Lecture: Jan Willem Drijvers, Cornelis de Bruijn (1652-1727) and the Rediscovery of Persepolis
May 4, 2010 (18:00)
Abstract:
The
travel books of Cornelis de Bruijn, one of the most important travelers
of the Dutch Golden Age, constituted important contributions to
European scholarly knowledge about the Orient, Russia and the Far East.
In particular the many drawings in De Bruijn’s travel accounts are of
high quality value and great importance. The focus in this talk will be
on De Bruijn’s description in words and pictures of the ancient palace
complex of Persepolis, and the scholarly debate it aroused.
Özet:
Holanda
Altın Çağı’nın en önemli gezginlerinden biri olan Cornelis de Bruijn’in
seyahat kitapları, Avrupa’nın Doğu, Rusya ve Uzakdoğu hakkında sahip
olduğu ilmi bilgilere kayda değer bir katkı sağlamıştır. Özellikle De
Bruijn’in eserlerinde yer verdiği çok sayıdaki çizim hem oldukça yüksek
bir kalite sergilemekte hem de büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu konuşmanın
odak noktasını De Bruijn’in Persepolis’deki antik saray kompleksini
kelime ve çizimleriyle anlatımı ile uyandırdığı bilimsel tartışmalar
oluşturacaktır.
