| Authorship Notes | This translated work is a practical guide to travel routes and fairs across the European continent. However, the prefatory materials contain numerous examples of apodemic images and metaphors such as citing Lipsius on comparing travellers to celestial bodies which delight in motion, and bees bringing home the 'sweet honey of experience'. | ||||
