Travelling is one of the most fascinating phenomena that has inspired writers and scholars from Antiquity to our postmodern age. The father of history, Herodotus, was also a traveller, whose Histories can easily be considered a travel account. The first volume of this book is dedicated to the period starting from Herodotus himself until the end of the Middle Ages with focus on the Balkans, the Byzantine Empire, the Islamic world, and South-Eastern Europe. Research on travellers who connected civilizations; manuscript and literary traditions; musicology; geography; flora and fauna as reflected in travel accounts, are all part of this thought-provoking collected volume dedicated to detailed aspects of voyages and travel accounts up to the end of the sixteenth century. The second volume of this book is dedicated to the period between Early Modernity and today, including modern receptions of travelling in historiography and literature. South-Eastern Europe and Serbia; the Chinese, Ottoman, and British perception of travelling; pilgrimages to the Holy land and other sacred sites; Serbian, Arabic, and English literature; legal history and travelling, and other engaging topics are all part of the second volume dedicated to aspects of voyages and travel accounts up to the contemporary era.

Este volumen trata de dibujar un mapa estratégico que sirva de guía para el acercamiento a la literatura de viajes producida en el Medievo y Renacimiento europeos: libros verídicos (cruzadas, peregrinaciones, embajadas, misiones, viajes comerciales, expediciones bélicas), viajes seudo-históricos o ficcionalizados, geografías y mapas comentados, cosmografía alegórica, secciones enciclopédicas, mundos imaginados, bestiarios…El libro propone una aproximación interdisciplinar a una región de la cultura en el pasado tan fascinante como todavía inexplorada: "Mares, sueños, vuelos y paraísos", "El viaje a Jerusalén y a los lugares sagrados: cruzada y peregrinación", "Libros de maravillas" y "Espacios narrativos". A la vez, sugiere una reflexión actual sobre el viaje antiguo -más que nunca vigente, ¿viaje sólo de ida y vuelta?- desde el Mediterráneo a Oriente.
