ADVENTURERS IN HONG KONG

Morgan's cavalry in the American Civil War, or that of Heros von Borcke, a Prussian, who fought with Jeb Stuart in the same conflict. Sir Rutherford Alcock served in Spain as a volunteer during the Carlist wars.

55 See, for example, E. J. Hobsbawm, Bandits, Harmondsworth, 1972. 56 See Blaise Cendrars, Rhum, for an account of the extraordinary Jean Galmot and L'Or, Blaise Cendrars's account of the life of General Johann August Suter, the 'owner' of California.

57 Protos in André Gide's Les Caves du Vatican says: 'Savez-vous ce qu'il faut pour faire de l'honnête homme un gredin? Il suffit d'un dépaysement, d'un oubli'. The idea of 'dépaysement' (i.e., to remove someone from his usual surroundings) is a key concept for the understanding of the adventurer.

58 Laurence Hope, The Garden of Karma, London, 1902, p. 144. 59 Oliver Bernard, ed., Rimbaud, Harmondsworth, 1962, pp. 304-5.

60 A final footnote on this article should be Malraux's comment that: 'L'aventurier est un personnage du XIXe siècle, qui déborde sur le XVIIIe aux Indes, et un peu sur le XX.' See André Malraux, Antimémoires, p. 378.
