Abstract
The correspondences of Dr Richard Pococke and his cousin Jeremiah
Milles, tracing in detail their eighteenth century travels through Europe and
the Orient, have been previously overlooked in historiographical terms.
Rachel Finnegan’s article brings these letters to life, charting the personal
and professional lives of these two clergymen, revealing the disparate range
of subjects dealt with in their correspondences and thereby highlighting the
potential value of these documents as historical sources.
