L'Itinerarium si segnala perché, slegandosi dal viaggio ideale narrato da altri suoi contemporanei, descrive in modo realistico e problematico (con tono ansioso e metodico) quello che era diventato il pellegrinaggio ai Luoghi Santi, dopo che, nel 1571, i Turchi avevano tolto Cipro a Venezia". Johann Ludwig Gottfried, "Excerpta ex Lodovici Godofredi archontologia cosmica";"Arabiae topographia et alia, ex Adriani Romani theatro urbium"; Wolfgang Drechsler, "Historia Arabum".<BR>Buon esemplare che presenta ossidazione interna generale, e una traccia di tarlo al margine interna, alone a talune pagg. alla fine del tomo.16 °(mm 110x55). pp. 247. Copper engraving title with a full length portrait of an Arabian holding a cartouche, floriated woodcut initials. Contemporary vellum. This important and interesting work describes the antique cities such as Baghdad, Bokhara, Damascus, Medina, Mecca, Aleppo, etc. Second edition. The opera is divided in: Gabriel Sionita, "De nonnullis orientalium urbibus, nec non indigenarum religione ac moribus, tractatus brevis"; Christophe Richer, "De moribus atque institutis turcarum, arabum, aliarumque, quae Mahumedem sequuntur, gentium; Johannis Cotovici, "Itinerario hierosolymitano et syriaco, de sacris, ritibus, moribus et institutis mahometaeorum".
