| Summary | "La Perse, la Chaldée et la Susiane" by Jane Dieulafoy is a travel account written in the late 19th century. The work chronicles the author's expedition through ancient lands, particularly focusing on the historical and artistic influences of Persia on Western architecture. It reflects Dieulafoy’s experiences and observations as she journeys through regions steeped in history, blending personal narrative with cultural insights. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for Jane Dieulafoy and her husband’s expedition to Persia, motivated by their quest to explore the influences of Sassanian architecture on Islamic art. Dieulafoy recounts the challenges they face in planning their journey, including deciding on travel routes amidst regional conflicts, reflecting the era's geopolitical tensions. She describes their departure from France, the ship journey to Constantinople, and the vivid experience of arriving in an exotic city filled with history and vibrancy. The couple's adventures highlight both the beauty and the difficulties of traversing this historically rich and culturally complex landscape, revealing Dieulafoy’s deep engagement with the sights and peoples they encounter along the way.
