Pilgrimage, Politics and Place-Making in Eastern Europe

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the intersection of pilgrimage and politics, this book fills a gap in the anthropology of pilgrimage by examining eastern and south-eastern Europe. It features contributions from regional scholars who analyze how pilgrimage practices influence and are influenced by political borders, highlighting the significance of both sacred and secular place-making in these contexts. Through diverse perspectives, the work sheds light on the cultural and political dimensions of pilgrim places in a historically rich yet underexplored area.
