Autoren-Porträt von Jerónimo Lobo
Jerónimo Lobo (1593-1678) was a Jesuit missionary and explorer whose work, 'A Voyage to Abyssinia', has given significant insights into the geography and culture of 17th-century Ethiopia. Born in Lisbon, Portugal, Lobo joined the Society of Jesus in 1604 and was later sent to India and Ethiopia as a missionary. Although his evangelical mission faced many difficulties, Lobo's contributions were more far-reaching in the realm of literature and exploration than religious conversion. His detailed observations of the lands he visited, customs, languages, and political systems are preserved in his narrative. 'A Voyage to Abyssinia', Lobo's seminal work, was posthumously published in 1735 and has been critical for historians and scholars interested in early modern Ethiopia and the activities of Jesuits in that region. His writings are characterized by a straightforward literary style suffused with a sense of adventure and keen anthropological observation. This style has provided an authentic glimpse into the interactions between Europe and Africa during a pivotal era of cultural and political change. Lobo's work has often been praised for its accurate depictions and has served as a valuable historical document for understanding the context of his times.
