| Summary | "De Noordwestelijke Doorvaart" by Roald Amundsen is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative explores Amundsen's polar expedition aboard the ship Gjöa from 1903 to 1906, focusing on the challenges and triumphs of navigating the Northwest Passage. The text reflects Amundsen's deep-seated ambition to conquer uncharted waters, alongside his crew, who each bring their unique expertise to the journey. At the start of the expedition, the atmosphere is charged with excitement and anticipation as the crew prepares to depart from Christiania. The opening paints vivid scenes of their departure, recounting the crew's individual backgrounds, including their roles on the ship and their aspirations for the expedition. Amundsen expresses his determination to fulfill a childhood dream of navigating the Northwest Passage, while detailing the process of preparing the Gjöa for a lengthy stay in the Arctic. The excitement of their first encounters with the icy landscape is palpable as they begin their journey into the unknown, driven by curiosity and the spirit of adventure.
