Approaching Pilgrimage Chapter
Approaching Pilgrimage: Methodological Issues Involved in Researching Routes, Sites, and Practices, 2024
This is a pre-print of a chapter in a co-edited volume (with M. Katic) in the Routledge Series on Pilgrimage, Religious Travel and Tourism. The chapter draws on my experience of working at the renowned Marian shrine of Lourdes in France for 32 years and describes the changes taking place in bathing practices during that time as a observer participant/participant observer. This leads to a discussion of how my experience is linked to identity and change and direct and indirect modes of communication. The final section of the chapter discusses my continuing involvement in pilgrimage drawing on my more recent participation in pilgrimage walks organised by the British Pilgrimage Trust and my academic involvement with fellow researchers on pilgrimage in the European region and more globally.
Annals of Tourism Research, 2010
Pilgrimage is one of the oldest and most basic forms of population mobility known to human society, and its political, social, cultural and economic implications have always been, and continue to be, substantial. This study aims to examine key issues, arguments and conceptualizations in the scholarship on pilgrimage in order to better understand how it has changed over the years. The findings indicate a shift to a postmodern approach within the study of pilgrimage, particularly with regard to the increasingly obfuscated boundary between tourism and pilgrimage reflected in the terms secular pilgrimage and religious pilgrimage. Dedifferentiation has penetrated the scholarship in terms of its features and its multidisciplinary treatment by researchers.
Call for Abstracts 11 th Annual International Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage (IRTP) Conference
The aim of the conference is to provide both empirical and personal insights into the changing nature of religion in society and to further the debate for both policy-makers and academics to consider these evolving challenges within the future development of faith tourism and pilgrimage. The main emphasis for acceptance at this event is based on participants presenting papers, which apply to the main themes of the conference.
