In this volume, scholars employ these little-known texts in a wide range of Asian and European languages to trace how Central Asia was gradually absorbed into global affairs. The representations of the region brought home to China and Japan, India and Persia, Russia and Great Britain, provide valuable evidence that helps map earlier periods of globalization and cultural interaction. 606 $aTravel writing$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aTravel writing$xHistory and criticism$vCongresses 606 $aVisitors, Foreign$zAsia, Central$xHistory$vCongresses 607 $aAsia, Central$xDescription and travel$vCongresses 615 0$aTravel writing$xHistory 615 0$aTravel writing$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aVisitors, Foreign$xHistory 676 $a915.804 701 $aGreen$b Nile$0792593 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818367003321 996 $aWriting travel in Central Asian history$94017966 997 $aUNINA
