Formerly in the collection of famed bibliophile Henri Burton of Geneva his morocco bookplate neatly to front endpaper. <br/><br/>French sammelband of the Travels of Sir Jean Chardin; one of the finest works of early Western scholarship on Persia and India and Spons History of Geneva from the collection of Henri Burton. A great deal of European travel writing details the history of Europes relationship to the Orient a place highly exoticized by western observers. Jean Chardin was a trader and the son of a jeweler who first went to the Levant in 1665 to purchase gems. He made a second journey in 1671 in the company of the artist Guillaume Grelot whom he met in Istanbul and whose drawings inspired the engravings in the present work. This edition comprises the first volume of the authors manuscript dealing with the period 1671-1673 and is all that was published until 1711. His work is divided into four parts: the first recounts his journey from Paris to Ispahan 1671-77 the second describes Persia and Ispahan the third the ruins of Persepolis and the fourth gives a history of Persia based on Persian writers. /// Spon 1647-1685 was a doctor and pioneering archaeologist of Greek antiquities. After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes he fled France for Switzerland dying not long after in Geneva. His history of Geneva first published in 1680 was translated into English in 1687. Chardin an experienced trader is in a position to give detailed accounts of trade-routes prices articles bought and sold customs problems and so on whereas Spon is primarily interested in Antiquity concentrating on giving the exact wording of inscriptions illustrations of medals and ancient buildings and the comparison of towns and landscapes with the descriptions which appear in Classical texts. A fine sammelband neat and sturdy contained two important travel texts printed within just one year of each other. chez Jean Wolters et Ysbrand Haring / Frans Halma hardcover books
