Breuning von Buchenbach, Hans Jakob; well known as an Oriental
traveller, also came as ambassador to England, 1595, from Duke
Frederick of Württemberg. Rye (q. v.) refers to him, but was
dependent on Sattler's history of Württemberg & on some letters
among English State Papers; but Breuning's own detailed account of
the journey has since been printed by the Stuttgart Lit. Verein
(vol. 81).
*Brown, P. Hume. "Early Travellers in Scotland," 1891.
Buchell, Arend van, An antiquary of Utrecht, whose "Commentarius
... rerum quotidianarum" includes records of journeys between
1584 and 1591. The text of his "Iter Italicum" has been printed
by Soc. Romana di Storia Patria (1900-02) with notes by Rodolfo
Lanciani; a translation of the parts concerning Germany begins in
vol. 84 of the Hist. Verein für den Niederrhein, 1907 & of those
concerning France under the title of "Description de Paris" in the
Mémoires of the Soc. de l'histoire de Paris, vol. 26, 1899. Brief
selections from the whole in the original Latin, forming a varied
& useful miscellany, will be found in vol. 21 of Series III of the
Historisch Gezelschap te Utrecht (1907).
=Busbecq's= letters (see chapter 1) are most conveniently read in
Forster & Daniel's "Life & Letters." 1881. All the letters are
translated there.
=Busino=, Orazio; chaplain to the Venetian Ambassador Contarini in
England and Spain (1617-18). For an account of the MSS. in which
he tells his experiences with exceptional brightness & point,
see Barozzi & Berchet's "Relazioni," Series IV, pp. 192-195.
Rawdon Brown's translation of what referred to England is among
the transcripts he presented to the Record Office in London; a
résumé of this was printed in the Quarterly Review, July, 1857.
On the latter I have had to be wholly dependent, but part of the
translation has just become available in print in the Calendar of
the State Papers (Venetian) for 1617-19.
Carmoly, E. "Itinéraires de la Terre-Sainte," 1847. All the
itineraries are Jewish ones dating from the 13th to 17th
centuries, translated from the Hebrew.
[Carve, Thomas; "Itinerarium," mainly in Germany during the Thirty
Years' War; but also Low Countries, England & Ireland. Rare,
quaint & valuable. In three parts; only complete edition, 1859.
Cf. Dict. Nat. Biog.]
=Casola=, Pietro. M. Margaret Newett's "Canon Pietro Casola's
Pilgrimage to Jerusalem," 1907: no. 5 of the Historical Series in
the Publications of the University of Manchester. This pilgrimage
took place in 1494, but the editor's researches among Venetian
archives throw much fresh light on the later phases of the subject.
Cecily, princess; see Roy. Hist. Soc., vol. 12.
*Chandler, F. W., "Literature of Roguery," 1899, contains a very full
bibliography of picaresque literature & an analysis of much of it.
