Produktbeschreibung
A vivid doorway to a distant world, opened with curiosity and care. Albania: A Narrative Of Recent Travel by E. F. Knight invites readers to walk the Balkans through a perceptive, early-modern travel lens that still speaks to today's travellers and scholars. This historical travelogue blends keen observation with personal reflection, offering a travel narrative that doubles as a cultural history. Knight's account is both a lucid portrait of late nineteenth-century Albania and a broader meditation on landscapes, ruins, markets, and manners. For travel enthusiasts and academic researchers alike, the work functions as interdisciplinary travel writing: a window into place, people, and era, rendered in clear, accessible prose that resists antiquarian elitisms. It sits at the heart of classic travel literature and the complete travel collection, a touchstone for readers seeking depth beyond routine guidebook fare. The book's literary and historical significance endures: it illuminates Albanian culture history with nuance, contributing to Balkans travel literature in a manner that captivates colletors and curious readers. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, this edition is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, essential to any serious library of books about the balkans and the broader arc of travel writing.
