"En 1890, Jules Verne prétendait n'être "pas doué pour les personnages féminins". L'écrivain a pourtant imaginé une galerie de portraits étonnants et variés : jeunes filles romantiques et amoureuses, patriotes héroïques, aventurières entreprenantes, épouses dominatrices, mères dévouées, espionnes rusées et impitoyables, femmes-fantômes fantasmatiques. Ces héroïnes saisissent la chance des temps nouveaux qui s'ouvrent alors pour les femmes, échappant à la société rigide, hiérarchisée et hypocrite souvent décrite dans la littérature du XIXe siècle. Audacieuses et décidées, elles manifestent une étonnante soif d'apprendre. Plusieurs dizaines de femmes courageuses, intelligentes, intuitives et désintéressées, bousculant la mentalité bourgeoise dominante, partent ainsi à l'aventure aux quatre coins du globe. Elles ont un vrai rôle, un engagement physique, amoureux, social, éthique ou politique. Constituant un stimulant pour l'homme, elles opposent à la raison et au devoir la force des sentiments et des émotions : sans elles, sans leurs personnalités riches et nuancées, le cycle des Voyages extraordinaires aurait manqué de cette dimension émotionnelle qui humanise l'aspect mécanique et l'esprit de conquête géographique et scientifique des voyages au masculin. Au fil de leurs aventures et des gravures qui les accompagnent, ces voyageuses extraordinaires, modernes et attachantes, nous emmènent à la rencontre d'un Jules Verne largement méconnu, en résonnance avec nos préoccupations contemporaines concernant l'égalité entre hommes et femmes."--Page 4 of cover.

In a sequence of publications in the 1760s, James Macpherson, a Scottish schoolteacher in the central Highlands, created fantastic epics of ancient heroes and presented them as genuine translations of the poetry of Ossian, a fictionalized Caledonian bard of the third century. In Ossianic Unconformities Eric Gidal introduces the idiosyncratic publications of a group of nineteenth-century Scottish eccentrics who used statistics, cartography, and geomorphology to map and thereby vindicate Macpherson's controversial eighteenth-century renderings of Gaelic oral traditions. Although these writers primarily sought to establish the authenticity of Macpherson's "translations," they came to record, through promotion, evasion, and confrontation, the massive changes being wrought upon Scottish and Irish lands by British industrialization. Their obsessive and elaborate attempts to fix both the poetry and the land into a stable set of coordinates developed what we can now perceive as a nascent ecological perspective on literature in a changing world. Gidal examines the details of these imaginary geographies in conjunction with the social and spatial histories of Belfast and the River Lagan valley, Glasgow and the Firth of Clyde, and the Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland, regions that form both the sixth-century kingdom of Dál Riata and the fabled terrain of the Ossianic poems. Combining environmental and industrial histories with the reception of the poems of Ossian, Ossianic Unconformities unites literary history and book studies with geography, cartography, and geology to present and consider imaginative responses to environmental catastrophe.

Placé sous la généreuse égide de l'étude conçue en 1889 par Amélie Chevalier (1851-1934), reproduite ici dans son intégralité, ce choix d'oeuvres témoigne de ce que l'aventure et son récit ne constituent pas un apanage masculin. L'on verra se succéder ici les figures intrépides de femmes oubliées, entraînées dans le double galop splendide de l'arpentement des mondes et de l'écriture appliquée à s'en faire le turbulent écho. Dans ce premier volume sont réunis les récits publiés par Amélie Chevalier : Les Voyageuses au XIXème siècle et Les Voyageuses d'aujourd'hui. Les voyageuses : Lady Hester Stanhope, Christine Trivulce de Belgiojoso, Frédérika Bremer, madame de Bourboulon, Alexina Tinné, Lady Brassey, madame d'Ujfalvy-Bourdon, Ida Pfeiffer, Léonie d'Aunet, Mme Serena...
