Das Amphitheater ist also das erste bedeutende Monument der alten Zeit, das ich sehe, und so gut erhalten! Als ich hineintrat, mehr noch aber, als ich oben auf dem Rande umherging, schien es mir seltsam, etwas Großes und doch eigentlich nichts zu sehen. Auch will es leer nicht gesehen sein, sondern ganz voll von Menschen, wie man es neuerer Zeit Joseph dem Zweiten und Pius dem Sechsten zu Ehren veranstaltet. Der Kaiser, der doch auch Menschenmassen vor Augen gewohnt war, soll darüber erstaunt sein.

Spain's position on Europe's southwestern corner has exposed it to cultural, political and actual winds blowing from all quadrants. Africa lies a mere nine miles to the south. The Mediterranean connects it to the civilisational currents of Phoenicians, Romans, Carthaginians and Byzantines as well as the Arabic lands of the Near East. Hordes from the Russian steppes were amongst the first to arrive. They would be followed by Visigoths, Arabs, Napoleonic armies and many more invaders and immigrants.

Andersens erste Auslandsreise im Jahr 1831 führte nach Deutschland. Ausgestattet mit einem Empfehlungsschreiben für das Hause Tieck und in großer Erwartung, sein literarisches Vorbild zu treffen, ließ er sich, wie wir in dieser Reiseaufzeichnung hören, auf die Stadt Dresden ein. Andersen genoss bei seinem mehrtägigen Aufenthalt und zwischen den Besuchen bei Tieck die herrlichen Bauwerke und Kunstschätze. Andersen ist gelassen, heiter, staunt über das bunte Menschentreiben, bewundert Albertbrücke und die Gemälde in der Galerie, sucht Ruhe in der Katholischen Hofkirche.

The challenging 256 mile route is usually approached from south to north, from Edale in the Peak District to Kirk Yetholm, the other side of the Scottish border. He resolved to tackle it the other way round: through beautiful and bleak terrain, across lonely fells and into the howling wind, he would be walking home, towards the Yorkshire village where he was born.
