The character Anakasis was a creation of Barthélémy and his travels took place in Greece in the 4th century BC The elaboration of this work took 30 years and was first published in 1788. It enjoyed enormous success during the late 18th century and the first decades of the XIX century. Clearly, it was one of the books that had the most influence on the French neo-classic generation, launching the theme of the “culture and training journey” in vogue. Starting from Scythia, the land of which he was a native, Anarkasis crosses the great cities of Hellas, describing their history, geography, customs, religion and cultural productions. In the middle of the 19th century, when contemplating the Greek civilization of this period, Jacob Burckhardt declared that it seemed that nature had been accumulating spiritual energies for centuries to squander them all at once. Through the pages and reports of this famous work we can understand the how and why of these words. At the same time as Barthélémy was composing his narrative, cartographer JG Barbie du Bocage created the Atlas for the work, with maps, plans and prints. The present copy preserves the 24 maps, 5 plans and 2 folding prints featuring Plato and his disciples and representation of coins, allegedly used by Anarkasis on his voyage. The maps, still highly esteemed and sought after, represent «Greece and its Islands», «The Passage of Thermopylae», «The Combat of Salamis», «Battle of Plataea», «The Hellespont», «Outskirts of Athens», «Thessaly», «The Topography of Olympia» among others.
