About this product

Product Information

Johann Ludwig Burckhardt (1784 - 1817) was born in Lausanne, Switzerland. In 1806 he first travelled with an African Association expedition to explore the interior of Africa. Three years later he was in North Africa, where disguised as an Arab, he travelled widely, becoming so fluent in Arabic dialects and customs that he passed as an Arab merchant, travelling in 1814 to Mecca, a city forbidden to n-Muslims. Arabic Provers, first published in 1830, is a collection of proverbial sayings, originally compiled by Sheref Addin Ibn Asad, in Cairo, at the beginning of the eighteenth century. Burckhardt translated and antated these sayings in the hope that they might interest and gratify the Orientalist . The work provides an intriguing insight into the manners of customs of Egyptians two-hundred years ago.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++
