> The Book of the Wanderings of Felix Fabri (Circa 1480-1483 A.D.)
> He was German Dominican Friar of the Preaching Order, born in 1441 or 1442, in
Zurich. Died in Ulm, Germany in 1502 where he spent most of his life. Friar
Felix made two pilgrimages to the Holy Land, in 1480 and again in 1483-4. He
wrote two accounts of his travels, one in German (Ulm,1556); the other in Latin.
The former is rather brief; the other is very complete and accurate in its
descriptions of the places he visited. This second journal made Fabri one of the
most distinguished and learned writers of the fifteenth century.

> Based on Pero Tafur: Travels and Adventures, 1435-1439
> Pero Tafur (c.1410-c. 1484), apparently born in Cordoba, Spain, belonged to a
family that considered themselves related to the imperial family in
Constantinople. Tafur, a hidalgo or knight, had joined one of his kinsmen in an
unsuccessful attack of the Moors on Gibraltor in 1435, and he frequently
mentions during his travels that he must return to Spain to help the King fight
against the Moors. He took with him on his travels through Europe and the
Eastern Mediterranean two squires, and he possessed sufficient funds to make the
trip without encountering financial difficulties. According to Tafur his trip
was undertaken to give him experience and make himself known to others. While
not a merchant, he was very interested in commercial affairs and with the
trading networks. He travelled in Egypt, the Holy Land, the Black Sea region and
Constantinople, a city in sad decline; while he thought about traveling on into
"Tartary", he gave up the idea after conversation with the famous
> traveler Nicolo di Conti, whom he met on the the latter's return journey form
South Asia. In Europe he traveled through much of northern Italy, Gemany,
Denmark, Austria, and Hungary.
