"Pilgrim and preacher" seeks to understand the numerous pilgrimage writings of the Dominican Felix Fabri (1437/8-1502), not only as rich descriptions of the Holy Land, Egypt, and Palestine, but also as sources for the religious attitudes and social assumptions that went into their creation. Fabri, an observant reformer and talented preacher, as well as a two-time Holy Land pilgrim, adapted his pilgrimage experiences for four different audiences. He produced the rhymed Swabian-German "Pilgerbuchlein" for those who sponsored his first voyage; the encyclopaedic Latin "Evagatorium" for his Dominican brethren ; the vernacular "Pilgerbuch" for the noble patrons of his second voyage and their households ; and finally, the vernacular "Sionpilger" - an "imagined" or "virtual" pilgrimage - for the nuns in his care, who were unable to make the real journey themselves. This study asks fundamental questions about the readership for such works, and then builds upon an analysis of Fabri's audiences to reassess the nature of piety, and the place both pilgrimage literature and Observant reform had in it, in late-medieval Germany. "Pilgrim and preacher" is a study of reception, yet one that departs from traditional approaches to pilgrimage literature, which see pilgrimage writing merely as a body of texts to be classified according to genre or mined for colourful details about the Jerusalem journey. This work combines the insights of both literary theory and historical studies with an original, empirical contribution based on an analysis of the manuscripts and printed history of Fabri's writings, setting them in their historical and cultural contexts. Such an analysis allows us to understand better the working of the religious imagination amongst urban elites and women religious in the late middle ages. In its focus on the far-reaching pilgrimage writings of an Observant Dominican Observance movement and the wider currents that flowed between it and the civic and religious feelings of the age.

In het jaar 381 ging een aanzienlijke Romeinse vrouw, Egeria, vanuit West-Europa op reis naar Palestina, Egypte en Syrië. Zij wilde met eigen ogen alle plaatsen zien die zij kende uit de bijbel. Het verslag dat zij van haar pelgrimage schreef, is een van de vroegste in zijn soort. Hieraan voegde zij een beschrijving toe van de liturgische vieringen in Jeruzalem, waar zij langere tijd verbleef. Via de ogen van een vrouw krijgt de lezer een uniek beeld van de bijbelse wereld in de vierde eeuw. Ook het bijzondere Latijn, dat dicht bij de gesproken taal van de vierde eeuw staat, maakt de tekst tot een boeiend document. Egeria's verslag, uitgegeven met een vertaling in modern Nederlands, wordt zoveel mogelijk gepresenteerd als reisdagboek: met dateringen en samenvattingen van niet beschreven onderdelen van de reis. De inleiding schetst een beeld van de historische achtergronden van Egeria.
