Hardcover. Condition: New. 450 pages : 24 cm. Ibn Jubayr's account of his journey from his home in then Islamic Spain to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, Syria, the Crusader Kingdoms and ultimately Egypt is a landmark text for the study and understanding of the Medieval Islamic World. Broadhurst's translation gives voice to Ibn Jubayr's vivid impressions of the 12th century Mediterranean. He recounts his experiences in Saladin's Egypt in contrast to rule of the Almohads in the Maghreb, and gives a positive assessment of the conditions of Muslims in the Kingdom of Jerusalem. He also takes detailed note of and interest in the great architecture of period, both Muslim and non Muslim, as well as his experiences with the learned Sufi teachers of the East. With a new introduction by Robert Irwin, this classic first-hand account remains of upmost value to historians of the Medieval Mediterranean and Islamic World.

RARE English translation of a fascinating medieval travel account of the pilgrimage to Mecca by Ibn Jubayr (1145-1217), a geographer, traveler and poet from al-Andalus, in which he described Saladin`s domains in Egypt and the Levant which he passed through on his way to Mecca. The journey took place in the years preceding the Third Crusade - from 1183 to 1185, and on a return journey Ibn Jubayr passed through Christian Sicily, which had only been recaptured from the Muslims a century before, making several observations on the hybrid polyglot culture which flourished there. This chronicle served as a foundation of the genre of "Rihla", a creative travelogue based upon the experiences of Islamic travelers which brings together personal narrative, description of the areas traveled and personal anecdotes. The translator also supplied notes. Also included are glossary and index of persons. 240x165mm. 430 pages. Yellow cloth Hardcover. Gilt lettering on spine. Cover and spine dirty/slightly stained.
