Print on Demand. This book offers an in-depth exploration of the maritime history of Normandy during the 16th century. It draws upon a rich collection of primary sources, including contracts, charters, and other documents, to illuminate the diverse activities of Norman mariners. The book delves into the construction and armament of ships, the organization of trading voyages, the establishment of fishing expeditions, and the pursuit of both legitimate commerce and privateering. It provides a glimpse into the lives of captains, merchants, and sailors, revealing their motivations, challenges, and successes. Through its meticulous analysis of these documents, the book reconstructs the vibrant maritime world of Normandy in this period, shedding light on the economic, social, and military dimensions of a region that played a pivotal role in European maritime history. By examining the specific details of shipbuilding, trade routes, and naval expeditions, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of the broader currents of European expansion and exploration during the early modern era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

La Normandie se trouve dans une situation géogra phique qui ne pouvait manquer de fournir à l'histoire maritime un grand nombre d'événements pleins d'in térêt. Elle possède un littoral de quatre-vingt-dix lieues marines qui procure à la population de cette province deux branches d'industrie de la plus haute importance la navigation et la pêche, en eflet, ont été les principales ressources des habitants de nos côtes, depuis les temps les plus anciens dont les auteurs ou la tradition aient gardé le souvenir. Aussi, n'est - il personne qui n'ait quelques notions sur la marine normande et sur cette époque atta chan te de leurs voyages de découvertes, de pérégrinations lointaines et semées de dangers de toute sorte, à la re cherche de quelque terre encore ignorée. Il n'est personne qui ne sache que nos compatriotes ont eu au plus haut degré les qualités du marin, l'initiative, le sang froid, l'énergie, la persévérance. Si l'ardeur des capitaines normands a été récompensée par quelques succès sur lesmers, alors qu'il s'agissait de faire voile vers de nouveaux continents, l'époque qui suivit et pendant laquelle ils n'ont plus visité de peuples inconnus, mais développé seu lement leurs relations commerciales, n'en est pas moins une des plus intéressantes pour la Normandie. Mis alors en rapport avec les parages les plus divers et les plus éloignés, le négociant de Rouen et de Dieppe enregistrait les notes nombreuses recueillies par ses facteurs sur les besoins et les produits des pays parcourus, sur les relations plus ou moins fructueuses qu'on pouvait établir avec eux, sur la direction la plus avantageuse a donner aux expéditions futures. Cette observation sera particulièrement justifiée par les contrats dont nous avons entrepris la publication} ils embrassent dans leur géné ralité l'ensemble des premières tentatives de la coloni sation francaise. I ls conduiront le lecteur tour a tour en Afrique, dans les deux Amériques et dans la mer des Indes.
