Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature Before 1700 Although I had originally intended to make a complete study of the history of the Extraordinary Voyage as a type of novel in French Literature, I have been obliged, by the extent of the subject, to limit my study in the present volume to the period preceding the year 1700. It is my purpose to continue in a second volume the investigation of the Extraordinary Voyages published since that date. It is only fitting to say that without the suggestion of Professor Lanson the present work never would have been begun, and that, without his continued interest, it certam never would have been completed. If in its accomplishment any credit whatever is to be accorded, this will have been due in large measure to the inspira tion received from Professor Lanson. If on the other hand, errors of statement or of judgment are discovered in it, they may be set down as exclusively my own.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature From 1700 to 1720 In The Extraordinary Voyage in French Literature before 1700, I have acknowledged my indebtedness to M. Danson for his original suggestion of this field of research and for his continued interest while I was preparing that study for publication. It is a pleasure to acknowledge here the more recent inspiration and advice received from M. Lanson in the summer of 1920. His suggestions for this second book, at a time when I was reading in Paris and had access to the original documents, have been invaluable.

This book was released on 2017-01-02 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the INTRODUCTION 1. Definition The term Extraordinary Voyage is used in the present study to designate a novel of the following type: A fictitious narrative purporting to be the veritable account of a real voyage made by one or more Europeans to an existent but little known country - or to several such countries - together with a description of the happy condition of society there found, and a supplementary account of the travelers' return to Europe. By the terms of this definition the Extraordinary Voyage is an imaginary one. But even within the restrictions of a limited literary period, it would be futile to attempt to cover intensively so broad and varied a field as that of Imaginary Voyages in general. It is necessary to exclude from consideration accounts of travel by land only, of travel in familiar European countries, of voyages to other planets, of voyages made in dreams, by witchcraft, by charms, or other supernatural means. As the Extraordinary Voyage is an imaginary one - a novel - the term will not include accounts of voyages actually made, although these accounts may contain many or all of the characteristics of the Extraordinary Voyage barring that of a voyage made in the imagination rather than in reality. The term Extraordinary Voyage is then merely a label, convenient for purposes of classification. It implies, not of itself, but because it has been so defined here, the limitations which have been arbitrarily assigned to it. It is perhaps unfortunate that the terminology of literary history does not furnish a word which would imply the limitations above defined. The fact remains that there is no fitting term at present in use, so that limitation by definition becomes necessary. The reason for choosing the word "extraordinary" rather than any other is that the title Voyages extraordinaires has already been applied to this category by M. Gustave Lanson in designating the group of novels whose treatment is undertaken here.1 The main distinction between the Extraordinary Voyage as a type, and (for example) the Utopia of More or the Voyages of Cyrano de Bergerac, lies in the realistic treatment of the Extraordinary Voyage. The same distinction is found between the Extraordinary Voyage and the political satire of anagram names, or between the Extraordinary Voyage and the affected voyages in the lands of Love so common in the 17th century in France. It is precisely by the authenticated realism of their setting that the Extraordinary Voyage carried weight as works of religious, social, or political criticism....

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. There is no reason for dealing here with the other cosmographies of the same period. covery of America, the other part with an account of the discovery of the East Indies.2 The father and two sons who published this voluminous collection were engravers by trade, and resorted to the history of discovery and exploration in five continents as a means of utilizing and displaying their undoubted skill in the art of illustration. 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...
