Abstract

"Mit dem Itinerarium des bis zu seinem Tod in Nürnberg tätigen Humanisten, Arzt und Geographen Hieronymus Münzer über seine Westeuropareise 1494/95 eröffnen die MGH ihre neue Reihe der Reiseberichte des Mittelalters. ... Nachdem Ludwig Pfandl 1902 eine Teiledition des Itinerariums veröffentlicht hatte, die nur die Reiseroute in Spanien wiedergab, legt Klaus Herbers nun erstmals den gesamten Text in einer kritischen Edition mit ausführlicher Einleitung und detailliertem Sachkommentar vor. Hierin zeigt sich mit welcher Vielfalt an Motiven und Interessen Münzer seine Reise unternahm und dokumentierte. Humanistische Vorlieben paarten sich mit Reliquienverehrung, Interesse an wirtschaftlichen Entwicklungen, an Büchern und Handschriften. Seine Besuche an den beiden Königshöfen in Évora/Lissabon und Madrid stellten Höhepunkte der Reise dar, bei denen Aspekte von Kosmographie, Handel und Herrschaft mit Münzers Interesse für Königshöfe, Entdeckungen und Heidenkampf eng ineinandergriffen."--Description from publisher's website.

Abstract

The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made available edited (and sometimes translated) early accounts of exploration. The first series, which ran from 1847 to 1899, consists of 100 books containing published or previously unpublished works by authors from Christopher Columbus to Sir Francis Drake, and covering voyages to the New World, to China and Japan, to Russia and to Africa and India. This volume contains the first English translation (in 1863) of a Latin manuscript written in about 1330 and published in France in 1839. Jordanus was a Dominican missionary to India, who became bishop of Columbum (probably a town on the Malabar coast). He recorded anything he thought noteworthy on his travels from the Mediterranean to India via Persia and back again, and his remarks on the climate, produce, people and customs of the countries he passed through are a good source of information.
