Show moreAccount of a pilgrimage to Mecca ordered by the Ottoman court to invoke divine assistance against the Christian forces in the Austro-Turkish War of 1716-18. In fact, the practical value of this pilgrimage turned out to be limited: in August that same year, Prince Eugene of Savoy defeated the Turks at Petrovaradin; in 1717 he recaptured Belgrade, defeating the Turkish forces with an overwhelmingly outnumbered army; in 1718 the Treaty of Passarowitz was signed, in which the Ottomans had to surrender large areas to Habsburg Empire, which now reached its greatest territorial expanse in history. - Translated into Portuguese and published by José Freire de Monterroyo Mascarenhas (1670-1760), the polyglot editor of numerous travel accounts and topical pamphlets. Rare; OCLC lists only two copies in America (Yale, Toronto). Final leaf loose. Anonymous. By J. F. de M. Mascarenhas. Cf. Fonseca, M.A. da. Subsidios para um diccionario de pseudonymes.

Show morePasini was one of the most highly acclaimed orientalist painters working in Paris in the second half of the Nineteenth century. In 1855 the opportunity to travel to Arabia arose. At the height of the Crimean war, in an effort to counteract Russian influence in Persia, the diplomat Prosper Bourré led an official French mission to the court of Nasser al-Din Shah in Tehran. The written account was to be prepared by Joseph-Arthur, Comte de Gobineau (1816-1882); Pasini was invited on the journey to make the visual record. The mission crossed to Alexandria from Marseilles and embarked at Suez on the East Indiaman Victoria bound for Bushire. They put in at Jeddah (where they met Kemal Pasha, Guardian of the Holy Shrines at Mecca and Medina), then Aden, and Muscat (where they had an audience with the Sultan, Syed Said), before crossing the Gulf. From Bushire they travelled north to Shiraz, Isfahan, and Tehran. Pasini remained at the Shah's court, before returning to Paris in 1856. In 1859 Pasini published this album as pictorial record of the mission. Gobineau published his written account in the same year: Trois ans en Asie, de 1855 à 1858 (Paris: 1859. 8vo).

First and only edition of this defence of Fernão de Albuquerque, a crucial source for the 1622 siege and capture of Hormuz by an Anglo-Persian force. The defeat of Rui Freire de Andrade effectively ended Portuguese power in the Arabian Gulf. This book is a most valuable source for the siege of Ormuz and operations in the Arabian Gulf in 1619-23 and contains extracts from contemporary documents relating to this campaign. - Several contemporary underlinings. Some browning; remarginings to title page, p. 3 of preliminary matter, Bb4 (defects to text); some of the loss has been supplied in blue ink (showing unattractive bleeding).
