Book Le monde en 11 voyages extraordinaires

35.00 CHF - available 9

Let's imagine a world without maps, without representations of elsewhere and the distant. Difficult, in our time. And yet: this is how humans have lived for most of their history. Were they then able to imagine that the earth was much larger than their horizon?

That there were other hills behind their hills, other mountains, other plains and other seas?


To find out, they had to leave. By donkey or camel, by boat or on foot, men and women set out for the unknown. And returned with extraordinary stories. Monks, botanists, traders, explorers and artists have contributed greatly to our knowledge of the planet and our awareness of the existence of other cultures. From different places and times, these travelers are the characters of this book rich in maps and adventure.
