Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - First published in Amsterdam in 1676 and long obscured by mistranslation and abridgment, The Voyages of John Struys stands among the most remarkable eyewitness travel narratives of the early modern world. Spanning three continents and decades of peril, captivity, warfare, and survival, Struys's account offers an unvarnished view of life across the Mediterranean, the Middle East, Persia, Central Asia, and beyond, at a moment when empires collided and global trade reshaped human experience. This edition presents a newly prepared, faithful English translation made directly from the original Dutch, restoring passages long omitted or distorted in earlier versions. Great care has been taken to preserve Struys's voice-plain, observant, and often unflinching-while rendering his language into clear, readable modern English. The result is a text that retains its seventeenth-century character without obscurity or ornament. Struys writes not as a court chronicler or philosopher, but as a working man caught in the machinery of empire: shipwright, sailor, captive, traveler, and survivor. His narrative records naval warfare in the Mediterranean, enslavement and escape, long caravan journeys across Persia, encounters with Safavid courts and Armenian communities, passage through the Caucasus and the Volga basin, and observations of peoples, customs, religions, and landscapes rarely described with such immediacy. The famous engraved plates-reproduced here in context-serve not as decoration but as visual testimony, anchoring the narrative in the material world Struys witnessed. This edition also provides a scholarly introduction and critical apparatus situating the work within early modern travel literature, explaining its publication history, authorship, and the role of illustration in seventeenth-century knowledge-making. Modern place names are supplied sparingly for clarity, without imposing anachronistic geography on the text. The Voyages of John Struys is neither romantic fiction nor moral allegory, but a rare documentary record of travel, danger, endurance, and encounter at the crossroads of early modern history. Read today, it reveals how the world appeared to those who crossed it under sail and by caravan, at great personal risk-before borders hardened, before empires stabilized, and when the world still held uncertainty and wonder beyond each new horizon. …
