Abstract
In the early 19th century there were no "archaeologists" as we use
the term today, although antiquarians studied the relics of the past, mainly of the
classical world but occcasionally also Egypt and other distant, exotic lands, and
dilettantes, men of wealth and taste, collected antiquities. Gardner
Wilkinson, the subject of this excellent biography, considered himself neither, but
rather a gentleman traveler and writer. He became interested in Egypt only by accident
Leaving Oxford in 1819 before completing a degree he began a Grand Tour, the
long-standing tradition of travel on the Continent by which an English gentleman
"completed" his education. Wilkinson's tour included Paris, Strasbourg, Geneva, Turin,
and Rome, where he met Sir William Gell, a scholar with whom he struck up an instant
friendship.
