[from old catalog] Esploratore turco. English [from old catalog] Letters writ by a Turkish spy, who lived five and forty years undiscovered at Paris: giving an impartial account to the Divan at Constantinople, of the most remarkable transactions of Europe: and discovering several intrigues and secrets of the Christian courts (especially of that of France). Continued from the year 1637, to the year 1682. Written originally in Arabick, translated into Italian, from thence into English, and now published with a large historical preface and index to illustrate the whole, by the translator of the first volume ... 26th ed. London : A. Wilde [etc.] 1770. v. ; 17 cm. Authorities agree that the first part of the work, published in Paris in 1684, was written by Marana. The remainder has been ascribed to several Englishmen, among them Dr. Robert Midgley and William Bradshaw. It is probable however that Midgley simply edited the English translation, made by Bradshaw, of the original Italian mansucript. cf.
