TYSSOT DE PATOT Simon
VOYAGES ET AVANTURES DE JAQUES MASSE
A Bourdeaux ie. The Hague: James L'Aveugle 1714. First Edition. 12mo pp. viii 508. Bound in contemporary calf neatly rebacked in antique style little rubbed some minor foxing soiling a very good tight copy. Rosenberg "A" Gove 217-219; Cioranescu 62587; Barbier IV 1103; Atkinson 'The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature' p. 70; Rosenberg pp. 84-5. The genuine first edition falsely dated. An important imaginary journey to Australia called a "landmark" by Atkinson. Based on a variety of real voyages the descriptions are believable and realistic. The author offers a detailed account of making a camp building a raft. While the book did not range much beyond the confines of the traditional Utopias of the times it did however include "living fossils" giant birds and strange flora that survived from prehistoric eras arguably making it one of the first modern Lost World novels. After being shipwrecked on the continent the narrator and a friend pressed on and developed a farm in "a plentiful fruitful country" until forced to flee by a treacherous woman. Tyssot de Patot 1655-1727 was a Huguenot who lived most of his life in Holland where he pursued a career as professor of Mathematics at the Athenaeum Illustre in Deventer the capital of the province of Overijssel.
