It analyzes the textual and iconographic changes the De Bry publishing family made to travel accounts describing Asia, Africa and the New World. It discusses this editorial strategy in the context of the publishing industry around 1600, investigating the biography of the De Brys, the publications of the Frankfurt firm, and the making of the collection, as well as its reception by Iberian inquisitors and seventeenth-century readers across the Old World. The book draws on a wide variety of primary sources, and is hence important for historians, book historians, and art historians interested in the development of Europe's overseas empires. 410 0$aLibrary of the written word.$pHandpress world ;$v2. 606 $aVoyages and travels 606 $aTravelers' writings, European 606 $aPublishers and publishing$zNetherlands$xHistory 615 0$aVoyages and travels. 615 0$aTravelers' writings, European. 615 0$aPublishers and publishing$xHistory. 676 $a910.4 700 $aGroesen$b Michiel van$01162218 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812324503321 996 $aThe representations of the overseas world in the De Bry Collection of voyages (1590-1634)$94014925 997 $aUNINA
