Summary "Les Robinsons basques" by Francis Jammes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book combines elements of fiction and legend, exploring the origins of the Basque people through the story of characters reminiscent of Robinson Crusoe, set against the backdrop of a rich, historical landscape. The narrative centers on two young Basque characters, Iguskia and Ithargia, who embody the themes of love, adventure, and the pursuit of an idyllic existence. The opening of the novel introduces us to Jacob Meyer, a Jewish jeweler in Bayonne, who reminisces about his connection to the legendary tale of the Basque Robinsons. He shares a story passed down through his family about Ondicola, the captain of a ship named "Eskualdunak", who arrives on the shores of the Adour with a crew that indulges in a life of luxury and debauchery. The narrative captures the beauty and simplicity of the natural world while juxtaposing it with the impending cultural decay of Ondicola's followers. Through poetic descriptions, the author sets the stage for the eventual emergence of Iguskia and Ithargia as they explore their relationship against the backdrop of both their ancient lineage and the purity of their natural surroundings.
