Description

Richard Hakluyt and Travel Writing in Early Modern Europe is a comprehensive interdisciplinary collection featuring 24 essays from leading international scholars examining Hakluyt's profound influence on early modern exploration and commerce. Best known for editing The Principal Navigations (1589; expanded 1598-1600), Hakluyt was instrumental in advancing English colonial and commercial expansion during a transformative period. This Hakluyt Society volume explores his role as a translator of major European travel texts, his advocacy for English settlement in North America, and his promotion of global trade routes including the Northeast and Northwest Passage. The essays examine how Hakluyt's work shaped English activity across exploration, commerce, and colonial enterprise, offering scholars and history enthusiasts valuable insights into the intellectual foundations of early modern European expansion and the development of travel writing as a genre.
