Show moreAus dem Französischen ins Teutsche übersetzt. Rare first German edition of this conflation of reports from French expeditions to Arabia during the years 1708-1713, first published in 1716. "It was with distinct literary skill that La Roque, who himself had visited Syria in 1689, prepared a construed travel report from the notes of various members of the first French expeditions to Arabia and Yemen. The 'Travels to Happy Arabia' well suited the tastes of the time. The well-founded knowledge which La Roque owed to the observations of Captain Merveille and his companions allowed him to provide the first detailed account of Arabic coffee plantations and the coffee trade of the Peninsula" (cf. Schnyder/v. Waldkirch, Wie Europa den Kaffee entdeckte, p. 207f.). - Some browning and brownstaining; tear on p. 3f. mended with Japanese paper. Translation of Voyage de l'Arabie Heureuse, attributed to Jean de Laroque. Cf. Nat. union cat., pre-1956 imprints. Does not include the treatise on coffee.

First German edition, first published from the author's posthumous papers in Paris in 1717. D'Arvieux (1635-1702) lived in the Levant for a long time, spending six years at Aleppo as French consul, and collected these important observations on the Arabic Bedouins of the area. "His observations, which departed greatly from what had been formerly reported about the Bedouins, were received with doubt, but were confirmed by later travellers such as Niebuhr" (cf. Henze I, 101). The plates show costumes and the Bedouin camp on Mt. Carmel. - Some offsetting to text; insignificant browning; slight waterstain near end. Author and bibliographical note supplied in ink at upper edge of t. p. Bound with: Reise nach dem glucklichen Arabien. Translation of: Voyage fait par ordre du roy Louis XIV dans la Palestine.
