Book The Life and Letters of Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq 2 Volume Set  Seigneur of Bousbecque  Knight  Imperial Ambassador

Download or read book The Life and Letters of Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq 2 Volume Set Seigneur of Bousbecque Knight Imperial Ambassador written by Ogier Ghislain De Busbecq and published by Cambridge Library Collection. This book was released on 2012-08-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq (1522-92) was a Flemish herbalist, diplomat and writer. In 1554, Ferdinand I, soon to be Holy Roman Emperor, dispatched him to Suleiman the Magnificent's court as an ambassador to the Ottoman empire, where Busbecq spent years negotiating a border dispute between his employer and the sultan. While there, he also discovered important manuscripts and sent the first tulip bulbs to Europe. He returned to Vienna in 1562, where he acted as counsellor to Ferdinand, after whose death he continued to serve the Habsburgs. This two-volume work, first published in 1881, contains Busbecq's letters, edited and translated into English from Latin by two Cambridge scholars. Volume 1 contains a lengthy biography of Busbecq, written by the editors, and his famous Turkish Letters, which are a unique source of information on Ottoman court life in the sixteenth century. Volume 2 contains letters written in France to the Holy Roman Emperors Maximilian II and Rudolph II, and an index and appendix to both volumes, the latter including Busbecq's itineraries and a helpful outline of Hungarian history. --Back covers

This book was released on 2017-07-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Ogier Ghiselin De Busbecq, Vol. 2 of 2: Seigneur of Bousbecque Knight, Imperial Ambassador Of France, and sent letters to Augsburg next day for me to take to her. I was speaking to someone to-day who had come but lately from the Prince of Orange, and he said that negotiations 1 for peace had been opened with him through St. Aldegonde, who was a prisoner in the hands of the Royalists. He represented the Prince as strongly inclined for peace, but said that the cities, which had called him in, were no less strongly opposed to it, and would rather suffer the worst extremity than trust themselves to the Spaniards, or send Orange away. The same person told me that Leyden was starving, and must soon surrender.2 The Prince, he said, was not to blame for it, but the inhabitants, who, having been repeatedly warned to lay in stores in time, had obstinately neglected to do so. He also informed me that the Spanish fleet, if it was really coming, was to sail round Scotland, and that Orange had set up false beacons and lights on the coast to draw it among the shoals and sandbanks. Perhaps the information I have sent your Majesty is not Of much importance, still I feel sure that it will at least do no harm, and that with your accustomed graciousness you will not take my sending it amiss. I pray God to preserve your Majesty, and remain, &c. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
