Panaït Istrati et la typologie du “vagabond”
The “Vagabond” Typology in Panait Istrati’s Books

Summary/Abstract: “Vagabond,” “nomad” or “marginal” are the key terms in almost all studies on Panait Istrati’s literature. This paper aims to overview the multiple and complex meanings of the “vagabond” typology, based on stories like Kir Nicolas, Sotir, Mikhaïl, Bakâr, La Maison Thüringer, Le Bureau de placementor Méditerranée, in which the “vagabond” is the central character. The theoretical framework of our investigation is shaped by concepts like “migrant literature” and “marginality,” but our study also encompasses a strand that implies an imagological analysis.
