...The story “Rebels from the Bounty” was written in 1879. In his work, J. Verne limits himself to a presentation of events, without going into their analysis. The story of the “Bounty” became quite popular in the twentieth century thanks to the movie, travel essays and literary works, for example the novel “The Island” by R. Merle. A reader familiar with them will notice that Verne somewhat ennobled the image of Captain Bligh, whose cruelty towards his subordinates, unusual even against the general background of the harsh order that then reigned in the English navy, was the cause of the conflict on the ship. In essence, it would be more correct to call the story a factual historical report.
