The expression "various authors" is used to credit creative works which are the result of a collaboration. In English it is more common to describe the authors of such a compilation collectively, for example by saying for what occasion the texts were written or by naming one writer, for example the first one in the alphabet, and then adding '' et al.'' It may be abbreviated as Vv.Aa., which is rarely used in English except by non-native speakers, who look for an exact equivalent to similar terms (usually abbreviated Aa.Vv.) in Italian, Spanish, and some other languages. The expansion of the acronym is the Latin expression ''auctores varii''.

Illiers-Combray
Illiers-Combray () is a commune in the Eure-et-Loir department in north central France. Population Literature ''Combray'' was the writer Marcel Proust's name for the village of Illiers (near the Cathedral town of Chartres), vividly depicted by him in the opening chapters of his vast semi-autobiographical novel ''In Search of Lost Time''. The home of Proust's "Aunt Léonie" in the heart of the village, where he spent much of his childhood, has been transformed into a museum to the writer's memory. It provides visitors with a delightful view of 19th-century provincial life as well as of the many Proustian mementos on display. It should be added that Proust scholars have recently claimed his descriptions of "Combray" owe as much to the author's stays in his uncle's home in Auteuil, near Paris, as to Illiers-Combray. As a tribute to Proust's literary masterpiece, the people of Illiers decided, in 1971, to change the town's name to ''Illiers-Combray'', on the occasion of the centen ...
