This engaging and fascinating book delves into a topic that has rarely been studied: travel in the medieval world. Presenting a cast of (usually moneyed) characters who traveled for religious or political reasons, or purely out of a desire for knowledge, adventure, or entertainment, this examination lays the stale concept of the medieval man as a static individual to rest. Este libro ameno y fascinante se enfoca sobre un tema poco estudiado: el viaje en el mundo medieval. Presentando un reparto de personajes frecuentemente adinerados que viajaban por razones religiosas o políticas, o por un deseo por conocimiento, aventura o diversión, este examen acaba con el concepto trasnochado del hombre medieval como un ser estático.
