Indien hautnah! Fast 30.000 Kilometer hatte Mathias schon hinter sich, als er sein Reiseziel erreichte Bharat Mata, Mutter Indien, wie es die Inder liebevoll nennen und sein groes Abenteuer begann. Ganz allein mit dem Auto unterwegs, durchquert Mathias ganz Indien von Ost uber Sud nach West und kommt dabei taglich an Grenzen, die ihm als Reisendem, aber auch als Menschen, alles abverlangen. Kein Tag vergeht, an dem sein Auto nicht um Haaresbreite in einen schweren Unfall verwickelt wird. Momente der Ruhe und der Einsamkeit finden sich nur selten in einem Land, das standig in Bewegung ist. Er kommt dem Tod sehr nahe, gibt sich zwischendurch als Diplomat aus und landet das eine oder andere Mal in der indischen Zeitung. Dabei taucht Mathias immer tiefer in die Kultur eines Landes ein, die so unubersichtlich und komplex ist, dass es auch eine eigene Welt fur sich sein konnte. Wahrend seiner 4-monatigen Offroad-Camper-Tour durch Indien stellt sich der Weltenbummler Mathias Vatterodt jeden Tag diese Fragen: Was um Himmels Willen mache ich eigentlich hier? Warum habe ich mir von allen Landern auf der Welt ausgerechnet Indien als Ziel fur mein Sabbat-Jahr ausgesucht? Und warum zieht mich dieses Land trotzdem jeden Tag mit einer so intensiven Energie in seinen Bann? Die Antworten auf seine Fragen findet er jedoch erst, als seine Reise schon langst vorbei ist. Indien, so steht fur ihn fest, geht unter die Haut!

In "Travels in Tartary, Tibet, and China During the Years 1844-1846," Evariste Régis Huc presents an intricate account of his extensive journeys through some of Asias most enigmatic regions. With a keen eye for detail and a vivid narrative style, Huc captures the cultural, spiritual, and geographical landscapes of Tibet and China during a period of great change. His observations reflect a blend of adventure and scholarly inquiry, as Huc provides insight into local customs, religious practices, and geopolitical tensions, positioning his work within the broader context of 19th-century Western exploration and enlightenment thinking. Evariste Regis Huc, a French missionary and explorer, was driven by a deep fascination with the East. His experiences in these remote lands were shaped by his responsibilities as a Jesuit priest, leading him to adopt a dual lens of both faith and observation. His background in philosophy and theology informs his reflections on the rich tapestry of beliefs and practices encountered throughout his travels, as well as the challenges faced by European missionaries in understanding and interacting with diverse cultures. This book is highly recommended for both scholars and enthusiasts of travel literature, as it not only chronicles Hucs remarkable adventures but also offers critical insights into the historical and cultural interplay of the period. Readers seeking an authentic and richly detailed perspective on 19th-century Asia will find Hucs work a compelling addition to their literary explorations.

In "Etruscan Places," D. H. Lawrence embarks on a profound journey through Italys ancient Etruscan landscapes, art, and culture, juxtaposing his introspective prose with vivid descriptions that evoke both the physical and spiritual essence of the locations. The text showcases Lawrences characteristic lyrical style, blending travelogue, philosophy, and a deep appreciation for the natural world, as he reflects on the relationship between humanity and its environment. Written during the early 20th century, against a backdrop of burgeoning modernism and a retreat from industrialization, the book serves as both a personal pilgrimage and a critique of contemporary societys disconnection from its roots. D.H. Lawrence, an English novelist and poet, was deeply influenced by his own life experiences, including his tumultuous relationships and fascination with the primal aspects of human existence. His travels through Europe, particularly in Italy, offered him an escape from the constraints of English society and provided fertile ground for his explorations of art, culture, and identity. Lawrences deep engagement with the Etruscan civilization reflects his broader quest for authentic experience amid modern malaise. "Etruscan Places" is a compelling exploration for readers invested in the intersections of art, history, and personal identity. As Lawrence captures the essence of the Etruscan spirit, he invites readers to contemplate the enduring connections between past and present, making this book a rewarding read for both admirers of literary travel writing and those seeking to understand the intricacies of cultural legacy.
