1256‐1327 Syrian geographer. Born in Damascus. Known as the author of "Wonders of the Earth and the Sea," which combines cosmology and geography similar to Qazwini's "Wonders of Creation." This work includes everything from the entire universe to the natural history and geography of the Earth, and many similar works have been written since the 12th century. Dimashqi's writings are somewhat uncritical in their citations, but they contain information that cannot be found anywhere else.

1256‐1327 シリアの地理学者。ダマスクスの出身。カズウィーニーの《被造物のふしぎ》に似た宇宙論と地理学を結びつけたような《陸と海のふしぎ》の著者として知られる。これは宇宙全体から,この地球の博物誌や地理までを含んだもので,12世紀以来同種のものが多く書かれている。ディマシュキーの記述は,他からの引用にあたってはいくぶん無批判的ではあるが,他では見いだせない情報も含まれている。【湯川 武】 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
