Notes: French Navy admiral and diplomat Louis Antoine de Bougainville 1729–1811 was commissioned by Louis XV in 1766 to circle the Earth in a voyage of exploration with the frigates La Boudeuse and L'Etoile. 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. Saillant & Nyon hardcover
