Théophile Gautier (1811-1872) "Qui a bu boira," assure le proverbe ; on pourrait modifier légèrement la formule, et dire avec non moins de justesse : "Qui a voyagé voyagera." – La soif de voir, comme l’autre soif, s’irrite au lieu de s’éteindre en se satisfaisant. Me voici à Constantinople, et déjà je songe au Caire et à l’Égypte. L’Espagne, l’Italie, l’Afrique, l’Angleterre, la Belgique, la Hollande, une partie de l’Allemagne, la Suisse, les îles grecques, quelques échelles de la côte d’Asie, visitées à plusieurs époques et à diverses reprises, n’ont fait qu’augmenter ce désir de vagabondage cosmopolite. Le voyage est peut-être un élément dangereux à introduire dans la vie, car il trouble profondément et cause des inquiétudes semblables à celles des oiseaux de passage prisonniers au moment des migrations, si quelque circonstance ou quelque devoir vous empêche de partir. On sait que l’on va s’exposer à des fatigues, à des privations, à des ennuis, à des périls même, il en coûte de renoncer à de chères habitudes d’esprit et de cœur, de quitter sa famille, ses amis, ses relations, pour l’inconnu, et cependant l’on sent qu’il est impossible de rester, et ceux qui vous aiment n’essayent pas de vous retenir et vous serrent silencieusement la main sur le marchepied de la voiture. En effet, ne faut-il pas parcourir un peu la planète sur laquelle nous gravitons à travers l’immensité, jusqu’à ce que le mystérieux auteur nous transporte dans un monde nouveau pour nous faire lire une autre page de son œuvre infinie ? N’est-ce pas une coupable paresse d’épeler toujours le même mot sans jamais tourner le feuillet ? Quel poète serait satisfait de voir le lecteur s’en tenir à une seule de ses strophes ?" Le romancier et poète Théophile Gautier, en 1852, part pour Constantinople.et nous conte son voyage...

Veteran journalist and southern storyteller Tom Poland has been writing about the disappearing rural South for nearly four decades. With a companionable appreciation for nostalgia, preservation, humor, and wonder, Georgialina: A Southland as We Knew It brings to life once more the fading and often-forgotten unfiltered character of the South as Poland takes readers down back roads to old homeplaces, covered bridges, and country stores. He recalls hunting for snipes and for lost Confederate gold; the joys of beach music, the shag, and cruising Ocean Drive; and the fading traditions of sweeping yards with homemade brooms, funeral processions, calling catfish, and other customs of southern heritage and history. Peppered with candid memoir, Georgialina also introduces readers to a host of quirky and memorable characters who have populated the southland of Poland's meanderings.As commercialization, homogenization, and relocation have slowly altered distinctive regions of the country, making all places increasingly similar, southern traditions have proven to be more resilient than most. But Poland notes that many elements that once defined day-to-day life in the South are now completely foreign to contemporary generations. Set primarily in Poland's native Georgia and adopted home of South Carolina, his tales of bygone times resonate across a recognizably southern landscape and faithfully recall the regional history and lore that have defined the South for generations as a place uniquely its own for natives, newcomers, and visitors.

Sojourner in Islamic Lands takes us on a journey from Kazakhstan in the far north of Central Asia, across the mountains to the former Soviet Union, then south to Iran just below the Caspian Sea. Russell Fraser follows the ancient Silk Road wherever possible. For centuries the Silk Road was the primary commercial link between Europe and Asia, with much of it over desert sands and accessible only by camel. Building on history and personal experience, Fraser's narrative describes this vast territory with an eye to geography, artistic culture, and religion over more than two thousand years.The book that he gives us depends first of all on travel, but the author's eye is on an interior landscape, and he focuses on the influence of religious ideology on the cultural landscape of Central Asia. Delving deeply into art and architecture, he takes them to be Islam's most significant creative expressions. Although Islam is currently the predominant religion in the region, the book also examines the two other belief systems with modern-day followers—Christianity and an antireligious sect Fraser calls secular progressivism.His aim is to present Islam to Western readers by describing its achievements during the High Middle Ages and comparing and contrasting them with those of modern Islam. The book offers insights into the history of a major world religion through the eyes of a well-known literary scholar on a journey through exotic parts of the world. He steeps us in the latter, inviting the reader to share the journey with him and participate in the sensations it gives rise to.
