Alla fine del Quattrocento, l’Egitto e il Vicino Oriente sono a una svolta: ancora sotto il dominio mamelucco, vedono però ormai prossimo l’arrivo degli Ottomani. Le città italiane, costantemente in guerra tra loro, si muovono con cautela in questo scenario; da una parte timorose di inimicarsi il Turco, dall’altra legate agli interessi commerciali attestati tra Alessandria e Il Cairo. Tra 1489 e 1490 un prete toscano, Michele da Figline, intraprende insieme a un compagno un pellegrinaggio che lo porta da Venezia al Cairo, dal Cairo a Gerusalemme. Lungo la strada incontra un ambasciatore fiorentino, Agnolo Della Stufa, in missione diplomatica con il suo seguito presso il sultano mamelucco. I due gruppi si uniscono per proseguire attraverso il deserto fino alla Terrasanta. In un volgare toscano vivace e immediato, il diario di viaggio di Michele da Figline, sino a oggi inedito, racconta la storia di questa avventura, descrivendo le tappe dell’itinerario, le difficoltà incontrate, i costumi dei musulmani, e la geografia dei luoghi santi.

Trotz der zahlreichen Publikationen, die in den letzten Jahren der Erforschung der mittelalterlichen Seewege im Mittelmeer, des ökonomischen und kulturellen Austausches und des Phänomen der Pilgerfahrt gewidmet waren, bleibt das Thema der spezifischen Andachtsformen, die mit der Seefahrt verbunden waren und zur Herstellung von privilegierten Heiligtümern für die Seefahrer führten, noch ein Desideratum. Wie viele bis jetzt zu wenig beachtete Urkunden bestätigen, bildete sich im Spätmittelalter ein transmediterranes Netzwerk von Heiligen Orten, die insbesondere von Seefahrern besucht wurden und deren Verehrungswürdigkeit mit ihrer Lage am symbolischen Treffpunkt zwischen den Dimensionen Wasser, Erde und Himmel direkt zusammenhing. Die in diesem Band versammelten und von Spezialisten verschiedener Disziplinen aus zahlreichen Ländern (Frankreich, Italien, Griechenland, Israel, Libanon, Polen, Spanien, Malta) verfassten Aufsätze zielen darauf, die Hauptorte dieser neuen Sakralgeographie zu beschreiben und die Geschichte ihres Kultes aus historischer, religions- und kunstgeschichtlicher Sicht zu rekonstruieren.

The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. In Shrines in a Fluid Space: The Shaping of New Holy Sites in the Ionian Islands, the Peloponnese and Crete under Venetian Rule (14th-16th Centuries), Argyri Dermitzaki reconstructs the devotional experiences within the Greek realm of the Venetian Stato da Mar of Western European pilgrims sailing to Jerusalem. The author traces the evolution of the various forms of cultic sites and the perception of them as nodes of a wider network of the pilgrims’ ‘holy topography’. She scrutinises travelogues in conjunction with archaeological, visual and historical evidence and offers a study of the cultic phenomena and sites invested with exceptional meaning at the main ports of call of the pilgrims’ galleys in the Ionian Sea, the Peloponnese and Crete.

Reorienting the East explores the Islamic world as it was encountered, envisioned, and elaborated by Jewish travelers from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. The first comprehensive investigation of Jewish travel writing from this era, this study engages with questions raised by postcolonial studies and contributes to the debate over the nature and history of Orientalism as defined by Edward Said. Examining two dozen Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic travel accounts from the mid-twelfth to the early sixteenth centuries, Martin Jacobs asks whether Jewish travelers shared Western perceptions of the Islamic world with their Christian counterparts. Most Jews who detailed their journeys during this period hailed from Christian lands and many sailed to the Eastern Mediterranean aboard Christian-owned vessels. Yet Jacobs finds that their descriptions of the Near East subvert or reorient a decidedly Christian vision of the region. The accounts from the crusader era, in particular, are often critical of the Christian church and present glowing portraits of Muslim-Jewish relations. By contrast, some of the later travelers discussed in the book express condescending attitudes toward Islam, Muslims, and Near Eastern Jews. Placing shifting perspectives on the Muslim world in their historical, social, and literary contexts, Jacobs interprets these texts as mirrors of changing Jewish self-perceptions. As he argues, the travel accounts echo the various ways in which premodern Jews negotiated their mingled identities, which were neither exclusively Western nor entirely Eastern.

The book shows how the Franciscans in Jerusalem in the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries wrote works which standardized the cultural memory of the Holy Land. The experience of the late medieval Holy Land was deeply connected to the presence of the Franciscans of the Convent of Mount Zion in Jerusalem, who welcomed and guided pilgrims. This book analyses this construction of a shared memory based on the continuous availability of these texts in the Franciscan library of Mount Zion, where they were copied and adapted to respond to new historical contexts. This book shows how the Franciscans developed a representation of the Holy Land by elaborating on its history and describing its religious groups and the geography of the region. This representation circulated among pilgrims and influenced how contemporaries imagined the Holy Land

En la Edad Media se viaja por motivos políticos, por trabajo, para rezar o para estudiar: por los caminos se encuentran reyes y mercaderes, peregrinos y delincuentes, clérigos y juglares, marginados y caballeros andantes. Se navega por ríos, por lagos, por canales, por mares o por el océano. Este libro nos presenta a esta variada humanidad en camino mientras atraviesa países y continentes; reconstruye sus trayectos, sus penalidades, sus miedos, sus emociones. ¿Qué significaba ponerse en camino dejando atrás el propio hogar?, ¿cuáles eran los modos concretos de viajar?, ¿qué conocimientos nacían del saber geográfico y cuáles eran solo fantasías?, ¿cuáles eran los países por entonces conocidos?, ¿qué relaciones se establecían con los extranjeros? Curiosidad, inquietud, fe, deseo de aventura, ansias de conocer, necesidades materiales o exigencias del trabajo animan sin cesar este trasiego de gentes. Ningún libro de viajes, por muy fiel que sea, podrá describir la intensidad y la dimensión que caracterizaban el ir y venir de personas normales y corrientes por los caminos medievales.
