The Atlas series brings back to light publications that have become impossible to find, documenting the journeys of explorers, the expeditions of anthropologists and ethnographical studies carried out over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, accompanied by photographs, illustrations or previously unpublished archive imagery. These are journeys which turned into adventures through the realms of knowledge and which have changed our way of looking at those places. Journeys that have become classics of travel literature, reissued here with introductions, new visual materials as well as contributions by contemporary artists who offer their reinterpretation of the original pages.
