The Travels Of John Mandeville And The Translation Of The New Testament (1901)

""The Travels of John Mandeville and the Translation of the New Testament"" is a book originally published in 1901, written by John Mandeville. The book is a compilation of two separate works: the first being an account of the travels of John Mandeville, a 14th-century English knight, and the second being a translation of the New Testament into English.The section on John Mandeville's travels details his journeys through Europe, Asia, and Africa, and his encounters with various cultures and peoples. The account is written in a fantastical and exaggerated style, with Mandeville describing strange creatures, mythical lands, and miraculous events. Despite the fantastical nature of the account, it is considered an important historical document for its insights into medieval attitudes towards travel, religion, and cultural differences.The second section of the book is a translation of the New Testament into English, which was completed by John Mandeville in the 14th century. This translation is notable for being one of the earliest known translations of the New Testament into English, and for its influence on later translations.Overall, ""The Travels of John Mandeville and the Translation of the New Testament"" is a fascinating historical document that provides insights into medieval attitudes towards travel, religion, and cultural differences, as well as the early development of the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
