英语词汇carolina rice的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Carolina rice. Some sources say that the first rice successfully grown in South Carolina was introduced into Charleston in 1694 by a Dutch brig out of Madagascar, while others hold that Yankee shipmaster Captain John Thurber presented a packet of Madagascar rice to one of the early settlers on pulling into Charleston harbor late in the 1680s. According to the latter sto- ry, the settler planted the rice rather than dining on it, and after it sprouted, he gave seed to his friends, who in turn raised rice on their fertile land. Charleston and the Carolina low country soon became the “Rice Coast,” rice fortunes building Charles- ton and marking the beginning of a plantocracy considered by many to be the New World aristocracy. The Madagascar rice raised there was being called Carolina rice or golden rice by 1787.
