17725001027London: Printed for J. Nourse and T. Davies 1772. Quarto with five folding maps and a folding plate of canoes; an excellent copy in a pale polished calf binding by Aquarius spine gilt. <p><p>The first English edition of the first French circumnavigation the great French voyage of the Cook period in many ways responsible for the pervasive notions of tropical paradise and the noble savage. This English version was translated by Johann Reinhold Forster and has an introduction by him according to the preface although the translation at least is now thought to have been the work of Forster's son Georg. Forster senior calls the voyage "a work written by a learned intelligent and judicious traveller which abounds with remarkable events and curious observations." and says that he has edited "and partially vindicated the British nation where we thought the author had been unjustly partial".</p> <p>The publication of Bougainville's narrative did a great deal to build the notion of a romantic paradise in the South Seas. Bougainville showed the influence of Jean-Jacques Rousseau in naming Tahiti "Nouvelle Cythère" after Kythera the small island off the coast of southern Greece which in Greek mythology provided a sanctuary for Aphrodite goddess of love. The reality was less sublime: he took Aoutourou back with him from Tahiti to Paris giving him lessons in French for the remainder of the voyage but the uprooted Tahitian just didn't get it: Forster with typical arrogance dismissed him as "stupid". He was allowed to go home on a subsequent voyage but died of smallpox on the way another tragic minor player in the history of discovery and colonisation.</p> <p>Bougainville headed into the Pacific discovering the Tuamotos before in April sighting and claiming possession of Tahiti unaware of Wallis's visit less than a year before. He continued on finally reaching the New Hebrides and 'La Austrialia del Espíritu Santo' discovered by Quirós in 1606 and believed to be part of the supposed Southern Continent. The only way to determine this Bougainville resolved was to head further to the west in the hope of sighting the eastern coast of New Holland. 'This he did only to be impeded by the Great Barrier Reef and although several of his crew claimed to have sighted land this was not confirmed and the ships were headed to the N. Nevertheless Bougainville concluded that he was close to some extensive land and in running westwards from Espíritu Santo he had dared to face the risk of the legendary lee-shore of New Holland and New Guinea even though prudence shortage of food and the condition of his vessels would have justified his heading northwards at an earlier date' Colin Jack-Hinton The Search for the Islands of Solomon p. 256; G. A. Wood The Discovery of Australia pp. 369-79 observes that had Bougainville persevered 'he would have come to the Australian coast near Cooktown and would likely enough have been wrecked where Cook was wrecked two years later'.</p> </p> .
