<P> In 1996 Penguin Classics published a new translation by Robin Buss . Buss's translation updated the language, making the text more accessible to modern readers, and restored content that was modified in the 1846 translation because of Victorian English social restrictions (for example, references to Eugénie's lesbian traits and behaviour) to reflect Dumas' original version . </P> <P> In addition to the above there have also been many abridged translations such as an 1892 edition published by F.M Lupton, translated by Henry L. Williams (this translation was also released by M.J Ivers in 1892 with Williams using the pseudonym of Professor William Thiese). A more recent abridgement is the translation by Lowell Blair for Bantam Classics in 1956 . </P> <P> The first Japanese translation by Kuroiwa Shūroku was entitled "Shigai Shiden Gankutsu - ou" (史 外 史伝 巌 窟王, "a historical story from outside history, the King of the Cavern"), and serialized from 1901--1902 in the Yorozu Chouhou newspaper, and released in book form in four volumes by publisher Aoki Suusandou in 1905 . Though later translations use the title "Monte Cristo - haku" (モンテ ・ クリスト 伯, the Count of Monte Cristo), the "Gankutsu - ou" title remains highly associated with the novel and is often used as an alternative . As of March 2016, all movie adaptations of the novel brought to Japan used the title "Gankutsu - ou", with the exception of the 2002 film, which has it as a subtitle (with the title itself simply being "Monte Cristo"). </P> <P> The novel is popular in Japan, and has spawned numerous adaptations, the most notable of which are the novels Meiji Gankutsu - ou by Taijirou Murasame and Shin Gankutsu - ou by Kaitarō Hasegawa . Its influence can also be seen in how one of the first prominent cases of miscarriage of justice in Japan, in which an innocent man was charged with murder and imprisoned for half a century, is known in Japanese as the "Yoshida Gankutsu - ou incident" (吉田 岩窟 王 事件). </P>
