Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The global reach of the Spanish and Portuguese empires prompted a remarkable flourishing of the classical rhetorical tradition in various parts of the early modern world. Empire of Eloquence is the first study to examine this tradition as part of a wider global renaissance in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa, with a particular focus on the Iberian world.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Ianua Indica (Indian Gateway) of Ignazio Arcamone S.J. (ca. 1615-1683) is the first comparative grammar of two South Asian vernaculars, Konkani and Marathi.

It also features an extended introduction to this forgotten milestone in the history of Indology that outlines Arcamone's reliance on the techniques of 'Jesuit world philology' and the intellectual formation of the author in Italy and India.…
