The main portion of this essay will present representative Latin and vernacular travel narratives and related texts that postdate the Viking Age. It will be divided into sections according to the general direction of the journeys undertaken. In the material surveyed, accounts of travels to the north are typically associated with adventure and the supernatural. Travels to the west are associated with the more mundane, but equally tantalizing, mercantile and administrative activities. Travels to the south finally are associated with pilgrimages and warfare. Accounts of journeys towards the east do not, apart from a fifteenth-century translation from Latin into Danish of the account Sir John Mandeville’s travels, feature prominently in the material from mainland Scandinavia. Scholarship on medieval Scandinavian literature generally differentiates sharply and consistently between Latin and vernacular texts, and among the vernacular texts between those written in East Norse (Danish, Swedish, and Gutnish) and West Norse (Norwegian and Icelandic). In the present contribution, an effort has been made to include texts in Latin as well as East and West Norse.
