Paris Saillant & Nyon 1771. 4to. Near contemp. hcalf. Gilt spine with gilt lettering. Very light wear along edges. Stamps on title-page. 8 incl. htitle4171 pp. 20 engraved maps and charts numb. 1-19 16 bis of which 18 are folded including the large world map. 2 engraved plates numb. 1-2. Internally clean and fine a few leaves with marginal brownspots. � First edition of this famous circumnavigation being the first voyage around the world with professional naturalists and geographers onboard. Bougainville was the first Frenchman to sail around the world. <br><br>In 1771 Bougainville published his travel log from the expedition under the title "Le voyage autour du monde par la fr�gate La Boudeuse et la fl�te L'�toile". 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.<br><br>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 Suppl�ment 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.<br><br>Sabin 6864. unknown

Bougainville Louis Antoine de
VOYAGE AUTOUR DU MONDE PAR LA FR�GATE DU ROI LA BOUDEUSE ET LA FLUTE L'�TOILE EN 1766 1767 1768 & 1769
Paris: Saillant & Nyon 1771. 84173pp. with twenty-three maps and plates. Half title. Contemporary mottled calf gilt leather label. Minor shelf wear. Small contemporary bookplate of the Duc de Decr�s on front pastedown. Very minor foxing in margins of half title and last leaf. A remarkably bright and clean copy. Fine. First edition of this important work. 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. "Bougainville also touched at the Moluccas Batavia and Mauritius before he arrived once again in France in 1769. Although Bougainville made only a few important discoveries he created a great deal of interest among the French in the Pacific which resulted in the voyages of Marc-Joseph Marion de Fresne and Jean Fran�ois de La P�rouse. The largest island in the Solomons and two straits in the Pacific bear his name and the tropical flowering vine called bougainvillea was also named for him. Bougainville later took part in the American Revolution survived the French Revolution and was made a senator and count of the Empire by Napoleon I. Bougainville's accounts of Pacific Islanders in this work echoed Jean Jacques Rousseau's concepts of the 'noble savage' and inspired Denis Diderot to write his denunciation of European contact with indigenous peoples" - Hill. This copy belonged to Admiral later Duc Denis Decr�s Napoleon's Minister for the Navy and the Colonies from 1801 to 1814 with his bookplate on the front pastedown. Decr�s was the Minister directly responsible for Nicholas Baudin's voyage to Australia. Therefore there could have been much instructive value in the present volume for Decr�s who perhaps used Bougainville's experiences with regard to Baudin to assist in the various enquiries into voyage events many of them relating to Baudin's unfortunate command. A highly distinguished French naval provenance for one of the country's legendary travel narratives. HILL 163. SABIN 6864. O'REILLY & REITMAN 283. BORBA DE MORAES p.115. DU RIETZ 117. COX I p.55.

BOUGAINVILLE Louis Antoine de
Voyage autour du Monde par la frégate du roi La Boudeuse. Nouvelle édition augmentée.
Neuchâtel: Société Thypographique sic 1773. In fine original condition. Two volumes in one small octavo; a fine copy in a very attractive contemporary binding of marbled calf sides bordered in gilt the flat spine ornately gilt with a repeating drawer-handle design. An 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. 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. 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. 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. Société Thypographique [sic] unknown
