Description

Discover a vital historical resource with Exotic Attractions in Persia, 1684-1688: Travels and Observations. This work by Engelbert Kaemper provides a rare look into the history and culture of seventeenth-century Iran. Originally published in Latin in 1712, this volume represents the first complete translation of the four books concerning Iran. Kaemper's journey began after he studied philosophy and medicine in Prussia. In 1684, he traveled to Persia serving as the secretary to the Swedish ambassador. His route took him through Moscow and along the Volga to the Caspian Sea, allowing him to record detailed observations of the region. For historians and students of Middle Eastern history, this translation offers access to a seminal text that was previously unavailable in its entirety. While a partial German translation existed from 1940, this Mage Publishers edition provides the full scope of Kaemper's travels and observations, making it an essential addition to any collection focused on the history of Iran.
