Die Engländer hielten sich nur wenige Tage in der Stadt auf. Durch Empfehlungsbriefe an Professoren der Universität und an den Kurfürsten hatten sie einen privilegierten Zugang zu vielen Informationen. Kurfürst Karl Ludwig, ein Sohn der Elisabeth Stuart, und somit Neffe des englischen Königs Karl I., hatte sich in den Jahren des Exils lange in England aufgehalten. Er sprach Englisch und empfing die Besucher auf die Schloss, wo er ihnen auch seine Sammlungen zeigte. Philip Skippon nutzte als aufmerksamer Beobachter die kurze Zeit und hinterließ eine lebendige Schilderung der Stadt, des kurfürstlichen Schlosses und der Universität. abstract_translated_text: In the Summer of 1663 a small group of travellers led by the botanist John Ray reached Heidelberg. These Englishmen stayed only a few days in the city. But through their letters of introduction to the professors of the local university and to the Elector Palatine they gained a special access to much information. The Prince Karl Ludwig, a son of Elisabeth Stuart, and thereby the nephew of the English king, Charles I, had spent much time in England during the period of his exile. He spoke English and received the English visitors in his castle, where he showed them his collections. As an attentive observer, Philip Skippon used his brief time in Heidelberg well, and he left us a vivid description of the city of Heidelberg, and of its princely castle and university. abstract_translated_lang: eng date: 2009 date_type: published id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/artdok.00001351 portal_cluster_id: p-fontes portal_order: 56 schriftenreihe_cluster_id: sr-88 schriftenreihe_order: 56 ppn_swb: 1650662955 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-artdok-13518 language: mul bibsort: SKIPPONPHIPHILIPSKIP2009 full_text_status: public editors_name: Bähr, Ingeborg themen: T11 oa_type: gold laender: LDe laender: LIt title_lat: Philip Skippons Bericht uber einen Aufenthalt in Heidelberg im Sommer 1663 in: Philip Skippon: An Account of a journey made thro' part of the Low Countries, Germany, Italy and France, in: A collection of voyages and travels: some now first printed from original manuscripts, other now first published in English in six volumes [...], printed by assignement from Mssrs.
