Axel was proud to be the assistant of his uncle. One Sunday afternoon in May 1863 professor went home early. He was carrying a book in his hand and was very excited. Martha, his cook, was worried because his dinner was not ready.
B) THE OLD BOOK The professor sat in his study examining the book he had brought. He called Axle and talked to him about it and how it was fantastic. It was the translation of a famous Icelandic book which was written by a scientist of the twelfth century called "Snorri Sturlasson".
C) THE PRCHMENT A piece of parchment fell out of the book. There was a meassage written on it. At first he believed it was written in runes, the letters of the old Icelandic alphabet. Then he guessed it was written in Latin because scientists of the sixteenth century wrote about their discoveries in Latin. He found that the writing on the parchment was not the same as the writing of the book. He concluded that the parchment was not written by the writer of the book, but written later by its owner.
THE PROBLEM OF THE PARCHMENT With the help of a magnifying glass the Professor could read on the parchment the name of its writer "Arne Saknussemm". He was a famous Icelandic scientist of the sixteenth century. The Professor could not make any sense of the writing. The letters were mixed up. It was written in a secret code. The Professor could not explain why Arne hid what he had discovered and wanted to keep it secret.
THE PROFESSOR'S ANGER The Professor was greatly excited because he was unable to break the secret code of the message on the parchment. He did not eat anything. He went out in anger. Martha, the cook, looked at him anxiously and said that he would die of hunger.

| Chapter Two
A) AXEL SOLVES THE SECRET CODE Axel tried to break the secret code of the parchment. He tried every combination of letters to form Latin words but he failed. By chance, he read two Latin words "crater of the earth". This enabled him to read and understand the message. The message was surprising. The man said he was able to go to the center of the earth. Axel decided not to tell his uncle about his discovery. He was sure the Professor would insist on doing it himself. He wanted to burn the parchment but couldn't as the Professor entered at the same moment.
B) AXEL TELLS HIS UNCLE ABOUT HIS DISCOVERY The Professor spent the night and part of the day looking at the parchment and trying to break the secret code, but be couldn't. he stopped eating and could not sleep. So, Axel felt sorry for him and told him about his discovery. The message said, "Go down into the crater of Sneffles which was touched by the shadow of scartairs before July. You will reach the center of the earth as I did. "The Professor became very happy. He gave a great cry and jumped to his feet and the books flew everywhere.
C) THE PROFESSOR'S DECISION TO MAKE THE JOURNEY The Professor and Axel had their dinner. The Professor decided to make the journey to the centre of the earth. The Professor sat in his study and praised Axel's cleverness. He asked Axel to bring the Atlas. They saw the places that Arne had mentioned ذكرها in his message. Sneffles was an extinct volcano. It had not erupted since 1229. It had several craters but one of them only led to the centre of the earth. Axel told his uncle that the volcano might erupt and that the centre of the earth was very hot. The Professor did not change his mind. They would see for themselves. They would leave for Iceland in two days.

| Chapter Three A) THE JOURNEY TO ICELAND The Professor and Axel prepared for their journey. They packed guns, tools and scientific instruments into boxes. They travelled on a steamer to Copenhagen where they got letters of introduction to important people in Iceland. From Copenhagen they sailed to the capital of Iceland. The Professor was seasick most of the voyage. In the capital of Iceland, they met Dr. Fridrikson. He told the Professor about the Iceland volcanoes which were not explored and suggested for him, Snaffles volcano. He also arranged for a guide called Hans to go with them.
B) THE JOURNEY TO SNEFFLES Hans led the Professor and Axel out of the capital of Iceland. They travelled for three days in the countryside. There were hardly any animals or crops. They had to cross inlets and sometimes they had to wait until the tide was out. The Icelanders were kind and helpful. The characters slept in farmhouses. The Icelanders gave them the best food and drink and refused to take any money. Then the characters climbed up through sharp rocks. Axel got tired while the Professor walked very quickly. Axel was frightened and told his uncle the volcano might not be extinct. Axel dreamt that he was inside a volcano and he was shot out of it like a rocket. The three men climbed up and it was hard for them to breathe. At last, they reached the top of Sneffels which looked like a cone. They camped at the edge of the crater.
C) THE THREE CHIMNEYS The next morning, they began to go down to the bottom of the crater with the help of ropes. At the bottom they found three chimneys. The Professor discovered on the rock letters which spelt the name Arne Saknussemm. This meant they were on the right way to the centre of the earth. The characters couldn't find out the right chimney which they would descent. There was no shadow of Scartaris because there was no sun.
