商品簡介
Bracewell (History, University College London) has assembled over 100 examples of travel writing about Europe, written by east Europeans over the past 450 years. Ranging from pilgrimage diaries from the 1600s to contemporary accounts of Europe after the fall of the Iron Curtain, these writings show the broad range of lenses through which travelers from the east viewed the rest of Europe. While delightful and entertaining, these travel accounts also show how notions of "us" and "them" held by east Europeans have changed over the centuries.
