Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jacques Cartier, His Life and Voyages In thus enlarging the number of his judges, the writer ventures to express the hope that the same kindly criticism which he has so far met with, may attend him in the wider field. Whatever of imperfection there may be in his work, he can at least honestly say, that his earnest endeavour has been to set out in plain and truthful language the facts connected with the earliest dawn of Canadian history, and to give an accurate and faithful picture of the central figure in the scene. To that end the original records have been diligently studied and compared, and the most trivial statements of fact, whenever practicable, carefully verified.

Download or read book The Mariner of St. Malo written by Stephen Leacock and published by Glasgow, Brook. This book was released on 1915 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the town hall of the seaport of St Malo there hangs a portrait of Jacques Cartier, the great sea-captain of that place, whose name is associated for all time with the proud title of 'Discoverer of Canada.' The picture is that of a bearded man in the prime of life, standing on the deck of a ship, his bent elbow resting upon the gunwale, his chin supported by his hand, while his eyes gaze outward upon the western ocean as if seeking to penetrate its mysteries. The face is firm and strong, with tight-set jaw, prominent brow, and the full, inquiring eye of the man accustomed both to think and to act. The costume marks the sea-captain of four centuries ago. A thick cloak, gathered by a belt at the waist, enwraps the stalwart figure. On his head is the tufted Breton cap familiar in the pictures of the days of the great navigators. At the waist, on the left side, hangs a sword, and, on the right, close to the belt, the dirk or poniard of the period. How like or unlike the features of Cartier this picture in the town hall may be, we have no means of telling. Painted probably in 1839, it has hung there for more than seventy years, and the record of the earlier prints or drawings from which its artist drew his inspiration no longer survives. We know, indeed, that an ancient map of the eastern coast of America, made some ten years after the first of Cartier's voyages, has pictured upon it a group of figures that represent the landing of the navigator and his followers among the Indians of Gaspe. It was the fashion of the time to attempt by such decorations to make maps vivid. Demons, deities, mythological figures and naked savages disported themselves along the borders of the maps and helped to decorate unexplored spaces of earth and ocean. Of this sort is the illustration on the map in question. But it is generally agreed that we have no right to identify Cartier with any of the figures in the scene, although the group as a whole undoubtedly typifies his landing upon the seacoast of Canada.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jacques Cartier and His Four Voyages to Canada: An Essay, With Historical, Explanatory and Philological Notes Mr. Stephens has added to his translations a large number of notes on the voyages, and these, having been, as a rule, carefully condensed, must have cost the writer considerable time and trouble. In his notes to the third voyage, while referring to the story of Roberval's niece, who was put ashore on the Isle of Demons, with her lover and old nurse, Mr. Stephens remarks Modern writers have used the incident - among them, I think, Frechette. He might have added that Marguerite, by George Martin, of Montreal, is an admirable poetic version of the same ghastly legend. The essay closes with a list of recent works, which, in addition to those of older writers, are of interest to students in con nection with Cartier and his voyages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacques Cartier's voyages of 1534, 1535, and 1541constitute the first record of European impressions of the St Lawrence region of northeastern North American and its peoples. The Voyages are rich in details about almost every aspect of the region's environment and the people who inhabited it. As Ramsay Cook points out in his introduction, Cartier was more than an explorer; he was also Canada's first ethnographer. His accounts provide a wealth of information about the native people of the region and their relations with each other. Indirectly, he also reveals much about himself and about sixteenth-century European attitudes and beliefs. These memoirs recount not only the French experience with the Iroquois, but alo the Iroquois' discovery of the French. In addition to Cartier's Voyages, a slightly amended version of H.P. Biggar's 1924 text, the volume includes a series of letters relating to Cartier and the Sieur de Roberval, who was in command of cartier on the last voyage. Many of these letters appear for the first time in English. Ramsay Cook's introduction, 'Donnacona Discovers Europe,' rereads the documents in the light of recent scholarship as well as from contemporary perspectives in order to understand better the viewpoints of Cartier and the native people with whom he came into contact.

Download or read book Cartier written by Esther Averill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cartier: Sails the St. Lawrence By logbooks we mean the original narratives which were written from Cartier's own records of his voyages. It is believed that parts of the original narratives were written by Cartier, and other parts by a person, unknown to us today, who based his text on Cartier's logbooks. To simplify matters, these narratives are referred to in our story as the logbooks of Cartier. Like real detectives, modern historians have searched the European libraries, the town records, and the old secret papers of the kings for scraps of information which have contributed greatly to our understanding of these voyages. We are especially indebted to the research work of Dr. H. P. Biggar, a Canadian historian, who has written two books which we have used as source material through the courtesy of his publishers, the Public Archives of Canada. The first of these books is The Voyages of jacques Cartier, published with translations and notes; the sec ond, A Collection of Documents Relating to j'acques Cartier and the S iear de Roberval, from which we have gathered many of the facts in our chapter on the Portuguese spy, the King of France, and the Emperor of Spain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Precursors of Jacques Cartier, 1497-1534: A Collection of Documents Relating to the Early History of the Dominion of Canada In this volume an attempt has been made to bring together for the first time and to render accessible in English form the chief manuscript sources of the earliest history of Canada. The majority of these documents have appeared in print already, but the texts here given have, wherever possible, been either copied from or collated with the original manuscripts. In some few eases facsimiles have been used. The translations are in every case new, and in view of the publication of the original Latin, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, a somewhat free rendering has been adopted. It has not been considered necessary to translate the French documents. From these sources and from the printed volumes and atlases listed in the appendix has been compiled the introduction. Owing to the fragmentary nature of the material available this is necessarily an incomplete story. Many of the statements in the same are purely conjectural and must be considered as nothing more than working hypotheses. As such it is hoped that they may stimulate the interests or arouse the curiosity of fresh investigators. Should such a result follow, and the narrow bounds of our knowledge of early Canadian history be in consequence extended, one of the main objects of this volume will have been achieved. It is with gratitude and with pleasure that the editor acknowledges the valuable assistance of many friends and scholars.
