Reize naar Surinamen en door de binnenste gedeelten van Guiana — Compleet
O quantum terr, quantum cognoscere coeli Permissum est! pelagus quantos aperimus in usus! Nunc forsan grave reris opus: sed ltarecurret Cum ratis, & caram cum jam mihi reddet Ilcon; Quis pudor heu nostros tibi tunc audire labores! Quam referam visas tua per suspiria gentes! In den jaare 1796. kwam in twee deelen in groot quarto, te London te voorschyn eene Reisbeschryving, onder deezen tytel: Narrative, of a five years expedition, against the Revolted Negroes of Surinam, in Guiana, on the Wild Coast of South America; from the year 1772, to 1777: elucidating the History of that Country, and describing its productions, viz. Quadrupedes, Birds, Fishes, Reptiles, Trees, Shrubs, Fruits & Roots; with an account of the Indians of Guiana & Negroes of Guinea: by Captain J. G. STEDMAN. Illustraded with 80 elegant Engravings, from drawings made by the Author. De meer dan gewoone pracht en kostbaarheid, waar mede deeze Engelsche uitgaaf is volvoert, doet reeds dadelyk iets groots van dit werk verwagten: en in de daad de doorbladering van het zelve zal die verwagting geenzints te leur stellen. Eene aannschakeling van merkwaardige gebeurtenissen in eenen gemakkelyken en bevalligen styl voorgestelt, maakt de leezing van dit werk aangenaam; en het onderwerp is tevens belangryk. Meer dan n Schryver heeft wel ondernomen eene beschryving der Surinaamsche Volkplanting te leveren; maar verder dan dezelve door Europeaanen bebouwd en bewoond word, brengen zy het byna nooit. De Zand-Woestynen of Savanen zyn de grenspaalen, welke deeze Schryvers niet te buiten gaan. Maar vermits de Capitain STEDMAN, door het bywoonen van eenen tocht tegen oproerige Negers, tot in derzelver diepste schuilhoeken, door byna ontoegankelyke bosschen en moerassen, is doorgedrongen, treffen wy hier byzonderheden aan, die elders te vergeefs gezocht zouden worden, en des te meer opmerking verdienen, om dat ze overal de kenmerken dragen van zuivere waarheid, zonder opsmukking of vergrooting, waar door andere werken van dien aart veelal bedorven worden, en hunne achting verliezen. Met recht beschouwd men dit werk als het volledigst Tafereel der Volkplanting van Surinamen, eene bezitting, voor meer dan ne Europeesche Natie van het grootste aanbelang. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
