The Pilgrimonics of Camino
This article examines the economic entanglements of the Camino de Santiago, a network of nominally Catholic walking pilgrimages that start in various parts of Europe and end in the Galician city of Santiago de Compostela, which is home to the shrine of St. James the Great. It focuses on the Camino Francés, which starts in the French Pyrenees and tracks across northern Spain to Santiago. The article explores the paradoxes inherent in the Camino, w…

Who Is Interested in Developing the Way of Saint James? The Pilgrimage from Faith to Tourism
The Way of St. James in Spain is the main European pilgrimage route. Currently, it is a cultural, tourist, monumental, spiritual, and sports route. For this reason, the paper aims to discuss the concept of the "Polysemy of The Way", by analysing how the new pilgrims' motivations are creating an inclusive and complex space, which is making a shift from religious space to a multifaceted tourism reality. We study the characterisation and interaction…
Liminality Wanted. Liminal landscapes and literary spaces
The term limen was introduced to anthropological studies following Van Gennep's theories (1960) about liminality. Among them, Victor and Edith Turner (1978) defined pilgrimage as a liminal experience, as it implies being between two existential levels that, through rituality, favours reflection. In this sense, the case of The Way of St. James (Spain) is an interesting field or research as it is loaded with contemporary meanings. Its landscapes as…

The voices of female pilgrims in medieval wills. The Jacobean devotion in Apulia (Italy)
The main topic of this study is to contribute to the study of female sacred mobility in the Middle Ages by proposing a new approach for the analysis of historical sources (wills and bequests), combining quantitative and qualitative methodology. We have set three aims: (1) Reinforcing the female presence within historical documents through their empirical analysis; (2) Reflecting upon female participation in the public sphere; (3) Investigating wo…
From Sacred Place to Monumental Space
Human intervention and social practices have been pivotal for the creation of sacred spaces; indeed, the mobility of human beings has endowed spaces with meaning through religious cultural products. Progressive human intervention in holy places has turned them into monumental spaces, where cultural heritage has become a symbol of identity and the space has assumed the values of the culture that produced it. In this paper, we investigate the value…
