The Riddle and the Knight : In Search of Sir John Mandeville, the World's Greatest Traveler
Author Info: Giles Milton
Though once one of the most famous men and influential authors in all of Christendom, Sir John Mandeville's reputation has been in decline for roughly five hundred years. His book of Travels , published in the mid 1300s, detailed his 34 year journey (1322-56) through the Near East, Middle East and Far East, successively. For Europeans who knew little or nothing of these regions, his tales of fantastic animals and of the legendary Prestor John seemed plausible enough and the book was assumed to be true in its entirety. In fact, Shakespeare and Milton were influenced by his work and Columbus is purported to have used it as the basis for his decision to try sailing to China by heading West. But then the great European explorers began to actually arrive in the places that Mandeville claimed to have visited and, particularly when they reached the Far East, many of his more colorful observations proved to be quite fanciful. Subsequent investigations by literary critics revealed that great swaths of the book had been lifted from the writings of others, a practice that was not so uncommon in that earlier day, but which necessarily raised further doubts about his veracity. The backlash against Mandeville ultimately grew to the point where the very notion that he ever traveled came to be doubted and even his existence was questioned by some.

The Travels of Sir John Mandeville
A splendid illuminated manuscript by a fifteenth century Bohemian master, The Travels of Sir John Mandeville presents 28 full-page miniatures that illustrate the popular and eventful story of Sir John's travels. Inspired by the text of the Travels, which is considered to be "the first romance of travel in modern times" and was the most widely read travel book of the Middle Ages, the miniatures offer a portrait of the personages, places, events, and myths encountered by Mandeville on his pilgramage through the exotic lands. Through their delicately beautiful rendering, the scenes center on the spheres of interest to all medieval Christians and the highlights of any medieval pilgramage.

87. Sir John Mandeville. Pèlerin D'Orient

http://www.jerusalem-pedibus.net/site_fr/mande_fr.html
Sir John Mandeville
Les voyages de sir John Mandeville, chevalier, e Mais toutes les connaissances géographiques de Mandeville ne pouvaient être circonscrites aux voyages vers Jérusalem, même si l’un des itinéraires passait par le Turkestan. Ainsi, lorsqu’ils sont achevés, y compris un complément de légendes sur le Sinaï et l'Egypte, l’auteur présente, dans une deuxième partie du livre, un compte-rendu du monde oriental au-delà des frontières de la Palestine. On y découvre un tableau très vivant de la cour du Grand Khan et du Prêtre Jean, de l’Inde et de la Chine. Il y a cette même combinaison du véridique et du fabuleux, mais les fables sont plus "hardies" : on y parle de la croissance des diamants et des fourmis qui gardent des collines de poussière d'or, de la fontaine de jouvence, du paradis terrestre et de la vallée des diables. Les deux parties du livre ont été compilées à partir de relations de voyages authentiques complétées de références d’origines très diverses. Les voyages vers Jérusalem sont principalement tirés d’un récit ancien de la première croisade par Albert d'Aix, écrit deux siècles et demi avant Mandeville, et les passages récents d'un certain nombre de livres de pèlerinage des douzième et treizième siècles. La deuxième moitié du travail de Mandeville est "un plagiat déformé" des voyages d'un missionnaire franciscain, Frère Odoric de Pordenone (1330), dans lequel s’entassent toutes sortes de détails, de merveilles et bribes d’histoire naturelle puisés dans des sources comme

http://faculty.juniata.edu/tuten/mandevil.html
Sir John Mandeville on Prester John
This text, attribuuted to "Sir John Mandeville" was written circa 1366, and presents a series of picturesque fables about the east. These stories fascinated Western Europeans, as did the more reliable [slightly!] stories of Marco Polo. One way of understanding Western interest in the rest of the world is to see the process by which interest became research, research became knowledge, and knowledge became power. By the time Europe was able to expand in the 16th century and later, it was far better equipped to understand, and if necessary undermine, other cultures than other cultures were to understand Europe. Questions:
1. Who is Prester John?
2. Do you think Mandeville really visited the East? Why or why not? Chapter XXX Of the Royal Estate of Prester John. And of a rich man that made a marvellous castle and cleped it Paradise and of his subtlety. This emperor, Prester John, holds full great land, and hath many full noble cities and good towns in his realm and many great diverse isles and large. For all the country of Ind is devised in isles for the great floods that come from Paradise, that depart all the land in many parts. And also in the sea he hath full many isles. And the best city in the Isle of Pentexoire is Nyse, that is a full royal city and a noble, and full rich. This Prester John hath under him many kings and many isles and many diverse folk of diverse conditions. And this land is full good and rich, but not so rich as is the land of the great Chan. For the merchants come not thither so commonly for to buy merchandises, as they do in the land of the great Chan, for it is too far to travel to. And on that other part, in the Isle of Cathay, men find all manner thing that is need to mancloths of gold, of silk, of spicery and all manner avoirdupois. And therefore, albeit that men have greater cheap in the Isle of Prester John, natheles, men dread the long way and the great perils m the sea in those parts.

Reviewed in University of Toronto Quarterly Volume 68, Number 1 Winter 1998/99- Letters in Canada 1997 Suzanne Conklin Akbari
Higgins describes the remarkable confluence of cartography and written text in late medieval and early modern efforts to image the world: the author of The Book cites mappae mundi (stylized, east-centred medieval maps of the world) as authorities for the geography he describes, while the earliest surviving globe (1492) gives `John of Mandavilla' as one of its authorities. Higgins's fifth chapter, on `Earthly Symmetry,' is particularly rich with regard to this confluence: his approach here is likely to influence not only the study of The Book in particular but also the methodology used to interpret medieval efforts to imagine the world.

THE PROLOGUE
FOR as much as the land beyond the sea, that is to say the Holy
Land, that men call the Land of Promission or of Behest, passing
all other lands, is the most worthy land, most excellent, and lady
and sovereign of all other lands, and is blessed and hallowed of
the precious body and blood of our Lord Jesu Christ; in the which
land it liked him to take flesh and blood of the Virgin Mary, to environ that holy land with his blessed feet; and there he would of his blessedness enombre him in the said blessed and glorious Virgin Mary, and become man, and work many miracles, and preach and teach the faith and the law of Christian men unto his children; and there it liked him to suffer many reprovings and scorns for us; and he that was king of heaven, of air, of earth, of sea and of all things that be contained in them, would all only be clept king of that land, when he said, REX SUM JUDEORUM, that is to say, 'I am King of Jews'; and that land he chose before all other lands, as the best

Acton, Lord
Acton was against "programmes of reaction" and thought that there could be great reliance on those institutions that came about as the result of slow evolution. That, ultimately, what was to be trusted were those "changes arising from special historical situations rather than from the minds of presumptuous men."

Bastiat, Frédéric
Bastiat was of the view that those who subscribe to socialism subscribe to putting in place mechanisms, a philanthropic tyranny, which would but force the human race (a futile effort) to behave as the social engineers think the human race ought to behave as opposed to how it behaves by nature.
Bentham, Jeremy
In Bentham's writings, politicians, beginning with those of the early 19th century, found legitimization in their most favoured activity: the business of making laws; and, they have been doing it in great quantities ever since. Bentham the business Bentham figured that laws should be socially useful and not merely reflect the status quo; he thought it to be a "sacred truth" that "the greatest happiness of the greatest number is the foundation of morals and legislation."
