Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Cuando ya el Tibet ha dejado de ser el lugar exótico y misterioso que aún era para Harrer o Peissel (últimos viajeros literarios por las mesetas del Techo del Mundo, antes de que Lobsang Rampa se apropiara casi en exclusiva del material lamaseista), la lectura de un libro de viajes del siglo pasado, que describe paisajes y costumbres ya muy vulgarizados, donde percibimos incluso resonancia de otros autores, sólo puede tener un objetivo: degustar el estilo del relato. Y es un estilo, el de Isabella L. Bishop a la vez nervioso y barroco, poco habitual de la literatura de viajes femenina, en el que abundan las ennumeraciones semicaóticas de hechos y elementos del paisaje, con una acumulación desbordante de efectos, de gran vigor expresivo a ratos, evidentemente ordenada a trasmitir la misma tensión, el mismo carácter de reto que el viaje parecía tener para nuestra autora. Basta comparar este estilo con el moroso y espeso ritmo narrativo de Alexandra David-Neel, sobre temas y paisajes rarecidos, para darse cuenta del injusto olvido a que Isabella L. Bishop ha estado sometida, debido sin duda a su escaso aparejo místico. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Golden Chersonese and the way tither
Seller: Naval and Military Press Ltd, Uckfield, United Kingdom
Seller rating 3 out of 5 stars
2007 reprint by Rediscovery Books (original 1883). SB.xvi+ 384pp with 15 illustrations ,& 2 maps ( n colour). This book essentially consists of the letters to her sister Henrietta, from Isabella L. Bird during her travels in the Malay Peninsula in the early 1880s. Despite the ill health of her youth; something that sporadically arose primarily when she was not travelling, Bird became the most famed of nineteenth century female travel writers and this culminated a decade later in her becoming the first woman to be inducted into the Royal Geographical Society.Here she provides us with a charming personal narrative of her travels and adventures in what was then a region scarcely visited by European travellers, let alone a single lady. Being the bearer of official letters of accreditation, she was welcomed by officials throughout the territory and these enabled her to gain a fascinating insight into the people, language and culture of these islands. Coming from Japan she describes her visits to, amongst other places, Hong Kong, Canton, Singapore, Malacca and Perak very much in her characteristic 'through her own eyes' style. An extensive account that must be read by anyone interested in this period and these places.
