متن يادداشت

This dissertation examines how aspects of Safavid Persia are portrayed in the work of Adam Olearius, the German Baroque scholar who accompanied an economic expedition sent by the small northern German duchy of Holstein-Gottorf to Persia from 1635-39. Olearius's early modern travel account, the Vermehrte Newe Beschreibung der Muscowitischen und Persischen Rejse (1656), is a scholarly protoethnography, containing information on geography, biology, linguistics, history and natural history. His work both betrays stereotypical, orientalist views of Persia, and seeks to repudiate European prejudices concerning the Orient. This analysis investigates the visual and discursive nexus in his depiction of the other, namely how word and image interact in his representation of the land and its customs. In particular, the author examines Olearius's travel account and translation of Persian poetry, and confront them with his engravings, frontispieces and maps.
