There are only a few literary studies on the monumental Evagatorium written by the Dominican Felix Fabri (circa 1440-1502), who travelled to the East on two occasions. Now the Evagatorium cannot just be reduced to a collection of data ; it is also a piece written with particular care. The work has three objectives : to instruct the reader by faithfully describing the places visited, holy places in particular, but also to entertain him and to make him imagine the experience of the wanderings of the grand journey with all its dangers and exoticism. Felix Fabri was aware of the heterogeneous quality of his book, which is an account “neither of a journey, nor of a pilgrimage, nor of an expedition”, and this explains the choice of the neologism “evagatorium” to describe it. This article would therefore like to demonstrate that this “evagatory” was conceived not only to reflect the autho ’s own “wanderings” of body and spirit, but also to lead the reader into wandering.Cairn free access
