PSU Library Special Collections presents "Historic Travels to the Middle East," highlights from its Middle East Studies collection. This exhibit draws on a range of 17th- and 18th-century Western studies of the Middle East from fundamental academic works to popular memoirs, and features rare examples of cartography, scientific and landscape illustration, and early printing in Arabic. Materials in this collection have been acquired with generous support from the PSU Middle East Studies Center, the Gordon Hunter Fund, Gary and Patricia Leiser, and the Tarbell Family Foundation.
