Thomas Nugent

    1. január 1700 – 27. apríl 1772

    Thomas Nugent bol írsky historik a cestovateľ, ktorého dielo je dnes známe predovšetkým vďaka cestopisu z Veľkého turné. Táto cesta bola v 18. storočí obľúbená najmä medzi anglickými šľachtičnami, ktoré podnikali vzdelávacie výpravy po Európe. Nugentove podrobné opisy Francúzska, Talianska, Nemecka a Nizozemska poskytujú historikom bohatý zdroj informácií o situácii v druhej polovici 18. storočia. Jeho erudícia a precíznosť pri zachytávaní dobovej atmosféry robia z jeho prác cenný pohľad do minulosti.
