metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article presents early printed Dutch books from the Wrocław University Library (Poland), one of the richest collections of neerlandica outside the Netherlands
  and Flanders. Attention is given to travel books from the Netherlands in the 17th and
  18th centuries. Among them is De Waerachtighe beschrijvinge vande drie zeylagien …
  by noorden Noorvveghen, Moscovien ende Tartarien… (‘The True Description of the
  Three Sea Voyages … along North Norway, Moscovia and Tartaria…’) by Gerrit de
  Veer in the 1619  edition (which focuses on life on the White Sea and on Novaya
  Zemlya, and to the inhabitants of these areas: Nenets, Lapps, and Russians). There are
  also travel books about expeditions to the Southern Hemisphere of the world, such as
  the Iovrnael (‘Journal’) by Hendrick Ottsen about Rio de la Plata from 1617 (where
  penguins are described), the Beschrijvinghe (‘Description‘) by Pieter de Marees, or
  works by Olfert Dapper from the late 17th century about African countries. The late
  17th and early 18th centuries are represented by Eberhard IJsbrant Ides’ and Adam
  Brand’s Driejarige reize naar China (‘Three Years’ Journey to China‘), as well as Reizen
  over Moskovië, door Persië en Indië (‘Travels across Moscovia, Persia and India‘) from
  1714 by Cornelis de Bruyn. The article also presents a brief history of the library in
  Wrocław and provides an answer to the question of why such a rich collection of neerlandica can be found in this (rather unknown) Polish city of Wrocław. The article
  ends with an invitation to Russian and other colleagues to study the old prints in the
  Wrocław collection.
