Default handling of two part last names in author sort?

Is there a way to configure the default behaviour of author sort (maybe in the "Author sort name algorithm") to handle common two part last names? That is, a last name that uses a prefix such as la,...

Thank you. It's good to know that what I want to do is actually possible.

I've made more progress. After fixing the epub, especially the .opf file, with a plain text editor, it can now be load...

It's not a question of having a working example. Several are available. (Just don't save them after viewing in Sigil or they will be "corrected", too. Or import into Tobi.) Nor am I saying that...

It's not that I object to doing some of the work manually. The problem is that even that doesn't work. The only thing that I've found that works is syncing at the paragraph level - which is NOT what...

So...I've been playing around with Tobi/Sigil/Notepad. It's been a bit frustrating.

Keroberos and Hitch, I didn't do the initial conversion - have no idea how it was done - although it appears to have originated from a scanned physical document. There is not much I can do about the...

Thanks! I didn't even realise HtmlTidy was turned on. I'd be very happy if Sigil was just a little less "helpful."

Most of the <span></span> were introduced (I believe) by the original conversion...
