Abstract
La literatura de viajes ha constituido uno de los géneros literarios más abundantes a lo largo de la historia. Desde la antigüedad hasta nuestros días, ha exis-tido una notable preocupación por dejar constancia de todo aquel lugar visitado, de su cultura, economía, costumbres y tradiciones, historia, etc. En todos ellos ha habido un componente básico, la Información, cuya posesión ha diferenciado a unos países de otros. No en vano, y como en la actualidad, la información es poder, y con tal premisa, y desde el siglo XV, y en especial durante el siglo XVIII, ha existido un interés por recopilar toda la información circulante, como ahora la literatura de viajes, presentándola en forma de Bibliografías y Repertorios.
ABSTRACT: Travel writing has been one of the most prolific of literary genres across history. From antiquity until our day, there has been a visible concern to leave a re-cord of every place visited, of its culture, economy, cultures and traditions, history, etc. In all cases, there has been a basic component, namely Information, the posses-sion of which has differentiated countries from one another. There is no doubt that, just as today, information is power, and on that basis, since the fifteenth century, and in particular during the eighteenth century, one may identify an interest in compiling all the information in circulation -as, in the present case, travel literature- and pre-senting it in the form of Bibliographies and Repertories.
