イブン・バットゥータの「大旅行記」の抄訳解説つき版です。英語圏では完訳はないようですが、日本には東洋文庫にあります。フランス語だとネットで無料ダウンロードできます。なので、見つけた時にはラッキー!と思ったのですが、そうでもなかったです。ただ、日本語版は文庫といいつつ結構高い上に7冊組なので、ちょっとのぞいてみるには良いかもしれません。

Excellent book... Gives a full and vivid account of the lives of people who lived in islamic Asia and Europe, a peep into their daily life,biases and beliefs. A must read if you like to read travelogue and is interested in medieval history. This book is an abridged version of ibn battuta'original work, the author had done an excellent work, especially the notes portion of the book which elaborates on the historical context and some peculiar words or incidents narrated in book

It is great to go back in time and see the world as it was nearly 700 years ago with history's foremost traveller, Ibn Battuta. Tim MacIntosh-Smith's updated translation gives the true flavor of the original!

Très belle traduction facile à lire. Le récit est fascinant et les nombreux détails nous font facilement voyager dans l’âge d’or du monde musulman ! Ibn Battuta gagnerait à être plus connu et étudié car il est tout simplement admirable. C’est un voyageur, poète, juge, intellectuel, religieux... tour simplement fascinant !
