Summary: "Reisen in den Philippinen" by Fedor Jagor is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This work documents the author's explorations and observations in the Philippines during the years 1859 and 1860, highlighting the cultural, social, and geographical aspects of this archipelago. Jagor's account seems to mix personal narrative with detailed descriptions, drawing attention to the need for more accurate and comprehensive reports on the islands. At the start of the narrative, Jagor introduces the context of his travels and reflects on the limited information available about the Philippines at the time. He discusses the abrupt end to his journey due to unforeseen circumstances and mentions his reliance on thorough notes taken during his travels, emphasizing the importance of an accurate depiction over mere entertainment. The opening also outlines the geographical significance of Manila, the capital city, and sets the backdrop for the subsequent exploration of various provinces, wildlife, and the local customs that will follow in the chapters ahead.
