1772219101772 Voyages of Louis Bougainville Pacific Ocean TAHITI Falkland Islands MAPS 2v SETLouis Antoine de Bougainville was an 18th-century French explorer who after serving in the American Revolution gained notoriety for his attempt to circumnavigate the world. This voyage became famous for being the first expedition to make records of the Falkland Islands and other islands near Papua New Guinea. The two-ship expedition which began in 1766 spent much time in Tahiti and Samoa gaining information on the local tribes and much of what we know now of these peoples is attributed to Bougainville and his expedition.

1773WRCAM47173Neuchatel: Société Thypographique sic 1773. Two volumes bound in one. xxiv187; 2523pp. 12mo. Contemporary mottled calf gilt. Extremities very lightly worn. Some faint dampstaining in upper gutter margin on first few leaves minor scattered foxing. Very good. "Nouvelle édition augmentée." A reduced edition of this important work first published in 1771. This edition includes a brief dictionary of nautical terms twenty- two pages. Bougainville first undertook an expedition to the Falkland Islands and Patagonia at his own expense to secure them for French colonization. To avoid possible conflict due to Spain's envy of this acquisition France gave up the territory to her. The narrative of that expedition was related in THE HISTORY OF A VOYAGE TO THE MALOUINE ISLANDS. Paris 1770. After delivering the Falklands to Spain Bougainville was ordered across the Pacific to the East Indies and then home. The completion of the three-year voyage marked the first official French circumnavigation and inspired much French interest in the Pacific islands. The party collected abundant natural history information concerning the regions visited; a chapter on the Falklands gives the history of their settlement as well. The expedition stopped at many South Sea islands among them Tahiti and included is a long section on that island as well as a vocabulary of the natives. Bougainville was in Buenos Aires when the order arrived for the expulsion of the Jesuits from Paraguay which he describes in detail. An extraordinary capstone to this remarkable voyage was that Bougainville lost only seven out of two hundred men. COX I p.55. SABIN 6864. HILL 163 1st ed. BORBA DE MORAES p.115. DU RIETZ 117.

17734504180Neuchâtel: Société Thypographique sic 1773. In fine original condition. Two volumes in one small octavo; a fine copy in an attractive contemporary binding of marbled calf sides bordered in gilt the flat spine ornately gilt with a repeating drawer-handle design. <p><p>A most attractive copy of the Neuchâtel version of the official account of the Bougainville voyage based on the first French edition of 1771. This was the first official French circumnavigation and in many ways the most consequential of all the many French voyages into the Pacific commemorated on today's maps by a multitude of geographical names. Bougainville's description of his travels in the Pacific created enormous interest in France and was largely responsible for building up the romantic vision of a South Sea paradise where Rousseau's noble savage lived in a state of blissful innocence.</p> <p>Bougainville's expedition passed through the Straits of Magellan in January 1768. After some time looking for the mythical "Davis Land" said to be off the Chilean coast they started on a direct route across the Pacific. They discovered the Tuamotus sighted Tahiti in April then visited Samoa sailed through Melanesia sighted the Great Barrier Reef and passed through the Solomons and New Britain to Batavia.</p> <p>Bougainville not knowing of Wallis's stop there a year earlier thought that he had discovered Tahiti and his lengthy account of the island group is an interesting counterpart to Wallis's account. The vocabulary of 300 words that he prints is the first such vocabulary to appear of any Polynesian language.</p> <p>Unillustrated this edition is in a much smaller format than the first edition; the addition referred to in the title is a new 22-page dictionary of nautical terms. This version proved popular and was reprinted several times at Neuchâtel. It is quite scarce today: there is no copy in the catalogue of the Hill Collection.</p> </p> .

The purpose of this expedition was to explore the Pacific especially the Australian coast and New Guinea to examine the geographical and ecological conditions for economic benefit and to extend the influence of the French crown by seizing land. From an economic point of view the journey was not very successful but in Europe the description of Tahiti shaped the image of the island as a paradise where people seem to live free of constraints. Bouganville's travelogue became a bestseller that spread throughout Europe and the myth of the South Seas continues to inspire philosophers artists and writers to this day.</p> Saillant & Nyon hardcover

Hill 165. Sabin 6869. Account of the first official French circumnavigation. Louis de Bougainville had been aide-de-camp to Montcalm in Canada and acted for the French at their surrender at Montreal in 1760. A chapter of this work is devoted to the natural history of the Falkland Islands. "During this voyage Bougainville visited Rio de Janeiro Notevideo and Patagonia in South America; he was also in Buenos Aires when the order for the expulsion of the Jesuits of Paraguay arrived which he describes in detail. He then proceeded through the Strait of Magellan and across the Pacific visiting the Tuamotu Archipelago Tahiti the Samoa Islands the New Hebrides and the Salomon Louisiade and New Britain archipelagos. There is a long description of Tahiti containing observations on the natives as wel as a vocabulary of 300 words used on the island"--Hill. Bougainville's voyage created a great deal of interest among the French in the Pacific which resulted in the voyages of du Fresne and de La Perouse. The flowering vine is named for him as well as the largest island in the Solomons. He later took part in the American Revolution survived the French revolution and was made a senator and count by Napoleon. unknown

Bougainville was the first Frenchman to sail around the world. In 1771 Bougainville published his travel log from the expedition under the title "Le voyage autour du monde par la frégate La Boudeuse et la flûte L'Étoile". The book describes the geography biology and anthropology of Argentina then a Spanish colony Patagonia Tahiti and Indonesia then a Dutch colony. The book was a sensation especially the description of Tahitian society. Bougainville described it as an earthly paradise where men and women lived in blissful innocence far from the corruption of civilisation.Bougainville's descriptions powerfully expressed the concept of the noble savage influencing the utopian thoughts of philosophers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau before the advent of the French Revolution. Denis Diderot's book Supplément au voyage de Bougainville retells the story of Bougainville's landing on Tahiti narrated by an anonymous reader to one of his friends. Diderot used his fictional approach including a description of the Tahitians as noble savages to criticise Western ways of living and thinking.Sabin 6864. </em> unknown
