THE VOYAGES OF JACQUES CARTIER Main Menu While the English were concentrating on a northwest passage to Asia, the French King, Francois I commissioned Jacques Cartier (born in 1491) to find a way west to the Pacific and claim new lands for France. Cartier's expedition set sail from the port of St. Malo in [1534] with two ships. After passing Newfoundland, Cartier discovered the mouth of the St. Lawrence River in present-day Canada. On his second voyage in 1535, Cartier with the help of Indian guides explored the St. Lawrence River and passed the future sites of present-day Quebec and Montreal. He sailed back to France in 1536 after he and his crew suffered from scurvy and extreme cold. By 1541, King Francois was committed to settle in the new lands discovered by Cartier. With wars raging in Europe, the French eventually lost interest in the New World. But Frenchmen followed Cartier's route up the St. Lawrence to establish a lucrative trade network with the Indians. Cartier was followed by countrymen Samuel de Champlain and Sieur de La Salle . Champlain established the first permanent settlement at Quebec, explored the St. Lawrence, the coasts of Nova Scotia, and Maine. He discovered Lake Champlain in New York and traveled as far north as Lake Huron. La Salle wanted to establish French rule from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi Valley. He explored the Mississippi river and claimed the surrounding territory of Louisiana for France.

Mary Fuller and Henry Jenkins This essay appears in Cybersociety: Computer-Mediated Communication and Community , ed. Steven G. Jones (Thousand Oaks: Sage Publications, 1995): 57-72. It is used here with the permission of the authors. Mary Fuller: We want to start by telling you two stories. Henry Jenkins: Here's the first. Princess Toadstool is kidnapped by the savage King Koopa. Two brave brothers, Mario and Luigi, depart on a series of adventures to rescue her. Mario and Luigi, simple men of humble beginnings (in fact, Italian American plumbers), cross a vast unexplored space, encountering strange creatures, struggling against an inhospitable landscape. Finally, they confront and best the monarch and his minions in a life and death struggle. In the process, the Super Mario Brothers not only restore the princess to her people but also exert control over this strange new world and its curious resources. MF: HJ: This chapter is the result of a series of conversations we've been having over the past four years. Our conversations began with hesitant efforts by each of us to understand the other's area of specialization but have grown in frequency and intensity as we began to locate points of contact between our work. We hope that what follows will reflect the process of that exchange, opening questions for future discussion rather than providing answers for immediate consumption. MF: This work is a confessedly exploratory attempt at charting some possibilities of dialogue and communication between the disparate professional spaces we inhabit. Yet the association between computer software and the Renaissance "discovery" of America is not exactly new. A computer software firm in Boston claims in its advertisement, "Sir Francis Drake was knighted for what we do every day . . . The spirit of exploration is alive at

Early Exploration Later Exploration Portuguese Explorers Early Cartography Cartier navigated much of the coastline of Newfoundland and Labrador on his 1534 and 1535 voyages. Many English voyages to Labrador resulted from efforts to find the Northwest Passage. The English navigator, John Davis, gave his name to Davis Inlet. English And French Explorations Portugal was not the only country interested in the emerging lands of the northwest Atlantic. Both England and France were concerned to stake their claims as well, disputing the right of the Pope to divide the world between Spain and Portugal. Like the Portuguese, they were interested in establishing the geography of the region, and were especially interested to find out whether a viable westerly route to Asia actually existed. This was the primary reason for those English voyages which took place after Cabot. By contrast, the French were as interested in the potential of the fisheries, and the other resources which the region had to offer. 16th Century French Galleon.
