Excerpt from Das Reisebuch der Familie Rieter
Umfangreicher ist der bericht des Sebald senior über seine reise nach Santiago und Jerusalem, wenn auch immer noch ge drüngter, als wir einem reisenden zutrauen müssen, welcher so weite strecken durchmessen hat. Die route von Venedig nach Jade bietet nichts neues, dagegen sind die angaben über die gefangen schaft und befreiung der pilger, die erlosung eines geführten für eine neue pilgerfahrt, über die kosten der reise recht interessant; am wichtigsten ist die hier gegebene beschreibung der heiligen orte, da sich über die entwicklung der tradition daraus mancherlei neue aufschlüsse gewinnen lassen. Tücher hat einzelnes daraus seiner eigenen beschreibung eingefügt.
