Description
A keepsake collection of maps depicting legendary and real places for the lover of literature, history, and cartography.
This exploration of the "Mythical Elsewhere" explores a wide array of places, from the well known to the obscure, through the eyes of historians, explorers, conquerors, and writers across the ages. Lose yourself in the past as you travel to such destinations as Troy, the Mughal Empire, the Congo, the river Nile, El Dorado, and many more across the globe:
Europe: Candia, Kythira, Ogygia, Troy
Asia: Cathay, Cipangu, Colchis, the Mughal Empire, Golconda, Kafiristan, the Land of the Cimmerians, Taprobana, Tartary
Africa: Barbary Coas, Cape Bojador, Congo, Meroë, Mutapa, the Land of the Mangbetu, Prester John's Kingdom, the Kingdom of Saba', the Source of the River Nile, the Lands of Good Hope
The Americas: Araucanía, Cibola, El Dorado, the Land of the Amazons, Tierra del Fuego
Southern Lands: New Cythera, Terra Australis
the Edge of the World: the Isles of the Blessed, the Garden of the Hesperides, Lemuria, Thule
Accompanied by this unique atlas and the great explorers of antiquity and Renaissance as well as poets, scholars, and novelists of all eras, readers will embark on a poetic exploration of the world. Let such greats as Herodotus, Marco Polo, Christopher Columbus, and Heinrich Schliemann be your guide on this journey to dreamlike places that are sometimes imagined and imaginary but, to those who believe, always "perfectly real." It's a trip you will never forget.
