Jane Franklin to John Franklin

8-9 May 1848

From "May We Be Spared to Meet on Earth: Letters of the Lost Franklin Arctic Expedition"

[luff-gore]

Just found out about "Mithina": a six-year-old Lowreenne girl, who the Franklins had taken from Wybalenna (the colonial internment camp built after the forced resettlement of the Indigenous peoples of lutruwita [Tasmania] on Flinders Island in 1834-1847) in an attempt to "civilise" her and promptly abandoned when they returned to England. She died in the new internment camp on Oyster Cove. She was only seventeen years old.

Neutrality of science be damned, killing the Franklins with a hammer as we speak. (Alternatively, do something productive with that righteous anger and donate to the Aboriginal Land Council of Tasmania to help them preserve Wybalenna as sacred, cultural and historical site. They do crowdfunding on Chuffed.)

or the Traumschiff Surprise x The Terror mashup I felt like we all needed in these tiring times

translation under the cut

Francis: did your bring your passport?

James: of course

Francis: closed the windows?

James: yes, I even closed the blinds!

Francis: oh for the love of god, stop closing the blinds all the time, that way everyone immediately knows we're not home!

*

Francis: he isn’t even a pureblooded Vulcanette

James: am too!

Francis: nooo you’re a mongrel dog!

James: gasping

*

Francis: there is something, that you still need to know

James: what is it?

Francis: I’m… an absolute loser in bed

James: Francis! Me too!

*

Off screen: oh! Someone laid down on the floor!

Francis: yes. That is John

*

Francis: Ow! Schrotty are you insane!

James: mutiny! 

Francis: Do that one more time and you’ll be sleeping in a single bedroom in Honolulu!

James: absolutely, ey

*

James: Pulle (Bones) was right. I’m simply too fat!

*

Hickey: Captain?

James: careful, don’t get too close

Hickey: the measuring of the automatic control system shows a certain smooth factor. They’re using strong vibrating modulations to push through to us. 

Francis: and�� so?

Hickey: should I let them penetrate, Captain?!

James: gasping

*

Francis: And what are you supposed to be? 

James: I’m the Captain 

Francis: pft, you just fucked your way to the top

James: so? What’sthe issue with that?

 Sir John: Pugspeed!

Silence

Sir John: Pugspeed!

Gore: Captain, begging your pardon, but pug speed is currently kinda dumb

Sir John: why

Gore: we’ve got weasel damage

Sir John: very well, time to go home!

Jopson’s line: it’s ok daddy, you can count on me!

*

Lady Jane: there they are!

Barrow: I can’t believe it, how can someone get so far off course?

Lady Jane: contact them at once!

James Ross: they’re at the arse end of the world?

John Ross: does that surprise you?

*

Francis: do you even know who I am? My name is Francis Rawdon Moira Crozier, Captain of the Terror, and i carry both the responsibility for that sofa, as well as for my crew of over 40 men! And I’m telling you, it’s not easy to feed that many mouths

POLAR EXPLORERS SHOWDOWN: BONUS ROUND

[crancisfrozier]

More Franklin Expedition adventures today!! After I saw Sir John’s bust at Westminster, I saw the old admiralty building, Lady Jane’s old apartments (or “The Battery” as it was infamously known to the admiralty), and Sir John’s statue at Waterloo Place! Sadly the gate was locked so I couldn’t get any pictures of the back of the statue :( but funny enough there is construction going by on a street next to the old admiralty building and is directing all pedestrian traffic through Spring Gardens and right passed The Battery! I wasn’t planning on it, but I had to take a photo since it was right there!

Lecture : Du bon usage des étoiles - Dominique Fortier

Résumé:

En mai 1845, les navires Terror et Erebus, sous le commandement de Sir John Franklin , un explorateur britannique, quittent l'Angleterre pour découvrir le fameux passage du Nord-Ouest. Francis Crozier est le commandant du Terror, l'adjoint de Franklin. C'est lui le personnage central de ce roman, personnage romanesque peu connu, il est tout le contraire de Franklin. Il est un des rares hommes de l'équipage à s'intéresser à l'autre aux esquimaux, considéré comme des sauvages. Commence alors un nouveau voyage, immobile celui-là, au cœur de la nuit polaire et vers les profondeurs de l'être, dont Francis Crozier, commandant du Terror, rend compte dans son journal. Il se languit aussi de la belle Sophia restée avec sa tante Lady Jane Francklin à Londres, où les thés et les bals se succèdent en un tourbillon de mondanités. Inspiré de la dernière expédition de Franklin, Du bon usage des étoiles offre un tableau foisonnant des lubies de la société victorienne- lesquelles ne sont pas sans rappeler certains des travers de la nôtre - dans un patchwork qui mêle avec bonheur le roman au journal, l'histoire, la poésie, le théâtre, le récit d'aventure, le traité scientifique et la recette d'un plum-pudding réussi.

Mon avis :

Dans l'ensemble, il s'agit d'une lecture rapide et agréable qui permet de retrouver des noms bien connus (Crozier, Franklin, Fitzjames, Little, Gore, Hornby, Goodsir …). J'ai eu l'impression de revoir des vieux amis après des années sans nouvelles.

On suit en parallèle la vie de Crozier et sir John et celle de Sophia et lady Jane. Cependant, l'absence d'intrigue supplémentaire rend le récit assez plat. Surtout en ayant déjà connaissance des évènements, j'avais parfois l'impression de lire un résumé romancé de l'expédition plutôt qu'une oeuvre originale.

Point positif, les personnages féminins sont ENFIN bien écrits et doués d'une véritable personnalité. J'ai pris plaisir à lire les passages sur Sophia qui m'est apparue comme une personne bien plus agréable que celle qui était dépeinte par Simmons. Lady Jane n'est pas en reste et brille par sa ténacité. Ce pan de l'histoire négligé dans Terreur est pour moi l'aspect le plus plaisant du récit. Ah, et l'humour aussi (voir extrait ci-dessous).

De nombreux évènements sont sous-entendus, il y a des allusions aux objets découverts plus tard (un gant laissé à sécher, par exemple) : autant de clin d'oeils aux lecteurs avertis. Il me semble que cet ouvrage s'apprécie davantage si l'on a déjà des connaissances de base sur l'expédition de 1845.

En bref, c'est une lecture complémentaire qui égaiera votre dimanche après-midi.

[venicepearl]

Jane, Lady Franklin (née Griffin; 4 December 1791 – 18 July 1875) was a British explorer, seasoned traveler and the second wife of the English explorer Sir John Franklin. During her husband's period as Lieutenant-Governor of Van Diemen's Land, she became known for her philanthropic work and her travels throughout south-eastern Australia. After John Franklin's disappearance in search of the Northwest Passage, she sponsored or otherwise supported several expeditions to determine his fate.
