G.G. | 238 comments I wonder if I might trouble a librarian to distinguish between the two different "Caroline Stone"s who appear as authors on Goodreads. One of them (quite unknown to me) appears to be an osteopath; the other (known to me, and most definitely not Caroline Stone) is the translator of the following books:
An Account of Japan, 1609 (wrongly attributed to Caroline Stone Do);
Curious and Amazing Adventures of Maria Ter Meetelen; Twelve Years a Slave, the; and
The Story of My Life
Many thanks in advance for your help!

Abcdarian | 26579 comments I think I have them sorted: Caroline Stone is a translator and historian; Caroline Stone is the art curator. The osteopath turns out to have a middle initial Caroline A. Stone.

Brilliant! Thank you very much indeed for sorting those three Caroline Stones out! One tiny correction to the entry for Caroline Stone, translator and historian, if I may: The Jimbun Kagashu Kenkyusho mentioned in her biographical entry is correctly transliterated as Jimbun Kagaku Kenkyusho. The institution's official English name is Institute for Research in Humanities, see: http://www.zinbun.kyoto-u.ac.jp/e/
