This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient pilgrimage path in Spain to the tomb of St James has undergone a contemporary revival. Embracing spirituality in its widest sense, modern day pilgrims come from across the world to experience the tranquility, camaraderie and scenery that help towards self-discovery, personal healing and a thoroughly memorable experience. The first walking guide in the Pilgrim's Guide Series, this comprehensive aid features 1:50 000 topographical mapping from the National Geographic Institute of Spain for each of the 32 'recommended' stages of the Camino Francés, including its variants, the three stages of the Camino Finisterre, and the two routes to Muxia. Each stage map features a start and finish inset, plus several separate town and city maps. In addition, there is a region map showing the entire route, plus plans of the three major cathedrals. Descriptions of the route help the pilgrim to stay on track. Descriptions of the monuments and towns to be seen along the way feature enough depth for the pilgrim to truly sense the history, art and devotion of centuries gone by. Every stage and main city features its own fully up-to-date list of accommodation: from all of the public and private Albergues (pilgrims' hostels) with their facilities, to a selection of hotels to suit all budgets. Helpful topics include the legend of the burial of St James in Spain and its biblical significance, the history of the pilgrimage, why people go, what to expect, how to prepare and pack. There are many color photographs, most being small and just enough to identify a site. This book is the result of exhaustive research carried out over several years, finally bringing this complete guide to publication.

Questions are always temporal, but it seems pilgrimage follows the designs of the eternal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rome was one of the major pilgrim destinations in the middle ages. The belief that certain objects and places were a focus of holiness where pilgrims could come closer to God had a long history in Christian tradition; in the case of Rome, the tradition developed around two of the city's most important martyrs, Christ's apostles Peter and Paul. So strong were the city's associations with these apostles that pilgrimage to Rome was often referred to as pilgrimage t̀o the threshold of the apostles'. Debra Birch conveys a vivid picture of the world of the medieval pilgrim to Rome - the Romipetae, or R̀ome-seekers' - covering all aspects of their journey, and their life in the city itself. --Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wayward Pilgrim is an account of the desultory pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in Spain made by a professor of Spanish on Sabbatical leave from the Salisbury University in Maryland. The professor undertakes the pilgrimage not as a religious experience but as an attempt to better understand the history and culture of Spain. In the book, he combines an account of the Medieval pilgrimage with the diversions often taken by the modem pilgrim. In the end, the professor comes to realize the hardships, the endurance and the hardy and devote spirit of the true pilgrim. In addition to the account of the pilgrimage, the book also contains vignettes of great moments and great historical figures that changed the world forever.
