Mildenhall, John / Cartwright, John; [Purchas, Samuel (ed.)].
Oost-Indise voyagien van Johan Mildenhal, en Johan Cartwright, onder veel avontuuren en opmerkelijke waarnemingen, (in de jaren 1599 en 1606) te water en te lande, gedaan na de landen van Persien en den Grooten Mogol. Leiden, Pieter van der Aa, 1706.
8vo. (2), 54, (6) pp. With engraved title vignette, folding engr. map of Persia and northern Arabia, and 2 double-page-sized engraved plates. Papered spine. First Dutch translation of "The travailes of John Mildenhall" and "Observations of Master John Cartwright" (from "Purchas his Pilgrimes", London, 1625, vol. 1, bk. 3, pp. 114-116, and vol. 2, pp. 1422-1437). The merchant adventurer John Mildenhall, "probably the first Englishman to travel overland to India" (Howgego I, 719), spent six months in Constantinople before, in July 1600, departing for Aleppo, proceeding to Bir, Urfa, Diabekr, Sultanieh, Qazvin, and ultimately Lahore. He returned to England in 1605/06. The English preacher John Cartwright accompanied him from Aleppo to Kashan in Persia, then proceeded to Esfahan alone "and travelled widely in the Middle East. The account of his journeys is one of the most valuable of the period" (Howgego I, 197). Tiele 5. Muller (Books, maps, plates on America) 1890f. Alden 707/2. J. C. Brown cat. III, 88.

Miles, Samuel Barrett.
The Countries and Tribes of the Persian Gulf. London, Harrison and Sons, 1920.
4to. 2 vols. (12), 264 pp. (4), 265-643 pp., final blank. With frontispiece portrait and 8 photographic plates. Contemporary stamped cloth with cover and spine titles. Second printing of the equally scarce 1919 first edition of this notable work of travel literature by the British Army officer S. B. Miles, who served as a diplomat in various Arabic-speaking countries, notably Oman, which he came to know better than any other European of the time. His intent to revise the notes he had "jotted down on odd bits of paper as he rode through the desert on his camel" (Preface) was rendered impossible due to his failing eyesight. Five years after his death his widow decided to publish the manuscript as she found it, enriching it with Miles's travelogue of Mesopotamia as well as an index. The work includes the political and economic history of Oman and the Gulf as well as the history and geography of Dhofar, Arab tribes, and pearl fishing. The plates show the forts at Bahila, Yabreen, and Rostak, as well as the house of Seyyid Hamed Bin Azzar at Rostak, a group of locals, and date palms, while the frontispiece depicts Miles resting in a chair wearing his sunglasses. - Binding slightly rubbed and soiled, cockling to upper cover of vol. 2, rebacked. A good copy of this popular work that saw re-issues in 1966 and 1994. Cf. Ghani 250 (1966 reprint only).

MIRCEA ELIADE.
Dinler tarihine giris.= [Traitê d'histoire des religions]. Translated by Lale Arslan.
Fine English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 16 cm). In Turkish. 455 p. Dinler tarihine giris.= [Traitê d'histoire des religions]. Mircea Eliade'nin bu kitabinin merkezinde iki temel soru var: Din nedir ve hangi asamada bir din tarihinden söz edebiliriz? Eliade bu sorularin aydinlatilabilmesi için kutsalin belli sayida tezahürünün incelenmesi gerektigini düsünüyor. Bu yüzden de incelemesine gök, su, yer, taslar gibi kutsalin farkli kozmik düzlemlerde ortaya konulan yüzlerini irdelemekle basliyor; ardindan ayin halleri, günes, bitkiler ve tarim, cinsellik gibi kutsalin mekanla ilgili tezahürlerini, son olarak da mitleri ve simgeleri inceliyor. Yazarin her bölümde kendine özgü bir çerçeve olusturdugu ve kimi zaman da didaktik olmanin tekdüzeligini asmak üzere her bölümde kendine özgü bir üslup gelistirdigi görülüyor. Kitabin farkli basliklari arasinda gezinen okuyucu kutsalin yapisi üzerinde düsünme olanagi buluyor. Eliade'nin Dinler Tarihine Giris'i tek tek dinleri ele alin inceleyen bir kitap degil, "ilkel" ve "gelismis" din biçimlerini eszamanli olarak inceleyerek tüm dinlerdeki ortak ögeleri ortaya koyan ve insanin kutsal ile iliskisini çözümleyen bir çalisma. Bu kitap bize dinsel inançlar ve düsünceler tarihine nasil yaklasmamiz gerektigini ögretiyor.

Modeen, Mirza Itesa (Itsam al-Din, Mirza) / Alexander, James Edward (transl.).
Shigurf namah-i-velaët, or, excellent intelligence concerning Europe: being the travels of Mirza Itesa Modeen in Great Britain and France. London, James Duncan for John Taylor, 1827.
8vo. XI, (1), 233, (1) pp. With a lithogr. frontispiece in original hand colour. Contemporary auburn calf with giltstamped rules to boards; leading edges gilt; spine rebacked. All edges gilt. First edition of this account of a Middle Eastern civil servant's visit to Britain in 1765, translated from the original Persian manuscript by James Edward Alexander. Born in India, Itesa Modeen learned Persian and entered the service of the British. When Shah Alam wanted to send letters and gifts to King George III in England it was decided that these would be taken by a British army officer, accompanied by Modeen as his translator and secretary. Modeen wrote a record of his journey recording the sights he saw and the excited reactions of Londoners to the unusual sight of a high class "Hindoostanee" (as he called himself) visitor. It was not until some 60 years later that his manuscript account was translated and published. The Mirza spent about almost three years on his trip to Europe, staying mostly in London but also visiting Scotland and Oxford, before returning to his native India. - Insignificant foxing to title and final leaf. From the library of Sir Richard Strachey (1817-1908), the Indian administrator and father of Lytton Strachey (his engr. armorial bookplate to pastedown); later in the collection of Christopher Jower (bookplate to flyleaf).
