The authors review the visit of Commander Charcot and the crew of his ship, the “Pourquoi Pas?”, to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1908, where he stayed for eight days, while en-route as part of the second French expedition to the Antarctic. It was a glamorous stay as Commander Charcot was treated as a true star and international celebrity, befitting his position.
Revisamos a estadia de oito dias do Comandante Jean-Baptiste Charcot e a tripulação do seu navio “Pourquoi Pas?” no Rio de Janeiro, em 1908, durante a segunda expedição francesa para a Antártica. A estadia do Comandante Charcot foi um acontecimento social e o mesmo foi recebido com honrarias dignas de uma celebridade internacional.
