‎* Sir Wilfred Patrick Thesiger KBE, DSO (* 3. Juni 1910 in Addis Abeba; ? 24. August 2003 in London) war ein britischer Forscher und Autor von Reiseberichten. Sein arabischer Name war Mubarak bin London (?Der Gesegnete von London?). Er entstammte einer adligen Familie: Sein Großvater Frederic Augustus Thesiger, 2. Baron Chelmsford war Teilnehmer der Äthiopienexpedition von 1868 und später Oberbefehlshaber im Zulukrieg gewesen; sein Onkel Frederic John Napier, 3. Baron Chelmsford, war Vizekönig von Indien 1916?1921. Er wurde in Addis Abeba, im damaligen Abessinien, als Sohn des britischen Gesandten Wilfred Gilbert Thesiger geboren und genoss eine Ausbildung am Eton College, dem sich ein Studium an der University of Oxford in Geschichte anschloss. Ab 1930 boxte Thesiger in der Universitätsmannschaft und war 1933 deren Kapitän. Thesiger besuchte 1930 auf Einladung von Kaiser Haile Selassie zu dessen Krönung wieder Äthiopien. 1933 nahm er an einer Expedition der Royal Geographical Society zur Erforschung des Awash-Fluss teil. Während dieser Expedition war er der erste Europäer, der das muslimische Aussa-Sultanat des Volkes der Afar erreichte und den Abbe-See besuchte. Ab 1935 arbeitete er im britischen politischen Dienst im Sudan und war in Darfur und am oberen Nil stationiert. Er nahm dabei an mehreren Unternehmen der Sudan Defence Force (SDF) teil, in der er mit Beginn des Zweiten Weltkriegs ebenso wie Siegfried Ferdinand Nadel diente. 1941 nahm er mit der von Orde Wingate gegründeten Gideon Force an den Kämpfen im Ostafrikafeldzug gegen die italienischen Truppen im besetzten Äthiopien teil. Für die Gefangennahme der italienischen Garnison von Agibar wurde er mit dem Distinguished Service Order (DSO) ausgezeichnet. Im weiteren Verlauf diente er als Agent der Special Operations Executive in Syrien sowie unter Major David Stirling in der Long Range Desert Group in Nordafrika. Thesiger wurde dann als Verbindungsoffizier der aus griechischen Offizieren gebildeten Spezialeinheit Heilige Schar eingesetzt. Er erreichte den Dienstrang eines Majors. Nach 1945 führte er Expeditionen auf der arabischen Halbinsel in der Rub al-Chali für die Desert Locusts Research Organisation durch. Einer der ?Gründe? für diese Expeditionen war die Suche nach dem Brutgebiet der Heuschrecken, die immer wieder Afrika heimsuchten. Seine Reisen führten ihn in den Irak, nach Persien, Kurdistan, Abessinien, den Sudan, Französisch-Westafrika, Pakistan und Kenia, wo er ab 1968 hauptsächlich lebte. 1994 kehrte er nach England zurück. 1995 wurde er zum Ritter geschlagen. Thesiger ist für seine Reiseberichte bekannt. Arabian Sands (1959), in Deutschland unter dem Titel Die Brunnen der Wüste erschienen, handelt von seinen Reisen in der Wüste Rub al-Chali zwischen 1946 und 1950 und beschreibt die sich auflösende Kultur der Beduinen. The Marsh Arabs (1964) dreht sich um das traditionelle Leben der Marsch-Araber im Süden des Iraks. Thesiger fotografierte ausgiebig während seiner Reisen und spendete dem Pitt Rivers Museum Oxford seine Sammlung von 25.000 Negativen. Im Al Jahili Fort in Al Ain befindet sich eine permanente Ausstellung mit dem Titel "Wilfred Thesiger and the freedom of desert". (Quelle Wikipedia)‎

‎Color Map of Southern Arabia.‎

‎A spectacular detailed fold-out color map, measuring 11 x 11 inches (28 x 28cm), in original condition. The map is taken from "A Further Journey Across the Empty Quarter", published in June 1949 issue of the Royal Geographical Society, illustrating Thesiger's journey through western and northern Rub al Khali from November 1947 to May 1948. Wilfred Thesiger is perhaps the last, and certainly one of the greatest of the British travellers among the Arabs, his narrative is vividly written. After leaving Arabia he travelled extensively in the Karakoram and the Hindu Kush (the setting of his meeting with Eric Newby immortalised in Newby's A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush), the mountains of Kurdistan and the marshlands of Iraq. But he says that none of these places moved him as did the deserts of Arabia. He spent five years in the region travelling on camels and on foot across some ten thousand miles of a vast empty land. What he found, as in his time with the people of the Iraq marshes which he described in his book The Marsh Arabs, was a way on life on the threshold of destruction.‎

‎A New Journey in Southern Arabia.‎

‎17 pages. Plus photographic plates and an extra large fold-out colour map, measuring approximately 17 x 25 inches (43 x 64cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Wilfred Thesiger has an immense ability to describe very vividly the life and ways of the people of the desert, the Bedu, and his work shines with his clear attachment to them.

The 20th century was very fortunate in being able to have a record of some of the glory it lost as seen through the eyes and camera of this very remarkable explorer.‎

‎The Hazaras of Central Afghanistan.‎

‎10 pages. Plus a full-page sketch map and black and white photographic plates. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. In 1952 and 1953, Thesiger had travelled in the Hindu Kush and Karakoram, in Chitral, Gilgit and Hunza, then he spent six months among the marshmen of southern Iraq, and in the summer of 1954, he set on another journey to Afghanistan where he lived in semi-submerged houses and travelled about in a canoe. From there he continued his journey in the Hazarajat, the original homeland of the Hazara people with mountains rising up to 17,000 feet and little visited by Europeans at the time. In his beautifully illustrated and fascinating account, Thesiger describes the geographical features of the Hazarajat, villages, and the Hazaras - Mongols who inhabit a large area in Central Afghanistan - including their appearance, products, and customs and manners. Illustrations show Farmstea in Deh Zangi on the southern slopes of Kuh-i-Baba, Hazara mountain village with watchtower and domed roofs, wedding party in Yakwalang, women weaving "barak" cloth on looms, also included here is a full-page sketch map showing Thesiger's route through the Hazarajat.‎

‎A Further Journey Across the Empty Quarter. [plus] Two Notes from Central Arabia.‎

‎Two accounts in one issue, altogether 35 pages (27 on Thesiger's account). Plus photographic plates and a fold-out colour maps, measuring approximately 11 x 11 inches (28 x 28cm) and a fold-out sketch map, measuring approximately 13 x 7.5 inches (33 xx 19cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Thesiger has an immense ability to describe very vividly the life and ways of the people of the desert, and his writings shine with his clear attachment to them. Accompanied by a spectacular detailed fold-out color map, illustrating Thesiger's journey through western and northern Rub al Khali. This is Thesiger's first-hand account and pre-dates his book, "Arabian Sands", published in 1959 by Longmans. His account of the Arabian Sands and its people, its tribal warfare and ancient history, its daily life and landscape, is of such range and value, so supremely well written, that the book can confidently claim to be a classic of Arabian travel literature. Also included in this issue is an 8 page account by Philby, entitled "Two Notes from Central Arabia", accompanied by a fold-out sketch map of the Jabal Tuwaiq region of Arabia. Phibly provides an illuminating description of the pools of Aflaj and the Qariya ruin field, from his excursion in 1948 and his journey in 1918. Also included is a brief description of Phibly's map.‎

‎A Camel Journey Across the Rub' Al Khali - 9‎

‎34 pages. Plus photographic plates and a large fold-out colour map, measuring approximately 16 x 21 inches (40 x 53cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a fascinating expedition report on the author's explorations in Arabia, which Predate his All-Important Book - Arabia Felix; Across the Empty Quarter of Arabia, published in 1931. Accompanied by a vivid and descriptive map, this narrative is an outstanding early report into the harsh savage regions of Arabia. Thomas undertook the exploration of the magnificent Rub' Al Khali in three journeys. The first camel journey of 600 miles through the south-eastern borderlands was made in the winter of 1927-1928, the second, travelling nortwards 200 miles from the central south to the edge of the sands, were undertaken under his own initiative, a part of his plan to explore the unkown south and also as a preliminary reconnaissance for a final desert crossing. The realization of that journey is the subject of this report. In order to make the journeys, Thomas grew a beard, donned Arab clothing, and lived as one of the Badus themselves. On completion of his second journey he entered into a secret arrangement, sealed with only 20 Pounds Sterling, with a member of his party, an influential member of the Rashid tribe, to bring him in the following winter, by caravan to a point in the desert where occasionally Murra tribesmen would come from the north, and that from there he would make his way by being passed from tribe to tribe! The author's captivating story of his third and successful pioneering exploration, includes notes on the tribes, geography, and extensive appendices on the natural history collections. The writer of this book was one of the most talented of the younger political officers in Mesopotamia during and after the War, and served in a similar capacity in Trans-Jordan, before being selected to fill the responsible post of Financial Advisor and Wazir to His Highness the Sultan of Muscat and Oman. He showed courage and resource in circumstances of much difficulty and great danger during and after the war in Mesopotamia. He performed two remarkable journeys over territory hitherto completely unknown. The first was along the Southeastern Borderlands of the Rub 'al Khali from near Ras al Had to Dhufar, the second from Dhufar for a distance of some two hundred miles inland. The two journeys, taken together, constitute the most important and most extensive piece of geographical exploration undertaken in any part of the world since the War.‎

‎Relation d'un voyage fait au Levant.‎

‎Le voyageur Jean Thévenot (1633-1667) demeure connu pour ses récits de voyages en Europe, en Afrique du Nord, au Moyen-Orient et en Inde. Dans cette relation, il traite des mœurs, religions, forces, gouvernements, politiques, langues, et coutumes des habitants de l’empire ottoman mais aussi de Constantinople, la Terre-Sainte, l’Égypte, les pyramides, les déserts d'Arabie, la Mecque, et de plusieurs autres lieux de l'Asie et de l'Afrique. Thévenot fut également l'introducteur de la fève de café à Paris, en 1657, après que le marchand Jean de la Rocque, revenant de Constantinople, en eut rapporté à Marseille en 1644. Il évoque d'ailleurs le café turc dans cet ouvrage, sous le nom de cahué : « Ce breuvage est amer et noir, et sent un peu le bruslé ; on le boit tout à petits traits de peur de se brusler, de sorte qu'estant dans un cavehane (ainsi nomment les lieux où on le vend tout préparé), on entend une assez plaisante musique de humerie... » (pp. 62-63).
