约翰·亨利·利奇：《一位多愁善感的闲人的书信：来自希腊、土耳其、埃及和圣地》。纽约，1869年 初版，8开本，出版商原装勃艮第红布面，书脊经精心重包，463页，内文洁净明亮，整体品相极佳。 约翰·亨利·利奇出版了这本收录了他游历奥斯曼帝国东部及希腊期间的书信与观察随笔的文集。他以“闲游者”的身份自居——这位闲适的绅士旅行的目的是为了观察人心与风景如画的景致，而非收集数据或绘制地图。然而，利奇对1860年代初期的政治和社会变迁有着敏锐的观察。他捕捉到了雅典那浪漫却往往混乱的氛围。他并不太关注柱子的高度，而更关注生活在废墟中的现代希腊人的情感。 他从君士坦丁堡寄出的书信，对这座城市的西化进程作出了轻松诙谐却往往尖锐的评论。他认为，采用欧洲的服饰和习俗，不过是覆盖在古老东方内核上的一层薄薄外衣。利奇代表了美国文学中的旅行文学传统，这种传统更重视个人反思和机智，而非枯燥的统计数据。
