Humboldt appears as a cited authority, his Examen Critique brought to bear on the discussion of Marco Polo. The text offers no personal narrative, relationships, or transformation for him; his role is that of a later scholar whose work helps readers assess the travel account.
Description
The text supplies no physical description of Humboldt, so his appearance cannot be established from this source. No details of his height, build, coloring, hair, eyes, clothing, or distinguishing features are given.
