Remarks |
This text was published in Kircher's China illustrata (Amsterdam 1667, p. 157-162) complimented by illustrations. As stated in the published work, it was provided by Fr. Heinrich Roth (Henricus Roa), missionary in the Mughal Empire, who a accompanied Fr. Grueber from Agra to Rome (1662-1664) after Fr. Albert d'Orville's demise. The handwriting is consistent with extant letters from Roth to Kircher (APUG Ms. 562, f. 113rv; 563, f. 281rv and 563, f. 78rv) |
