Translation of “Voyages aux Indes Orientales et à la Chine”. In 1774, Pierre Sonnerat was appointed deputy commissioner of the Navy. He resumes the sea, being charged by the king, to continue research in distant lands and assemble a rich collection of plants and animals, travelling through India, Malaysia and China. He is disappointed by his stay in China where he does not find favorable conditions for exploration both on the ground and in his contacts with the Chinese. On the other hand, he falls in love with Indian culture. At the end of his trip, he moved to Pondicherry to assume his duties as Deputy Commissioner. |
