The Travels of Sir John Mandeville
ISBN: 9781495298516 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. By the standards of the 14th century, the writing style of the man who called himself Sir John Mandeville is so informal as to be nearly chummy: "He who wants to pass over the sea to Jerusalem, may go by many ways, both by sea and by land depending on the countries he comes from; many ways come to a single end. But do not think I shall tell of all the towns and cities and castles that men shall go by, for then I must make too long a tale of it." Historians remain skeptical as to whether the author really did journey to the Holy Land and Egypt, or hire himself out as a soldier to the Great...

The Book of Marvels and Travels
ISBN: 9780199600601 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In his Book of Marvels and Travels, Sir John Mandeville describes a journey from Europe to Jerusalem and on into Asia, and the many wonderful and monstrous peoples and practices in the East. Written in the fourteenth century, the Book is a captivating blend of fact and fantasy, an extraordinary travel narrative that offers some revealing and unexpected attitudes towards other races and religions. It was immensely popular, and numbered among its readers Chaucer, Columbus, and Thomas More. Here Mandeville tells us about the Sultan in Cairo, the Great Khan in China, and the mythical Christian...

The travels of sir John Mandeville (Classic Edition)
ISBN: 9781544194516 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Jehan de Mandeville," translated as "Sir John Mandeville," is the name claimed by the compiler of a singular book of supposed travels, written in Anglo-Norman French, and published between 1357 and 1371. By aid of translations into many other languages it acquired extraordinary popularity. Despite the extremely unreliable and often fantastical nature of the travels it describes, it was used as a work of reference - Christopher Columbus, for example, was heavily influenced by both this work and Marco Polo's earlier Il Milione

The Travels of Sir John Mandeville
ISBN: 9780141441436 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ostensibly written by an English knight, the Travels purport to relate his experiences in the Holy Land, Egypt, India and China. Mandeville claims to have served in the Great Khan's army, and to have travelled in 'the lands beyond' - countries populated by dog-headed men, cannibals, Amazons and Pygmies. Although Marco Polo's slightly earlier narrative ultimately proved more factually accurate, Mandeville's was widely known, used by Columbus, Leonardo da Vinci and Martin Frobisher, and inspiring writers as diverse as Swift, Defoe and Coleridge. This intriguing blend of fact, exaggeration and...
