Vielleicht etwas "runder", ein schneller und schmutziger Gegenvorschlag:

"New York
June 17, 1914
I'm on my way to Constantinople, where Codirolli’s parchment volume was found at the Hagia Sophia. Maybe thereby I will find more details about this “Nur-ed-Din al Musafir” al-Jawf was writing about in his letter from 1909.

Nur-al-Din is an Arabic name meaning “light of religion”. Al-Musafir means “the traveler”, a convenient name for an explorer. His nationality is not revealed. His manuscript is believed to be written in Persian but it is not known if this was his native language.

The founder of the Islamic Dervish sect was a great poet and preacher named Mevlana. He lived in Konya.

Konya, Ottoman Empire
June 30, 1914
The state library in Constantinople was of very little help, if any, for my research on the crusaders. On a side note, because of myself being a Christian I was not allowed to visit the mosque, which the H. Sophia is now.

Konya was the capital of the Seljuk Turks. From there they opposed the Crusaders moving along the Turkish coast toward Palestine. Thus, it is promising to do further research here.

Right now we unfortunately have far more serious problems to deal with: both the Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife have been shot in Sarajevo and I fear that Europe and the Near East are no longer safe."
