2010
Abstract
The paper focuses on ways, how the Other was performed in the voluminous travelogue Peregrinus in Jerusalem (1729) written by Angelicus Maria Myller, a member of the Order of the Servants of Mary. The author analyses an intertextual basis of this Othering (unsuprisingly it was the Bible that functioned as the main subtext of travellers experience as well as representations of Islamic Orient), she further concentrates on Marian topography and on the apodemical program of Myllers work.
