García de Silva y Figueroa over the course of his embassy to Persia (1614?1624). The Commentaries transcend the travel-literature genre, emerging as a precocious European intellectual global history that is remarkable for its encyclopedic breadth, its historical depth, and its ethnographic and even artistic sensitivity. The Commentaries will be of interest to historians, ethnographers, and literary critics, or anyone with an interest in early modern European accounts of the encounter between the Portuguese and Spanish Empires and Safavid Persia during the early modern period. 410 0$aEuropean expansion and indigenous response ;$vVolume 26. 607 $aSpain$xForeign relations$zIran$vSources 607 $aIran$xForeign relations$zSpain$vSources 607 $aSpain$xForeign relations$y1516-1700$vSources 607 $aIran$xHistory$y16th-18th centuries$vSources 676 $a327.4605509/032 700 $aSilva y Figueroa$b Garci?a de$0643218 702 $aTurley$b Jeffrey Scott 702 $aSouza$b George Bryan 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792972103321 996 $aThe commentaries of D.
