太平洋探险:从库克船长的努力到小猎犬的探索之旅

Captain Cook is generally acknowledged as the first great European scientific explorer. His voyage of exploration to the Pacific in HM bark Endeavour, commencing in 1768, lasted almost three years, recorded thousands of miles of uncharted lands and seas – including New Zealand, the east coast of Australia and many Pacific islands – and tested all Cook's skills as a navigator, seaman and leader. His voyages were among the first to take civilian scientists, notably Sir Joseph Banks, and they revealed to European eyes the mysterious and exotic lands, peoples, flora and fauna of the Pacific, never before seen.
库克船长被公认为是第一位欧洲伟大的科学探索者。自1768年起,他就开始在Endeavour HM树皮号上进行太平洋探险,历时近三年,记录了数千英里的未知陆地和海洋-包括新西兰,澳大利亚东海岸和许多太平洋岛屿-并测试了库克的所有技能作为导航员,海员和领导者。他的航行是率先采用平民科学家的航行者之一,特别是约瑟夫·班克斯爵士,他们向欧洲展示了从未见过的神秘神秘的异国土地,人民,动植物群。
But while Cook understandably dominates the story of 18th-century Pacific exploration, the achievements of those who followed him on many voyages of science and exploration into the Pacific have been neglected and deprived of the greater attention they deserve. Correcting this imbalance, Pacific Exploration explores the European voyages that continued Cook's work not only of charting but also starting to exploit and control the Pacific. These voyages, by William Bligh, George Vancouver, Matthew Flinders, Malaspina, Lapérouse and Arthur Phillip, span a period that saw Britain becoming the world's leading maritime power, a situation well in place by the time that Charles Darwin's voyage in Fitzroy's Beagle laid the basis of even greater understanding of the development of life on earth.
但是,尽管可以理解,库克在18世纪太平洋探险的故事中占据着主导地位,但在许多科学和探险之旅中跟随他的人们所取得的成就却被忽略了,并失去了应有的重视。为了纠正这种不平衡,太平洋勘探公司探索了欧洲航行,这些航行不仅继续了库克的制图工作,而且还开始开发和控制太平洋。威廉·布莱(William Bligh),乔治·温哥华(George Vancouver),马修·弗林德斯(Matthew Flinders),马拉皮纳(Malaspina),拉普劳斯(Lapérouse)和亚瑟·菲利普(Arthur Phillip)的这段航程跨越了一段时期,见证了英国成为世界领先的海上大国,而在查尔斯·达尔文(Charles Darwin)乘费兹罗伊(Fitzroy)的比格犬(Beagle)航行时,这种情况已经形成为进一步了解地球上的生命奠定了基础。
Recounting and illustrating these achievements and legacies using fascinating text and beautiful illustrations and artworks from the period, this book explores topics of scientific discovery, engagement with indigenous peoples, the use of shipboard artists and scientists, the growing professionalism of the hydrographic service, the vessels used and the colonial, commercial and imperial contexts of the voyages.
本书使用这段时期的引人入胜的文字,精美的插图和艺术品重新叙述和说明了这些成就和遗产,探讨了科学发现,与土著人民的交往,船上艺术家和科学家的使用,水文服务业日益发展的专业化等主题航行的殖民地,商业和帝国环境。
