| Summary | "Avonturen van drie Russen en drie Engelschen, Gevolgd door 'De Blokkadebrekers'" by Jules Verne is an adventurous novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The narrative follows an expedition led by astronomer William Emery and his companion Mokum, a skilled Bushman guide, as they await the arrival of a scientific commission by the Oranje River in southern Africa. The book explores themes of exploration and discovery against the backdrop of the diverse and challenging landscapes of Africa. The opening of the novel sets the scene along the banks of the Oranjerivier, where Emery and Mokum are stationed, waiting for their fellow expedition members from England. As they converse, their personalities emerge: Emery is composed and scientific-minded, while Mokum is restless and eager to hunt. This introduction highlights their differing perspectives and expectations for the journey ahead. The narrative builds anticipation for the arrival of the English expedition team and the purpose of their mission, which is to conduct a meridian measurement in the region. Verne vividly describes the natural beauty surrounding them and establishes a sense of both camaraderie and tension as they prepare for the challenges that await.
