Bøker av Armin Vambery

Vida y aventuras de Armin Vambéry relata las apasionantes experiencias del renombrado lingüista húngaro Armin Vambéry durante su inolvidable viaje por Asia central a mediados del siglo XIX. A través de las páginas de este cautivador relato, el lector es transportado a una época única, cuando Vambéry emprendió un viaje audaz y temerario por las vastas tierras que abarcan desde Anatolia hasta las estepas de Asia central.El libro comienza con su infancia en una familia judía y pobre en Eslovaquia y su educación autodidacta en lenguas extranjeras. Luego nos cuenta su viaje a Estambul, donde se convirtió en tutor de lenguas europeas y aprendió turco otomano. Vambéry también describe su arriesgada travesía a Persia, Bujará y Samarcanda, adonde se dirigió haciéndose pasar por un peregrino derviche. A medida que avanza el relato, nos encontramos con una narrativa rica en detalles sobre encuentros con tribus nómadas, intercambios culturales y desafíos extraordinarios en territorios desconocidos.Las memorias de Vambéry no solo ofrecen una visión penetrante de la vida cotidiana en Asia central, sino que también exploran los eventos históricos y políticos que marcaron la región en esa época. A través de sus ojos, los lectores descubrirán la diversidad lingüística, las tradiciones cautivadoras y las conexiones humanas que formaron parte fundamental de su periplo.Esta edición está ilustrada con los magníficos grabados del talentoso orientalista francés Eugène Flandin, así como de otros artistas contemporáneos.
