A Report of the Kingdom of Congo and of the Surrounding Countries
Drawn Out of the Writings and Discourses of the Portuguese, Duarte Lopez, by Filippo Pigafetta, in Rome, 1591
Omschrijving
This fascinating account by the Portuguese trader Duarte Lopez, transcribed by the Italian mathematician Filippo Pigafetta (1533–1604), demonstrates the extent of Portuguese exploration across West Africa in the sixteenth century, of which later explorers were unaware. First published in Italian in 1591, this English annotated translation appeared in 1881.
