摘要

贡尼维尔的土地第一次被提及是在1664年让·保米尔神父的《梅莫伊雷斯》中,该书请求教皇批准一项基督教使命,前往尚未被发现的澳大利亚领土。Paulmier论点的核心是一份文件的摘录,该文件声称是16世纪航海家Gonneville的旅行记录。摘录详细描述了在航海家的L‘Espoir号船迷失方向并降落在传说中的好望角东南部的南方大地后,这片未知的土地是如何被发现的。他对未知土地的乌托邦式描述在17世纪末和18世纪的法国探险中发挥了重要作用。在库克驳斥了大南部土地的存在之后,冈尼维尔的土地在19世纪被认定为在巴西。然而,最近的学术研究表明,Gonneville和他的故事可能是由Paulmier发明的。本文探讨了冈尼维尔故事是如何以及为什么成为法国探险史的一部分,然后详细介绍了导致其名誉扫地的因素。

Jean Paulmier, Gonneville and Utopia: The Making and Unmaking of a Myth
The first mention of Gonneville’s land occurs in Abbé Jean Paulmier’s Mémoires of 1664 petitioning the Pope to approve a Christian mission to the as yet undiscovered Terres australes. Central to Paulmier’s argument was the extract from a document purporting to be the travel account of a sixteenth-century navigator, Gonneville. The extract details how the unknown land was discovered after the navigator’s ship L’Espoir had lost its way and landed in the fabled Terres australes, south-east of the Cape of Good Hope. His utopian account of the unknown land played an important role in French voyages of discovery during the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. After Cook’s refutation of the existence of a Great South Land, Gonneville’s land was identified in the nineteenth century as being in Brazil. Recent scholarship, however, has revealed that Gonneville and his story were probably invented by Paulmier. This article examines how and why the Gonneville story became part of the history of French exploration, then details the elements which led to its being discredited.
