| 520 | _a"Viaggi di Ali Bey el-Abbassi in Africa ed in Asia, v. 2" by Ali Bey is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work documents the travels and observations of the author, who is a European traveler, as he explores the landscapes, cultures, and societies of Morocco and beyond during his travels between 1803 and 1807. The narrative encompasses vivid descriptions of cities, people's customs, religious practices, and the socio-political structures of the regions visited. The opening of the book delves into the city of Marrakech, shedding light on its historical grandeur and the present desolation brought on by wars and disease. Ali Bey provides rich descriptions of the city's architecture, its markets, and the living conditions of its inhabitants, including the treatment of Jews and the lifestyle of the saints revered in Moroccan society. The narrative begins with a detailed account of his observations, which include reflections on local customs, significant buildings like the Sultan's palace, and the natural environment of the region, all while hinting at his disdain for the oppressive despotism faced by the local populace. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of his travels and intellectual pursuits as he documents both the beauty and the hardships he encounters in this foreign territory.
