เกี่ยวกับผู้แต่ง

Thomas Gage, a notable 17th-century English author and adventurer, is most recognized for his significant contribution to the travel literature genre, particularly his seminal work, ‘The English-American, His Travail by Sea and Land: or, A New Survey of the West-India’s, ‘ originally published in 1648. Gage, who was incidentally an apostate Catholic priest converting to Protestantism, traversed the New World extensively, providing detailed accounts of the landscapes, peoples, and customs that he encountered, which have been invaluable to historians and anthropologists for understanding the early colonial period of the Americas. His writing is characterized by an ethnographic zeal, tinged with personal narrative and religious critique. Gage’s observations were instrumental in shaping England’s perceptions of the Americas, and his descriptions influenced both colonial ambitions and literary depictions of the ‘New World’ during the period. While his works are not without controversy, particularly due to biases common in his era, his travelogue remains a cornerstone document for scholars studying the interplay of European colonial ventures and indigenous cultures during the 17th century.
