Download or read book Los viajeros medievales written by Maria Serena Mazzi and published by Antonio Machado Libros. This book was released on 2018-11-29 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En la Edad Media se viaja por motivos políticos, por trabajo, para rezar o para estudiar: por los caminos se encuentran reyes y mercaderes, peregrinos y delincuentes, clérigos y juglares, marginados y caballeros andantes. Se navega por ríos, por lagos, por canales, por mares o por el océano. Este libro nos presenta a esta variada humanidad en camino mientras atraviesa países y continentes; reconstruye sus trayectos, sus penalidades, sus miedos, sus emociones. ¿Qué significaba ponerse en camino dejando atrás el propio hogar?, ¿cuáles eran los modos concretos de viajar?, ¿qué conocimientos nacían del saber geográfico y cuáles eran solo fantasías?, ¿cuáles eran los países por entonces conocidos?, ¿qué relaciones se establecían con los extranjeros? Curiosidad, inquietud, fe, deseo de aventura, ansias de conocer, necesidades materiales o exigencias del trabajo animan sin cesar este trasiego de gentes. Ningún libro de viajes, por muy fiel que sea, podrá describir la intensidad y la dimensión que caracterizaban el ir y venir de personas normales y corrientes por los caminos medievales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging and fascinating book delves into a topic that has rarely been studied: travel in the medieval world. Presenting a cast of (usually moneyed) characters who traveled for religious or political reasons, or purely out of a desire for knowledge, adventure, or entertainment, this examination lays the stale concept of the medieval man as a static individual to rest. Este libro ameno y fascinante se enfoca sobre un tema poco estudiado: el viaje en el mundo medieval. Presentando un reparto de personajes frecuentemente adinerados que viajaban por razones religiosas o políticas, o por un deseo por conocimiento, aventura o diversión, este examen acaba con el concepto trasnochado del hombre medieval como un ser estático.

Download or read book Medieval Miscellany written by Margaret Labarge and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1997-01-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of occasional writings by renowned medieval scholar Margaret Wade Labarge considers an eclectic mix of themes and issues in the history of the Middle Ages. The varied lives of medieval women, their power and status within society, are depicted through their own writings; questions of medieval culture are linked to those facing humanity in our time; travel, as experienced by the most prestigious ambassador and by the lowliest pilgrim, is explored; and the origins and conditions of health care are examined. These themes have inspired or informed the author's eight major historical works, but are revisited here with the clarity, wit and discipline of a great teacher. A Medieval Miscellany will give readers already acquainted with Labarge's work new pleasure, and provide an enticing path into medieval lives and time for new readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las ideas que se tenían sobre el mundo y sus habitantes en la Edad Media eran muy distintas de las actuales, pero algo de ellas y de las actitudes con que los viajeros medievales se enfrentaban a lo lejano y desconocido ha llegado a nuestra cultura. En aquellos siglos se pasó de una visión simbólica y primitiva del mundo a otra que hizo posible su descubrimiento y exploración por los europeos. Este libro pretende explicar cómo ocurrió aquella revolución silenciosa, los motivos, los medios, las ideas y las fantasías de los hombres que la llevaron a cabo y precedieron a Cristóbal Colón y Vasco de Gama.

Download or read book Cervantes Architectures written by Frederick A. de Armas and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cervantes’ Architectures is the first book dedicated to architecture in Cervantes’ prose fiction. At a time when a pandemic is sweeping the world, this book reflects on the danger outside by concentrating on the role of enclosed structures as places where humans may feel safe, or as sites of beauty and harmony that provide solace. At the same time, a number of the architectures in Cervantes trigger dread and claustrophobia as they display a kind of shapelessness and a haunting aura that blends with the narrative. This volume invites readers to discover hundreds of edifices that Cervantes built with the pen. Their variety is astounding. The narrators and characters in these novels tell of castles, fortifications, inns, mills, prisons, palaces, towers, and villas which appear in their routes or in their conversations, and which welcome them, amaze them, or entrap them. Cervantes may describe actual buildings such as the Pantheon in Rome, or he may imagine structures that metamorphose before our eyes, as we come to view one architecture within another, and within another, creating an abyss of space. They deeply affect the characters as they feel enclosed, liberated, or suspended or as they look upon such structures with dread, relief, or admiration. Cervantes' Architectures sheds light on how places and spaces are perceived through words and how impossible structures find support, paradoxically, in the literary architecture of the work.
Download or read book Voyages and Travel Accounts in Historiography and Literature Volume I written by Boris Stojkovski and published by Trivent Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travelling is one of the most fascinating phenomena that has inspired writers and scholars from Antiquity to our postmodern age. The father of history, Herodotus, was also a traveller, whose Histories can easily be considered a travel account. The first volume of this book is dedicated to the period starting from Herodotus himself until the end of the Middle Ages with focus on the Balkans, the Byzantine Empire, the Islamic world, and South-Eastern Europe. Research on travellers who connected civilizations; manuscript and literary traditions; musicology; geography; flora and fauna as reflected in travel accounts, are all part of this thought-provoking collected volume dedicated to detailed aspects of voyages and travel accounts up to the end of the sixteenth century. The second volume of this book is dedicated to the period between Early Modernity and today, including modern receptions of travelling in historiography and literature. South-Eastern Europe and Serbia; the Chinese, Ottoman, and British perception of travelling; pilgrimages to the Holy land and other sacred sites; Serbian, Arabic, and English literature; legal history and travelling, and other engaging topics are all part of the second volume dedicated to aspects of voyages and travel accounts up to the contemporary era.
Download or read book El viajero de cercan as written by William Henry Hudson and published by Erasmus Ediciones. This book was released on 2012-05-23 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una selección de entrañables anécdotas ecológicas por el autor de la obra maestra de renombre mundial "La Tierra Púrpura". Un clásico internacional y uno de los escritores predilectos del muy selectivo J. L. Borges. Joseph Conrad detectó su gran calidad literaria alabando su naturalísimo estilo que “brotaba como la hierba”. Hudson pergeñó varias obras maestras de la novelística mundial como "La tierra púrpura" por las que es recordado primordialmente; pero, asimismo, escribió otras obras magníficas y de gran talla literaria como es la presente, en donde, sin el artificio novelístico ni la exigencia narrativa biográfica, manifiesta su categoría de gran escritor capaz de extraer interés y poesía de hechos en apariencia insignificantes: recuerdos nostálgicos de su juventud en la Pampa, conversaciones con simpáticas niñas –en curiosa vena Lewiscarroliana–, experiencias relativas a pájaros –su gran pasión–, y anécdotas ocurridas en remotas aldeas o parajes salvajes ingleses.
