Isabelle Eberhardt (1877-1904) is one of the Nineteenth-Century travelers who arouses more interest in criticism and historiography. His journals creayes a gender reconstruction, often told in the male voice, as she herself wandered through the desert dressed as a man; an intricate and problematic relationship with otherness, in its relations with the natives and with the French colonial power; a complex relationship with the landscape of the Algerian desert, which often serves to elaborate a mystical and martyred character. This article intends to interpret his travel diaries as the Algerian landscape, this African hinterland, and its transvestism, serve to elaborate its gender performativity and its relations with otherness in the colonial and Muslim world.
