Download or read book The Travels of Marco Polo Illustrated written by Marco Polo and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2024-03-02 with total page 1866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Venetian adventurer Marco Polo traveled from Europe to Asia in the late thirteenth century, as immortalised in his seminal work of travel literature. It describes Polo’s assorted travels throughout Asia and his experiences in the sumptuous court of Kublai Khan. Composed at a time when very little was known about the Far East, Polo’s account opened new vistas to the European mind, allowing Western horizons to expand. His description of Japan set a definite goal for Christopher Columbus in his journey of 1492, while Polo’s detailed discoveries of spices encouraged Western merchants to seek new sources and break trading monopolies. The wealth of geographic information recorded by Polo was widely used in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, fuelling an era of great European discoveries. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This eBook presents Marco Polo’s complete text, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Download or read book The Travels of Marco Polo written by Marco Polo and published by . This book was released on 2018-07-04 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Travels of Marco Polo is a descriptive book by a famous merchant and traveler from Venice, Marco Polo.This book saw the light in the beginning of the fourteenth century. An observant and practical Venetian shared with contemporaries his own observations of morals, state institutions and everyday life in China - the country that was almost unknown to Europe of those times, and where Marco Polo had spent 15 years serving a famous Kublai Khan. With the help of this book, a lot of Europeans learned for the first time about Eastern countries, their natural wealth and technical achievements - paper money, typing board, sago palm, compass and bill, as well as coal, location of desired spices. Written in lively and clear language, The Travels of Marco Polo became a resource book for many outstanding travelers of the Age of Discovery, including Christopher Columbus (1451-1506). Eventually, searches for the ways to buy spices avoiding the Arabic trade monopoly led to the redivision of the world and disappearing of many white spots on the map, and The Travels of Marco Polo became one of not many publications that influenced the course of history.

Download or read book Marco Polo s Book written by John Critchley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marco Polo and his book may seem to have been well served by scholars, yet the majority have been concerned to write about his travels in Asia, what he did or did not see, and how useful he is as a source on the East. John Critchley’s subject, on the other hand, is the text of Polo’s book itself and the political and ideological context - the crusades, the Mongol missions, the French presence in Italy - in which it was put together by its author(s), and read by its audience. The homogeneity of the ’original’ Franco-Italian text and the accepted relationship between this text and the Latin recensions is tested by computer analysis. An examination of vocabulary and other textual features draws out the different attitudes and contributions of Polo himself and his various editors and translators. Critchley’s book will be of interest not only to those concerned with the history of later medieval Europe but also to specialists in medieval Asia, who will find it useful to know about the background and composition of so famous and frequently cited a work. On pourrait penser que Marco Polo et son livre ont été amplement débattus par les spécialistes en la matière, cependant la majorité a surtout écrit à propos de ses voyages en Asie, ce qu’il avait ou n’avait pas vu et sur son utilité en tant que source de références sur l’Orient. Le sujet traité par John Critchley par contre, est le texte même du livre de Polo, ainsi que le contexte politique et ideologique - les croisades, les missions mongoles, la présence française en Italie - dans lequel il a été composé par son ou ses auteurs et dans lequel ses lecteurs ont pu le lire. L’homogeneïté du texte franco-italien d’origine et le rapport accepté entre celui-ci et les révisions latines ont été analysés par ordinateur. Un examen du vocabulaire et d’autres caractéristiques littéraires fait transparaître les différences d’attitudes et de contributions entre Polo
