Engraved vignette on title 14 engraved plates of which 8 are folding FINE MOTTLED ENGLISH CALF VERY FINE COPY THE MOST FAMOUS OF PALESTINE TRAVELOGUES. Henry Maundrell was the Levant Company's chaplain of Aleppo from 1696 to 1701. This work contains the first description of Balbec by an Englishman. Blackmer 1095. Cox i p.119. Tobler 116d17. Travelogues written by Europeans visiting Palestine after that period point to a shift in Europe's relationship to the region. Where medieval pilgrims had often wept or gone into trances upon their arrival in Jerusalem modern European visitors observed with curiosity what was before their eyes. They were traveling for pleasure and for cultural experiences; tourism was gradually replacing pilgrimage as a motive for visiting Palestine. By the end of the seventeenth century quite a few European tourists had already been to Jerusalem. The most famous among them was Henry Maundrell the author of the book A Journey from Aleppo to Jerusalem in 1697. The book would prove to be one of the most popular books about the East for centuries to come. By 1749 seven editions in different European languages had appeared and sections of the book continued to appear in collections of travel writings published both in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries.2 The lure of printed books in Europe and its American colonies might partially account for the initial popularity of A Journey but it can not explain why the book remained popular for the more than two centuries after its original appearance. The latter could be explained by the fact that the book is the narrative of a tourist rather than that of a pilgrim unlike the many other Palestine travel narratives that appeared before it. ; English Language; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; Jewish Studies Bible Biblica Travel Israel PalestineKabbalah Judaica Jewish Studies Hebrew Talmud Rashi .

Cloth lightly worn on the edges. A small bit of brown staining to the bottom corner edges of some of the pages. Old pencil inscription by the previous owner on the yellow right front flyleaf. Scarce and obscure publication. Not listed in the Georgia Derenne catalog. <br /> <br /> Sabin 80104. From the New Georgia Encyclopedia Jennie Knight Emory Univ.<br /> <br /> Before the Civil War 1861-65 the only Unitarian churches in Georgia were located in Augusta and Savannah. Following disagreements with the national association of Unitarians over the abolition of slavery the Augusta church closed in the 1840s while the Savannah church closed in 1859. Similarly southern Universalists often differed with their northern counterparts about abolition. There were more small active Universalist churches than Unitarian churches in Georgia before the war yet no congregations remained active afterward. A large Universalist missionary effort in the Southeast began in 1891 and attracted many new converts but after the Great Depression of the 1930s Universalist membership declined again.
