He made a significant impact on Russian literary life of the first half of the 19th century. As a writer and publicist he was known to the public mainly under his pen name “Baron Brambeus”. As a researcher, Sękowski criticized the approach of western orientalists who were trying to understand the mysteries of the East from outside, and argued for the need of deeper involvement, paired with abandoning the Europocentric point of view. The person of Sękowski continues to raise doubts and controversies today, his national identity and civic attitude being the most hotly debated issues – he was a Pole by birth, but a Russian by choice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis edition is based on the Polish text of Podróż w Nubii i wyższej Etyopii, (“Pamiętnik Warszawski” 1822, pp. 57 – 81) which Sękowski published immediately upon returning from his journey. Places omitted by the editors, which typically contained detailed descriptions of monuments, have been clearly marked. To retrieve the omitted parts it was necessary to refer the text published in Russian, from which they have not been removed (Puteshestve v Nubyu i verkhnyuyu Efiopyu, in: Sobranie sochinyeniy Senkovskago, ed. by P. Savelev, t. 1, Saint Petersburg 1858, pp. 24 – 58). Therefore, appropriate fragments from the Russian original have been translated and included in this edition. As a result, the Polish version presented here merges all the surviving fragments of Sękowski’s text. This edition has been provided with necessary explanations and comments, placed in footnotes. Their scope has been limited only to detailing the described monuments, certain elements of the state of research, and the correction of any possible misstatements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs far as possible, attempts have been made to enliven Sękowski’s report with appropriate illustrative material, reaching mainly for lesser-known drawings created during travels analogical to his pioneering expedition of 1821.","brand":"Archeobooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":13914873987135,"sku":"2314","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0222\/6404\/products\/Jozef-Julian-Sekowski_s-Journey-toEgypt-and-Upper-Ethiopia.jpg?v=1545752497"},{"product_id":"waclaw-sieroszewski-alexandria-notes-from-the-journey","title":"Waclaw Sieroszewski, Alexandria, Notes from the Journey","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 978-83-947582-0-2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription:\u003c\/strong\u003e softcover, 102 pp. (21x21cm), text in Polish and English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e new\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 295g.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB.

Their presence indicates that the Author probably used some other publications as support to write down his memories.

He traveled extensively throughout Egypt and Sudan between 1817 and 1822. During his stay, he worked as an epigraphist for Giovanni B. Belzoni in the tomb of Seti I and later entered into the service of British consul general Henry Salt and English explorer William John Bankes, on whose behalf he visited and documented Siwa (1820), Sinai (1820), and Nubia (1818–19 and 1821–22). Ricci also became the physician to Ibrahim Pasha and achieved fame for daringly saving his life during the military campaign that led to Egypt’s conquest of Sudan in 1821–22. Upon his return to Italy, Ricci wrote a long account of all his journeys and reworked a series of ninety plates into striking form, yet failed to publish either.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn 2009, Daniele Salvoldi identified a complete typewritten copy of Ricci’s Travels in the National Archives of Egypt in Cairo.

From Siena to Nubia is the English-translated critical edition, with notes and introductory chapters, of Ricci’s travel account, which provides detailed information about the countries he visited, including descriptions of ancient ruins and social customs, botanical and geological remarks, and historical and ethnographical observations. It adds to the recent, growing corpus of exploration literature on nineteenth-century Egypt as well as bringing to light obscure sources important to the early history of Egyptology.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAcknowledgments\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSources of Plates\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMaps\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlessandro Ricci and His Travels\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.

He made a significant impact on Russian literary life of the first half of the 19th century. As a writer and publicist he was known to the public mainly under his pen name “Baron Brambeus”. As a researcher, Sękowski criticized the approach of western orientalists who were trying to understand the mysteries of the East from outside, and argued for the need of deeper involvement, paired with abandoning the Europocentric point of view.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe current, new edition has been enriched with the description of a trip to the pyramids of Giza and Saqqara undertaken by Sękowski in the early February 1821, prior to his departure further south. The account was only published in Russian; the version provided here is based on my translation. Since no written accounts have survived from Sękowski’s journey further up the Nile (before he reached Philae Island), I decided to include here also his brief review concerning one of the Colossi of Memnon.
