| Authorship Notes | In the preface of his 'State of France', Evelyn, being in an "Apodemick humour", gives his ideas on foreign travels. He provides an overview of the history of educational travels since antiquity, and continues with a series of general and rather conventional remarks. The last part of the text is an enumeration of suggested destinations throughout Europe. | ||||||||
