It is widely believed that people living in the Middle Ages seldom
traveled. But, as Medieval Travel and Travelers reveals, many
medieval people - and not only Marco Polo - were on the move for a
variety of different reasons. Assuming no previous knowledge of
medieval civilizations, this volume allows readers to experience
the excitement of men and women who ventured into new lands. By
addressing cross-cultural interaction, religion, and travel
literature, the collection sheds light on how travel shaped the way
we perceive the world, while also connecting history to the
contemporary era of globalization. Including a mix of complete
sources, excerpts, and images, Medieval Travel and Travelers
provides readers with opportunities for further reflection on what
medieval people expected to find in foreign locales, while sparking
curiosity about undiscovered spaces and cultures.
