Book The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature From 1700 to 1720  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature From 1700 to 1720 Classic Reprint written by Geoffroy Atkinson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature From 1700 to 1720 This study is the continuation of a book on the Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature before 1700 (I). In October, 1916, I began an investigation of this type of novel at the suggestion of M. Gustave Lanson, who was at that time lecturing at Columbia University, and whom it was my good fortune to serve as office assistant. The extent of the subject made it necessary to limit the first volume of the study, arbitrarily, to a consideration of the Extraordinary Voyages before 1700. It is my purpose in this second volume to consider the novels of the same type which were published in the years 1700-1720. The year 1720 is not an arbitrary date. It marks the publication of one of the important Extraordinary Voyages in French Literature. It also marks the beginning of a period of strong English influence in the French voyage novel. Until the year 1720, the novel of Extraordinary Voyage developed gradually in French Literature, without any great indebtedness either to English or to Spanish writers. The realistic setting of French Extraordinary Voyages was based almost entirely upon French accounts of travel.

THE EXTRAORDINARY VOYAGE IN FRENCH LITERATURE CHAPTER I DESCRIPTIONS OF REAL VOYAGES 1. Illustrated Cosmographies. 2. Realism in some accounts of Voyages after 1600. 3. Interest in Accounts of Voyages. 1. Illustrated Cosmographies Widespread interest in geography in the Middle Ages is evidenced by "cosmographies" of the type of the Image du Monde. These fantastic cosmographies, such as that of Maitre Gossouin,1 were followed, in the closing years of the 16th century, by a cosmography in the modern sense of the word. In this, and in subsequent collections of accounts of voyages in the 17th century, it is possible to trace a growing interest on the part of the public in descriptions of far-off lands, and an increasing amount of realism in the accounts of voyages published. The cosmography of the father and sons De Bry was published from 1590 to 1635. It is generally divided into the Long Voyages and the Short Voyages (Grands et Petits Voyages). One part deals with the history of the dis 1 L'Image du mania de Maitre Gossouin, printed at Lausanne, 1913. (Bibliography under Gossouin.) This work of Gossouin is cited as a type.

The many volumes, containing accounts of voyages, shipwrecks, explorations, descriptions of fauna and flora, tables of Latin and Indian languages, are fertile in maps. But their...
