Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Embark on a captivating journey through the vibrant tapestry of 16th-century Africa with this meticulously crafted historical account. Drawn from the firsthand experiences and scholarly insights of a Moorish traveler and geographer, this book unveils the continent's diverse landscapes, peoples, and cultures during a pivotal era. Set against the backdrop of the waning Moorish presence in Spain and the escalating European exploration of Africa's coasts, this work provides a unique perspective on the intricate political, social, and economic dynamics shaping the continent. The author's keen observations and meticulous documentation offer invaluable insights into the region's historical geography, urban centers, trade routes, and the daily lives of its inhabitants. Delve into vivid descriptions of bustling cities like Fez and Cairo, traverse the treacherous expanse of the Sahara Desert, and encounter the rich traditions of the Berber tribes. Explore the intellectual vibrancy of renowned centers of learning, where scholars from across the Islamic world converged to exchange knowledge and ideas. This book's enduring value lies in its ability to transport readers to a bygone era, illuminating the complexities of a continent undergoing profound transformations.

238, [2] S. mit einigen historischen Abbildungen, als Frontispiz das Titelbild der ersten deutschen Ausgabe von 1805. Original-Leinenband mit Farbkopfschnitt u. Lesebändchen. Schnitt gebräunt u. nur minimal angestaubt, ansonsten sauber. (Klassische Reisen) - Veröffentlicht in Zusammenarbeit mit der Asien-Afrika-Abteilung der Deutschen Staatsbibliothek Berlin. Afrika im 16. Jahrhundert - nur weniges ist zu diesem Zeitpunkt über den legendären Erdteil bekannt. Doch das Zeitalter der großen Entdeckungen spart auch diesen Kontinent nicht aus. Ende des 15. Jahrhunderts wird in Granada El-Hassan Ibn Mohammed el-Wassan es Sajjati geboren. Als junger Mann kommt er in die diplomatischen Dienste des Herrschers von Marokko und in dieser Eigenschaft führen ihn weite Reisen durch Nordafrika, quer durch die Sahara, in die berühmte Handelsstadt Timbuktu und bis nach Ägypten. Fasziniert von dieser unbekannten Welt prägen sich bei El-Hassan das Geschehene und Beobachte fest ein - Landschaften, Städte und Dörfer, Fauna und Flora, die Menschen und ihre Leben. 1518 gerät der Reisende in Gefangenschaft und wird als Sklave nach Rom gebracht. Am päpstlichen Hof wird man auf ihn aufmerksam und erkennt das unschätzbare Wissen des jungen Mannes. Papst Leo X. erteilt ihm den Auftrag, die Beschreibung seiner Reisen, die »Beschreibung Afrikas«, zu verfassen. 1550 erscheint das Buch in italienischer Sprache, der Name des Autors lautet von nun an LEO AFRICANUS. Wohl hatten bereits Jahrhunderte früher berühmte Geschichtsschreiber und Geographen, wie Herodot, Ptolemäus und Edrisi, Nachrichten aus dem geheimnisvollen Land übermittelt. Doch noch war Afrika weirgehend unerkannt und unerforscht. Leo Africanus Reisebeschreibung stellte bis ins 18. Jahrhundert hinein die wichtigste Wissensquelle über diesen Erdteil dar. Erst 1805 erschien die erste und bisher einzige deutsche Übersetzung des Buches. Die hier vorliegende Fassung wurde sprachlich umfangreich bearbeitet, ohne jedoch den Stil des alten Textes zu verleugnen.
