Pub Year 1982, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Edited by Michael E. Hoare, The Resolution Journal of Johann Reinhold Forster 1772-1775 presents the detailed journal of J. R. Forster, the principal naturalist on James Cook?s second voyage. While overshadowed for nearly two hundred years by his son George Forster?s literary and scientific accomplishments, J. R. Forster was considered by many of his contemporaries to be one of the 'universal geniuses' of the late eighteenth century. His extensive and varied body of work reflects a talent that spanned comparative anthropology, linguistics, geography, and zoology, particularly in relation to the Pacific, Africa, North America, and Europe.Despite his potential to establish himself as a pioneering figure in these fields, J. R. Forster's career was marred by disputes and controversies, leading to many of his significant works remaining as obscure manuscripts rather than achieving the recognition they warranted. After his death in 1798, his vast personal library was sold to the Royal Library of the King of Prussia, now known as the Prussian State Library, where his six-volume journal is preserved. This journal provides a unique and candid perspective on daily life and relationships during this notable voyage, which is recognised for its scientific rigor and epic nature.Furthermore, Forster's journal served as the foundation for his son George's influential travelogue, A Voyage round the World (1777), which impacted both science and literature across various translations. This collection is essential for understanding the complexities of life at sea and the intellectual landscape of the period, making it a significant resource for scholars and readers interested in the age of exploration and scientific discovery.
