Abstract: The Voyage en Orient is a geographical, initiatory, and philosophical journey. From Paris to Cythera, passing through Vienna; from Egypt to Lebanon and Constantinople, the narrator immerses himself in a complex Oriental world, far from a West he had to flee in his tireless search for Woman.
