"Our point of departure shall be the volume in which Jean-Baptiste Labat (1663-1738) devotes to his stay in Spain in Voyages du P. Labat des FF. Prescheurs en Espagne et en Italie (1730a). In this light, our paper shall explore some biographical, sociohistorical and literary clues in order to understand the author’s relationship with Spain as well as the representation of the relationships between Spanish and French communities in his account. With a focus on what unites rather than on what separates both communities, our purpose is to highlight the elements interfering with the apparently stable opposition between «We» and «They» in Labat’s discourse."
