Description

This collection of ten interconnected essays explores Nicolas-Claude Peiresc's groundbreaking study of languages and literatures across the Near East and North Africa during the seventeenth century. Written over a decade yet conceived as a unified work, these essays examine how Peiresc, a classical scholar and devout Christian, approached the eastern and southern Mediterranean world as both the historical landscape of ancient Greece and Rome and the biblical region that shaped Western civilisation. The volume traces Peiresc's intellectual journey through antiquarian research, revealing how his Mediterranean heritage and scholarly interests converged to create a distinctive approach to cultural history. This Routledge collection from the Variorum Collected Studies series provides essential insights into early modern scholarship, religious thought, and the foundations of modern oriental studies, making it invaluable for historians, classicists, and those interested in the evolution of European intellectual traditions.

Key Features

The Routledge collection presents ten essays on Peiresc's research into Near Eastern and North African languages and literatures across the seventeenth century.

Essays examine Peiresc's dual perspective as both a classical scholar studying ancient Greek and Roman civilisation and a Christian thinker engaging with biblical history.

Part of Routledge's Variorum Collected Studies series, offering coherent scholarly perspective on early modern antiquarianism and cultural history.

Explores how Mediterranean geography and Peiresc's personal connection to Aix and Marseille shaped his approach to oriental and classical studies.

Provides foundational understanding of seventeenth-century approaches to language study, religious scholarship, and the origins of modern orientalism.
