Travelogues are a highly important source for historical research. They provide information about regions, cultures and religions but also enable insights into the authors’ cultural self-conceptions. However, the backgrounds of travelers, the aim of their journeys as well as the intended audiences vary considerably. This makes the source rather difficult to engage with and therefore single texts dominated the scientific interest so far. This project approaches this problem by introducing novel digital techniques. Austrian and German researchers from History, Computer Science and Book History collaborate together to analyze a digitized collection of several thousand travelogues, covering the period from 1500 until 1875. We specifically focus on how otherness was expressed in travelogues about the Orient and how it changed over time. This is not a purely historical issue. Every one of us is constantly confronted with otherness due to processes such as global mass tourism, the internationalization of consumer culture, transnational migration and globalization. By critically engaging with the historic dimension of otherness within travelogues, it is possible to raise more awareness and it will help to generate historic contextual knowledge and orientation for the present and future.

游记是历史研究的重要资料。它们提供了关于区域、文化和宗教的信息，但也使人们能够深入了解作者的文化自我概念。然而，旅行者的背景，他们旅行的目的以及预期的受众差异很大。这使得来源相当难以参与，因此单一的文本主导了科学的兴趣。该项目通过引入新的数字技术来解决这个问题。来自历史、计算机科学和图书史的奥地利和德国研究人员共同合作，分析了从1500年到1875年的数千篇游记的数字化收藏。我们特别关注他者性是如何在关于东方的游记中表达的，以及它是如何随着时间的推移而变化的。这不是一个纯粹的历史问题。由于全球大众旅游、消费文化的国际化、跨国移徙和全球化等进程，我们每个人都不断面临着差异性。通过批判性地参与游记中他者的历史维度，可以提高更多的意识，这将有助于产生历史背景知识和现在和未来的方向。
