<P> The name of Beatrice, Snicket's dedicatee, may be an allusion to the poem La Beatrice by Charles Baudelaire . The poem references an "actor without a job," like the actor Count Olaf . The poem also begins with the line "In a burnt, ash - grey land without vegetation," similar to the Baudelaire mansion burning down at the beginning of the series . The name Beatrice could also be an allusion to Italian poet Dante . Dante dedicated all of his works to "Beatrice," with whom he was obsessed, and who was also dead, like Snicket's Beatrice . </P> <P> The series includes thirteen novels as follows: </P> <Ol> <Li> The Bad Beginning (1999) </Li> <Li> The Reptile Room (1999) </Li> <Li> The Wide Window (2000) </Li> <Li> The Miserable Mill (2000) </Li> <Li> The Austere Academy (2000) </Li> <Li> The Ersatz Elevator (2001) </Li> <Li> The Vile Village (2001) </Li> <Li> The Hostile Hospital (2001) </Li> <Li> The Carnivorous Carnival (2002) </Li> <Li> The Slippery Slope (2003) </Li> <Li> The Grim Grotto (2004) </Li> <Li> The Penultimate Peril (2005) </Li> <Li> The End (2006) </Li> </Ol> <Li> The Bad Beginning (1999) </Li>
