About This Book

O viajante defende a viagem como fonte de experiência, observação e crítica, e traça reflexões sobre o caráter e os costumes dos povos visitados. Alternando ensaio e crónica, compara traços sociais, políticos e culturais de diversas capitais, descreve modos de vida, hábitos de vestir, jantares e entretenimentos, e critica vícios públicos e pequenas corrupções. Oferece conselhos práticos e morais para quem viaja, elabora contrastes entre prudência e entusiasmo, ciência e superstição, e combina pitoresco anedótico com análise social, propondo a mobilidade como meio de educação e renovação pessoal.
