Abstract

The Travels and Journal of Ambrosio Bembo is a seventeenth-century travelogue that offers contemporary readers an uncommon glimpse into the culture and civilization of Western Asia and India over three hundred years ago. Born in 1652 to a distinguished Venetian family, Ambrosio Bembo served in the Venetian navy and took part in several wars before completing his term of service. With military life behind him, Bembo left Venice in 1671 at the age of nineteen to follow the route of Pietro della Valle, another celebrated seventeenth-century traveler from Venice.
