Stanton, Renee Jane. "Pilgrimage and its paratexts." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2016. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/6495/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis analyses the paratexts of Dorothy Richardson’s long modernist novel sequence, \(Pilgrimage\). Peritexts, such as the prefaces to \(Pilgrimage\), and epitexts, such as letters written by Richardson and others about \(Pilgrimage\), are explored alongside other paratextual material such as the front covers of different editions, peritextual blurbs and epitextual reviews. I consider the paratexts of \(Pilgrimage\) to be as worthy of study as the anchoring text itself and seek to explain the recurrence of particular paratextual themes which have served to cast doubt on \(Pilgrimage\)’s status and Richardson’s qualities as a writer. Linguistic markers of tentativeness and reservation circulate in \(Pilgrimage\)’s paratextual space, inscribing a dominant tone that has served, at times, to undermine \(Pilgrimage\) and its author. This thesis, by using a range of interdisciplinary, contextualist approaches from narratology, stylistics and modernist studies, traces the links between \(Pilgrimage\)’s paratexts. In so doing it seeks to explain the prominence and liminality of certain paratexts and analyses the collisions and collusions that have characterised \(Pilgrimage\)’s paratextual space.

Schmoelz, Michael. "Pilgrimage in medieval East Anglia : a regional survey of the shrines and pilgrimages of Norfolk and Suffolk." Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2017. https://ueaeprints.uea.ac.uk/63940/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis seeks to give an overview of the practice and manifestations of pilgrimage in medieval East Anglia. Unlike previous works on this subject it focuses not on a specific time period or a certain shrine, but attempts to give an overview of every shrine and associated locus within Suffolk and Norfolk (and where appropriate also of locations just beyond these boundaries) from the Anglo-Saxon conversion period to the Reformation. Inherent in this aim is a certain degree of editorial severity to fit the bounds of the format. This thesis seeks to amalgamate approaches and sources from a variety of disciplines, chief amongst them ecclesiastical history, archaeology, art history, landscape archaeology and antiquarian history to present a narrative for each shrine as well as to attempt to identify patterns, trends and changes in devotional behaviour across the region. The thesis comprises detailed case studies of the larger shrines across the region as well as an extensive gazetteer of minor locations and secondary focal points for pilgrimage, such as wells and other landscape features.

Fowler-Smith, Penelope Jane Art College of Fine Arts UNSW. "Peacock pilgrimage: an ode to India." Publisher:University of New South Wales. Art, 2008. http://handle.unsw.edu.au/1959.4/41230.
Full textAbstract:
The project entitled PEACOCK PILGRIMAGE comprises two components: the screenplay for a feature film, entitled Peacock Angel, and an exegesis, which explores the underlying influences on the screenplay. Peacock Angel is the story of a young girl, Deva, who grew up in India with a fascination for peacocks, especially the fictional peacock angel. After a time of isolation as a teenager in the West, she returns to India to reconcile with a tragic past and reconnect with her true longings. India is the place that mends her wounded heart. Within the symbolic realms of the screenplay Deva, as the central character, becomes the peacock goddess. Her journey allows us to explore layers within the themes of identity, memory and fantasy. The project holds an East/West theme, of disillusionment with Western material values and appreciation of the depth of Indian culture, of the land where the heart is king. Field research on the peacock, the key motif of the project, has led me on a journey through India that has been full of synchronicity and given me a particularly rich taste of her timeless culture. The exegesis elaborates on aspects of my journey, on the concepts of synchronicity and pilgrimage, and on the motif of peacock highlighting its symbolic and mythical meanings. It also situates Peacock Angel within the field of world cinema, in the category of Western films made in India and the genre of magic realism.

Rawlinson, Alison. "Linguistic style in Dorothy Richardson's Pilgrimage." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2000. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/23163.
Full textAbstract:
Dorothy Richardson's <i>Pilgrimage </i>is increasingly being recognized as a significant work of fiction - historically, thematically and technically. Its subject matter (the life of a woman), the perspective (focalization through a female consciousness), and the frequent direct and free indirect representation of thought, all mean that <i>Pilgrimage</i> is a text often referred to as steam of consciousness writing or feminine writing. However, despite frequent allusions to the form of <i>Pilgrimage</i>, there has so far been no detailed analysis of the language of the text. In this thesis many aspects of linguistic form that have previously gone unconsidered, or been ill-defined or mis-interpreted in criticism of <i>Pilgrimage</i>, are discussed in terms of their functions and effects, in developing an argument about the importance of linguistic form in <i>Pilgrimage</i>. A variety of linguistic approaches demonstrate various ways in which the text of <i>Pilgrimage</i> is innovative and highly complex. This thesis explores in detail, and with extensive reference to the text, three central factors in the language of <i>Pilgrimage</i> - narrative structure, metaphor, and rhythm. Through textual analysis, the thesis demonstrates that the narrative is not simply a stream of the undiluted thoughts of Miriam Henderson, the protagonist, but a highly complex narrated, indirect and direct representation of Miriam's consciousness. The perspective of the narrative fluctuates as the relationship between Miriam and the narrator varies with alternating pronominal representation of Miriam (in the first- second- and third-person) and as Miriam matures and becomes less distanced from the narrator. Meanings are expressed metaphorically as Miriam's perspective cannot be recorded without radical linguistic innovation. Analysis of the processes of metaphor and metonymy reveals how Miriam's perspective is continually present (although there can be other points of view as well).

Locker, M. D. "Landscapes of pilgrimage in Medieval Britain." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2013. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1388786/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis seeks to address the journeying context of pilgrimage within the landscapes of Medieval Britain. Using four case studies, an interdisciplinary methodology developed by the author is applied to a four different geographical and cultural areas of Britain (Norfolk, Wiltshire/Hampshire, Flintshire/Denbighshire and Cornwall), to investigate the practicalities of travel along the Medieval road network including the routes themselves, accommodation, the built environments and natural topographies encountered. An introduction, assessment of current theory and scholarship is provided, followed by an explanation of the methodology used. The four case studies are then presented (Ely to Walsingham, Salisbury to Winchester, St Asaph to Holywell, and Camelford to Bodmin). Within each case study, both the selected starting point for the pilgrimage (typically either a locale confirmed in the historical record as linked to the pilgrim destination, or a settlement of some significance within the local area and thus well connected to the route network), and the site of the saint cult itself are analysed for their growth, reaction and accommodation to the pilgrim phenomenon. Also addressed are the route networks of the county as a whole, relationships to economic centres and their impact on travel possibilities, the topography, the distribution patterns for saint dedications in parish churches within the area, material culture and the ecclesiastical built environment (for example pilgrim badges, monasteries), and the physical landscapes through which the pilgrim travels. Here, the interaction between the pilgrim and the environments through which they move is addressed. Considerations include fatigue, exertion, panoramas and way-finding, route visibility, sight lines to monuments, folklore within the landscape, and the potential echoing of Christian scriptural motifs within certain landscape types/features (e.g. wilderness and sanctuary). Within the final section of the thesis these themes are compared and expanded into the broader context of pilgrimage not only in Medieval Christendom, but within Buddhist, Hindu and Islamic religious traditions, in order to demonstrate the methodology's validity and flexibility in addressing pilgrimage holistically. Comparisons are made between the local and universal pilgrim routes in terms of material culture, landscape interaction and travel practicalities, and suggestions for future research and development of the pilgrim studies field are also provided.

Full textAbstract:
The dotoc is a religious devotion to the Holy Cross in Bicol, Philippines. Women cantors take the role of pilgrims journeying to the Holy Land to visit the Holy Cross or performers reenact as komedya St. Helene’s search and finding of the cross. The practice was introduced by the Spanish colonizers, but I argue that the dotoc appropriates the colonial project of conversion, translating it into strategies of survival, individual agency, communal renewal, and the construction of identity, through the performance of pilgrimage. I grapple with issues of ethnographic authority and representation. The project is a journey back to childhood and to a place called home, to sights, sounds, smells, tastes recollected in the many stories of informants, or experienced on recent visits as a participant in the performances, but it is also already a journey of a stranger. I am an insider studying my own culture from the outside. Using a Badiourian framework combined with de Certeau’s practice of everyday life and Conquergood’s methodology, the thesis explores how fidelity to the enduring event of the dotoc becomes an ethnographic co-performance with active subjects. Theirs is a vernacular belief and practice that cuts off the seeming infinity of the colonial experience in the imagination of the present. The centrality of the actors and their performance is a practice of freedom, but also of hope. The performances are always done for present quotidian ends, offered in an act of faith within a reciprocal economy of exchange. Chapter 1 poses the major questions and my initial answers and thus provides an overview of the journey ahead. Chapter 2 locates the dotoc in the field of cultural performance, problematizes my ‘gaze’ as traveller, as insider-researcher, as ‘indigenous ethnographer’, and sets down my own path of ethnographic coperformance inspired by Dwight Conquergood. Chapter 3 gets down to the details of the ethnography. Chapter 4 is a probing of the postcolonial predicament, which ends with Badiou and a decision to keep to the politics of the situation. Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 take up the dotoc as a practice of fidelity that is integrally woven into the performers’ everyday life and informed by autochthonous concepts of power, gender, and exchange.

Full textAbstract:
Despite growing as a new popular facet of tourism in Japan, Seichi junrei is still niche and largely undocumented, stifling both the experiences of participants as well as the opportunities in the tourism industry. The tourism industry is changing and always trying to improve but lacks a personal touch. According to studies, the tourism industry focuses more on mainstream tourism than it does on niche tourism. Seichi junrei community issues are not being heard by the tourism industry; There are no user-friendly platforms available for the subculture to contribute towards tourism. This text explores the development of tourism and improving the experiences of tourists participating in the phenomena known as seichi junrei. Seichi junrei is explored through ethnography to create bonds. Together as a team of voluntary participants, through participatory design challenges the current problems with tourist experiences and improves them through digital tourism. The thesis creates a community and a platform that solves the user experience problems of seichi junrei. Seichi junrei becomes a guide for new fans where everyone can work as a community and help evolve the tourism phenomena of seichi junrei.

Trajanoska, Ivana. "La Musique dans Pilgrimage de Dorothy Richardson." Thesis, Montpellier 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014MON30066/document.
Full textAbstract:
La musique dans Pilgrimage de Dorothy Richardson joue un rôle important. C'est avant tout un élément crucial dans la quête identitaire de la protagoniste, Miriam Henderson. Récit de la formation d'une artiste, Pilgrimage est aussi celui de la quête d'une identité religieuse, nationale et féminine de la protagoniste. La musique accompagne le récit et offre la possibilité à Miriam de (ré)évaluer sa relation aux différentes religions organisées, de redéfinir son anglicité et de construire une identité féminine authentique. La musique ouvre également la voie à la « joie indépendante », au « centre de son être » où se loge une identité préexistante sur laquelle repose l'identité authentique qu'elle cherche. Par ailleurs, la musique aide Richardson à rompre avec la tradition romanesque du dix-neuvième siècle et à exprimer sa défiance à l'égard du langage et sa capacité à représenter la « réalité ». En intégrant les principes musicaux à la construction du texte narratif, l'auteur met en valeur son désir d'utiliser la musique comme modèle du fonctionnement sémiotique du texte narratif, d'influer sur la façon dont celui-ci fait sens et le communique en réfractant la « réalité » sur un axe à la fois vertical et horizontal et présente ainsi sa conception du temps comme échappant à la division entre passé, présent et futur. En outre, Richardson a recours à la musique pour mieux représenter la conscience, le processus de réflexion et le monde intérieur de sa protagoniste. Enfin, l'accompagnement musical sollicite la coopération de la conscience créatrice du lecteur en s'assurant sa collaboration dans la construction de la « réalité » que le roman tente de représenter<br>Music plays an important role in Pilgrimage by Dorothy Richardson. On the one hand, music is a crucial element in the protagonist's search for identity. Reading Pilgrimage as a story of a quest and the formation of an artist shows that the quest of the protagonist Miriam Henderson is also that of a religious, national and feminine identity accompanied by music. Music provides the protagonist with the opportunity to (re)assess her relationship with various organized religions, redefine her Englishness, and build an authentic female identity. Music also reveals the “independent joy,” at “the center of being,” where a pre-existing identity can be found upon which the authentic identity that Miriam seeks rests. On the other hand, Richardson relies on music to break with the nineteenth-century writing conventions and express her distrust in the capacity of language to render “reality.” Her effort to integrate musical principles in the construction of the narrative emphasizes her desire to use music as a model for the semiotic functioning of the text, to influence how the text makes sense and communicates it refracting “reality” on an axis, both vertical and horizontal, thus presenting her concept of time which is outside the division into past, present and future. Furthermore, Richardson uses music to represent consciousness, the thinking process, and the inner world of the protagonist. Finally, the musical accompaniment generates the cooperation of the reader's creative consciousness securing his collaboration in the construction of the “reality” that the novel is trying to represent

Daruwalla, Pheroza Surti. "Zoroastrianism, Diaspora and Pilgrimage: A Singular View." Thesis, University of Sydney, 2019. https://hdl.handle.net/2123/23638.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the nexus between identity and religion through the lived experience of 3 terms: ‘Zoroastrianism,’ ‘Diaspora’ and ‘Pilgrimage’ (ZDP). All 3 aspects are deeply personal to me as a Zoroastrian, but also have a bearing on the sustainability, understanding and education of new generations of Zoroastrians; a small ethnic and religious community spread throughout the world. This thesis explores issues around the diaspora of Zoroastrians as well as the sense of re-connection and understanding of the faith emanating from pilgrimage. The Zoroastrian religion does not have any formal pilgrimage tradition, but there is a strong desire among diasporic peoples to seek meaning and affirmation through a journey to ‘homelands’. Pilgrimage, for Zoroastrians, takes place mainly in Iran, the original home of Zoroastrianism, and in India (specifically locations such as Mumbai, Navsari, Udvada, Surat and Sanjan, the latter 4 all being early settlements and home to significant fire temples and monuments). My explorations primarily focus on religious aspects and re-connections with the Zoroastrian faith. Other imperatives to research emerge from a desire to describe the experiences of diasporic Zoroastrians undertaking pilgrimage and travel in India and Iran. Further, understandings of issues of identity and distinctiveness are explored, linked to the continuance of the faith and the ethnicity of Zoroastrians. The research for this thesis is based on qualitative methodologies involving auto-ethnography, participatory action research techniques (Filipovic 2015a; Filipovic 2015b), review and analysis of secondary literature sources, narratives of experiencing pilgrimage, and attendance and management of Zoroastrian-specific and community functions. These conceptual frameworks and models are used as a base for interpretation and analysis of the data gleaned from travel, tourism and religious studies discipline areas. Conceptual constructs used to frame this study include Jafar Jafari’s ‘tourist model’ (1987), Richard Butler’s Tourism Area Life Cycle (1980), Norman’s discourse on ‘spiritual tourism’ (2011; 2013), Kurt Lewin’s (1947) theory of change and Shernaz Cama’s (2016) work on the Everlasting Flame (EF) International Programme and Zoroastrianism in the New Millennium (ZINTM). The use of secondary literature applying perspectives of emic versus etic or insider versus outsider viewpoints and critiques (Headland, Pike and Harris 1990) are the lens framing through which the findings of this thesis are presented. The American anthropologist and linguist Kenneth Pike coined the terms ‘emic’ and ‘etic’ (derived from Greek phonemic and phonetic) to analyse linguistic units, but increasingly they are used in the social sciences to represent viewpoints from a local (subjective) versus a global (objective) viewpoint (Headland, 1990). The auto-ethnographic data presented in this thesis comes as the result of Participatory Action Research (PAR) conducted during my 3-week pilgrimage to Iran, undertaken through an organised group tour: ‘The Complete Iran Experience with Silloo Mehta’. Data from this research study is presented in the form of a journalistic narrative employing photographs of my journey. This research is subjective, and given the personal nature of the experiences, observations and narratives, it would be inappropriate to consider these insights as generalisations to be applied to other religious or diasporic contexts. However, they shed much light on the complexities of diasporic Zoroastrianism and the implications of pilgrimage in this context. Outcomes for the thesis include a deeper understanding of the nexus between Zoroastrianism, Diaspora and Pilgrimage. Additionally, it is hoped that this study will fill a gap in knowledge and literature by becoming a pilot that may be referred to by others of the diaspora who seek to enhance their identity as Zoroastrians most notably the younger, second generation of Australian Zoroastrians. It is also hoped that the findings will allow for tour planners to give consideration to product development that people are seeking and thus give rise to a new niche market for Zoroastrian tourism and pilgrimage which is in nascent stages at the current time.

Starks, Erica Holmes. "Honoring ancestors through pilgrimage and creative writing." Thesis, Institute of Transpersonal Psychology, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1599165.
Full textAbstract:
<p> Ancestor reverence, in this study, is considered to consist of reflecting on and honoring the women and men who came before us in our bloodlines, including those friends and chosen family who were part of our intellectual or spiritual lineages. Many traditions include beliefs that our consciousness continues after death, and some traditions hold that ancestors may influence the events of the living or intercede with the gods on the living's behalf. In many traditions ancestors are honored through altar building, rituals, and trance journeys. Rituals performed for the ancestors create strong familial and community bonds. This thesis work is important because it expanded the opportunities for me to understand my family dynamics and to develop relationships with my deceased foremothers and forefathers. I learned about myself in understanding my families' past and felt stronger connections to my lineage and progeny. The literature revealed that genealogy research is a form of ancestor reverence; especially in Western cultures that no longer have formalized ancestor reverence rituals and practices. Through genealogy research, I learned the names and stories of my ancestors and ancestresses and, in combination with that research, on a pilgrimage to my ancestral homeland, I explored my matriline using an archaeomythological and feminist lens that combined archaeology, anthropology, mythology, folklore, genetics, ecology, and history to search for the evidence of what women did throughout herstory. I gathered the stories focused on how women worked, lived and contributed to society throughout history, because the stories of my ancestresses, like the accomplishments of most women from 1500-1900, were often omitted from written history. A sacred journey can catapult the participant into greater and faster spiritual growth; this was true for me in that I may not have gained this wisdom otherwise. In this paper I explored the idea that ancestors were revered through multiple methods, including pilgrimage and creative writing. While altar building, rituals, trance journeys, and genealogy were most often recorded in written form in regards to ancestor reverence, they are not the only methods that can provide experience and impact to the descendant who honors their ancestors. I have tried to prove this assertion through academic research: I used a heuristic approach to carefully examine my personal experiences with each of these forms of ancestor reverence and an arts-based approach through creative writing to pen short works about my ancestors.</p>

Full textAbstract:
This thesis establishes the presence of pilgrimage in Canadian literature as reflective of Canadian cultural and global changes. It shows the enduring archetypal characteristics of pilgrimage from the earliest pre-Confederation travel writing to contemporary and postmodern novels. The topic of Canadian literary pilgrimage allows for an eclectic and necessarily multi-disciplinary approach and also for the study of the earliest Canadian letters and contemporary novelists, as well as for a breadth of forms, including journals, letters, archival sermons, dramatic works, poetry, and contemporary Canadian novels.
Chapter one begins with the cultural figure of Brebeuf as pilgrim first in The Jesuit Relations (1632-1673), proceeds to E. J. Pratt's long-poem Brebeuf and his Brethren (1940), on-site research at the memorial to Brebeuf in Midland, Ontario, and concludes with the post-colonial revisiting of this figure in James W. Nichol's dramatic work, Saint-Marie Among the Hurons (1980), and in Brian Moore's Black Robe (1985). Chapter two turns to Oliver Goldsmith's The Rising Village and explores Protestant pilgrimage, marking the material and spiritual progress of that pilgrimage. The thesis then looks at Goldsmith's work in conjunction with the influential sermons and journals of Bishop John Inglis of Nova Scotia. Chapter three follows pilgrimage into more contemporary works in Robertson Davies' Fifth Business and Jane Urquhart's The Stone Carvers, incorporating post-structuralist discussions of the nomad as pilgrim or anti-pilgrim figure and the implications of homelessness to the pilgrimage paradigm. Chapters four and five analyze Richard B. Wright's The Age of Longing and Clara Callan, and Timothy Findley's The Butterfly Plague and Headhunter, which are explored in light of some of Jacques Derrida's writing and the critical utopian studies of Ernst Bloch.

Pritchett, Elizabeth Reed Jackson. "Vital texts : democratic intertextuality in Dorothy Richardson's 'Pilgrimage'." Thesis, Keele University, 2017. http://eprints.keele.ac.uk/3868/.
Full textAbstract:
'Pilgrimage' (1915-1938/67), Dorothy Richardson’s long modernist novel of female consciousness, has a history of mischaracterisation. The first novel to be termed stream of consciousness, Pilgrimage offers an account of New Woman, Miriam Henderson, as she comes of age in fin-de-siècle Britain and becomes a writer in the first decades of the twentieth century. Adhering strictly to Miriam’s consciousness, Pilgrimage is often read as a byword for high modernist style: hermetic, elitist, and anti-democratic. By examining the power relations behind Pilgrimage’s other key formal system of representation, not stream of consciousness but intertextuality, this thesis offers a new understanding of Pilgrimage as a vital text of democratic modernism. Dialogic, diffuse, and dissensual, Pilgrimage’s intertextuality provides a counter-balance to the novel’s stream of consciousness, revealing the diverse and polyphonic voices of which Miriam’s subjectivity is composed. By staging its intertexts in relation to the perceiving subject, Pilgrimage constructs a space of democratic intertextuality: a space between texts where hierarchical distinctions between text and intertext, author and reader, self and other break down. This in turn points to the need for other equally open spaces of representation to emerge for women, not just in the artistic sphere but also in the socio-political arena. Using four case studies – Pilgrimage’s recourse to the personal letter, Charlotte Brontë’s Villette, Richardson’s nonfiction for The Crank and The Saturday Review, and Beethoven’s Sonata Pathétique – this study examines how the intertextual replaces distinctions between ‘high’ and ‘low’ art with an understanding of art as a node of intersubjective connection and play. Moreover, by dramatising the acts of reading and interpretation, Pilgrimage reframes textual ‘value’ in contingent terms that invite readers to apply the same principles to itself. As such, Richardson’s novel of the single female consciousness opens itself up to the processes of democratic contestation, debate, and reform.

Full textAbstract:
Peripatetic by nature yet polymorphous in form, the topic of fan pilgrimage expresses a significant dearth in cult film and media scholarship. Whilst the concept of pilgrimage has been classically linked to religious duty and moral obligation, its ability to straddle both traditionalist and secularist rationales amidst increased globalisation makes such ambiguous mobility ripe for closer analysis. In this thesis, I will theorise fan pilgrimage using a series of itinerant fan taxonomies to recontextualise the role of the pilgrim and its function within select fan groups. Utilising the critical literature of Zygmunt Bauman, Victor Turner, and Roger C. Aden, respectively, Chapter 1 reevaluates ideas of community and reconfigures the spatiotemporal theories of performance articulated by Richard Schechner through fan pilgrimage and performative communitas. Chapter 2 explores how theories of play and everyday life create my first fan taxonomy: the ludic pilgrim. Via the play theory of Johan Huizinga and Roger Caillois as well as the theories of everyday life held by Erving Goffman, I argue for a correlation between play and costume through the case study of the otaku – i.e. fans of Japanese anime and manga. Chapter 3 employs fashion theory to subcultural style and reconsiders the value of the goth subculture and female vampire fandom by way of my second fan taxonomy: the subsartorial pilgrim. In Chapter 4, The Rocky Horror Picture Show serves as my main case study to theorise subcultural liveness during screenings of Rocky Horror and highlight my third fan taxonomy: the performative pilgrim. Examining the pilgrim as tourist through concepts such as fan tourism and flâneurism and by way of case studies such as Blade Runner, Disney theme parks, and The Lord of the Rings blockbuster trilogy, Chapter 5 unpacks my fourth fan taxonomy: the postmodern pilgrim. Finally, Chapter 6 recasts The Big Lebowski as a cult film that is primarily consumed by fans via Lebowski Fest. This chapter will elucidate how narrative, replay culture, and the documentary film The Achievers: The Story of the Lebowski Fans all reshape the meaning of Lebowski and spotlight its classification as an itinerantextual cult film.

David, Jacqueline. "A spiritual pilgrimage : a biographical study of R.J. Campbell." Thesis, Durham University, 1991. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/6254/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis is a biography and study of the spiritual pilgrimage of R.J. Campbell (1867-1956). It details Campbell's life, considers the extent to which he was affected by the events of his time, and critically assesses his thought and influence. Chapter One outlines Campbell's formative years and shows the impact of Ulster Presbyterianism and family life upon him. The years 1867-80 are shown to be vital for an understanding of his adulthood and especially his religious leanings. The chapter ends with an account of his conversion to Congregationalism. The next chapter discusses Campbell's successful Brighton ministry. It deals with his emergence as a popular nationwide figure and traces the development of his theology. Chapter Three is concerned with Campbell's City Temple pastorate, the most controversial period of his life, both theologically and politically. A large section is devoted to the New Theology movement and Campbell's gradual disassociation from it. The chapter closes with an analytical account of his transition into Anglicanism. The fourth chapter deals with Campbell's Anglican years. It discusses the extent to which his theology actually changed, and the impact of his ministry. An important part of the thesis is the detailed bibliography. No bibliography of his work has been available up until now. Appendix A contains a selection of Campbell’s unpublished letters and Appendix B is a copy of the article which fostered the New Theology controversy.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis concerns pilgrimages undertaken by members of both Christian and Hindu communities in Central Kerala, especially in the Emakulam area. "Community pilgrimages" undertaken by Syrian Orthodox ("Jacobite") Christians are discussed in detail. These are shown to be occasions for expressing the identity and interests of Jacobites in the context of a long-running dispute which has divided Orthodox Christians in Kerala. For Jacobites, pilgrimage makes a statement about loyalty to their Patriarch and about rights of access to disputed sites. These occasions are distinguished from other pilgrimages, especially one to a famous Catholic site, which maintain broad, cross-community appeal. Parallel examples of Hindu pilgrimages of both types are described. In addition, the thesis emphasises the value of attending to experiential aspects of the pilgrimage journey. Descriptions of the pilgrimages, together with comments on the general character of experience for participants, are supplemented by personal accounts provided by individual pilgrims. A phenomenological approach is taken in order to understand the themes which emerge, in particular processes of learning and change undergone by participants.

Cette thèse se concentre sur l'intersection entre le commercial et le spirituel pour comprendre comment les expériences spirituelles sont vécues par les consommateurs. Nous sommes alignés sur le domaine récemment constitué de la 'spiritualité du consommateur' (Husemann & Eckhardt, 2019a, p. 393) qui considère les « pratiques et processus engagés lors de la consommation d'offres de marché (produits, services, lieux) qui produisent une utilité spirituelle ». À travers une approche ethnographique interprétative dans quatre lieux de pèlerinage catholiques en Amérique latine et en Europe, cette recherche révèle les modèles et les différences de la consommation spirituelle entre et à travers chaque cas étudié. Les résultats mettent en évidence 12 thèmes émergés de l'analyse qui sont liés aux tensions et aux accords entre le spirituel et le commercial, l'expérience collective et individualisée des pèlerins, la consommation du spirituel en tant que stratégie d'adaptation traitent des problèmes mondains, la consommation corporelle et matérielle du pèlerinage, ainsi que les problèmes liés à l'accessibilité, à la durabilité et à la surconsommation dans les lieux de pèlerinage. Cette recherche doctorale contribue donc à la littérature sur la marchandisation du sacré, les mécanismes d'adaptation, embodiment, la matérialité et d'autres enjeux sociétaux<br>This dissertation is concentrated in the intersection between the commercial and the spiritual to understand how spiritual experiences are lived by consumers. We are aligned with the recently constituted field of Consumer Spirituality (Husemann & Eckhardt, 2019a, p. 393) that considers the "practices and processes engaged in when consuming market offerings (products, services, places) that yield 'spiritual utility'". Through an interpretive ethnographic approach in four Catholic pilgrimage sites in Latin America and Europe, this research reveals the patterns and differences of the spiritual consumption between and across each case studied. The findings highlight 12 themes emerged from the analysis that are related to the tensions andagreements between the spiritual and the commercial, the collective and individualized experience of pilgrims, the consumption of the spiritual as coping strategy do deal with mundane problems, the embodied and material consumption of the pilgrimage, and also issues related to accessibility,sustainability and over consumption in pilgrimage settings. This doctoral research therefore contributes to the literature on the marketization of the sacred, coping mechanisms, embodiment, materiality and other societal issues

Full textAbstract:
The early Christian cults of saints and relics as well as the act and process of pilgrimage were central themes in the religious practice of the Middle Ages. The veneration of saints and relics, the belief in miracles, and the act of pilgrimage were aspects of Christianity rapidly adopted by the converted population of the North Atlantic. This thesis focuses on St Magnus, Earl of Orkney († c. 1116), the cult and pilgrimage process which emerged about a century after the conversion of the Northern Isles. The physical monuments and primary sources, are seen as defining the cult, the pilgrimage process, as well as outlining a trace of the route. St Magnus cult and pilgrimage are also discussed within a comparative context; of the Norse cultural sphere, and of the medieval Universal Church.

Mylod, Elizabeth Jane. "Latin Christian pilgrimage in the Holy Land, 1187-1291." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2013. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/5880/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis discusses the practice and sites of Latin Christian pilgrimage in the Holy Land during the period between the capture of Jerusalem by Saladin, sultan of Egypt and Damascus, in 1187, and the end of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1291 following the capture of Acre by al-Ashraf Khalīl, the Mamlūk sultan. It demonstrates how pilgrimage of this period changed from pre-1187 practices, and discusses how pilgrimage developed from 1187 to 1291 under the influence of a continued Frankish political presence in the Holy Land which did not extend to control over most of the holy sites. It investigates this through an analysis of both the texts written by and for pilgrims at this time, and a variety of other documentary and chronicle source material. It concludes that Holy Land pilgrimage had a different character to that practised during the period 1099 to 1187 due to: 1) changing access to holy sites as a result of raiding and treaties, in some cases causing complete breaks with earlier tradition; 2) Islamic political control of holy sites; and 3) interaction with non-Latin Christians. Many of the unique aspects of Holy Land pilgrimage, with its dearth of healing shrines and indulgences, focus on the New Testament and the life of Christ, and large number of holy associations in a small area, remained unchanged, but the details of where pilgrims went and the balance of site-types visited was modified. Pilgrims visited a broader range of sites, most of which were shared with Greek and Eastern Christians, and some of which were shared with non-Christians. The geography of several sites changed, and they began to be identified with other locations. New holy sites were visited for the first time, while the area within the walls of Jerusalem was harder to visit than ever. Overall, the thesis demonstrates that Latin Christian holy sites and pilgrimage traditions in the Holy Land were not static, and continued to develop and change into the fourteenth century.

Greenhalgh, Matthew Carey. "The Pilgrimage to Meaning Along the Camino de Santiago." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2016. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/5994.
Full textAbstract:
As Christianity spread throughout the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages, many believers attributed miraculous tales to the Virgin Mary and saints. In Camino de Santiago folklore, the Virgin Mary and Saint James intercede on behalf of pilgrims who cannot resolve a crisis without divine assistance. The Codex Calixtinus, a twelfth-century manuscript, contains such a story that occurs in Toulouse called "The Hanged Pilgrim." In this miracle, an innkeeper frames a pilgrim for theft and the local magistrate sentences the accused to hang as a consequence. However, the Virgin Mary and Saint James spare the pilgrim's life because of his devotion and the magistrate orders the pilgrim's release. Over centuries, pilgrims alter the original story as they retell it on the Camino trail. I argue that not only does this miracle of intercession change geographic location from France to the Iberian Peninsula, but that it also transforms from the Virgin Mary and Saint James saving an innocent pilgrim to female victims interceding on behalf of their betrayer and rapist. This analysis traces the displacement of "The Hanged Pilgrim" from a miracle in folklore and poetry to secular metaphoric reconciliation in a Spanish Golden Age play.

Full textAbstract:
This research evaluates the textual and archaeological evidence for pilgrimage in the Iron I central hill country of the southern Levant during the Late Bronze Age-Iron I transition period (ca. 1300-1000 BCE). The central hill country comprises the Judean and Samarian hills that are located west of the Jordan River and rise near Hebron to the south and end in the north near Dothan. This location and time period reflect the nascent stages of Israelite identity. Pilgrimage provides new perspectives through which to evaluate a specific aspect of early Israelite religion and culture. This research demonstrates that pilgrimage to ceremonial sites, where processions and ritual performances were held, provided avenues for families and clans to come together for a collective purpose and to fulfill collective needs. Pilgrimage has many facets that transect social, economic, and political agendas. By looking at the entire network of sites availed in the archaeological and textual record that apply to the Iron I central hills, from household shrines to shrines of regional and cross-clan appeal, this research suggests that there were several scales of pilgrimage evident in the central highlands. Each scale of pilgrimage had different sociological implications, but primarily pilgrimage provided avenues for people to exchange goods and services without losing honor, negotiate status, and bond over a collective awareness of kinship and community that provided avenues for disparate tribes to coalesce into a coherent political body.

McIntyre, Ruth Anne. "Memory, Place, and Desire in Late Medieval British Pilgrimage Narratives." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2008. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/english_diss/31.
Full textAbstract:
In this study, I read late medieval vernacular texts of Mandeville’s Travels, Chaucer’s Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale, and Margery Kempe’s Book in terms of memory, place and authorial identity. I show how each author constructs ethos and alters narrative form by using memory and place. I argue that the discourses of memory and place are essential to authorial identity and anchor their eccentric texts to traditional modes of composition and orthodoxy. In Chapter one, I argue that memory and place are essential tools in creating authorial ethos for the Wife of Bath, Margery Kempe, and John Mandeville. These writers use memory and place to anchor their eccentric texts in traditional modes of composition and orthodoxy. Chapter two reads Mandeville’s treatment of holy places as he constructs authority by using rhetorical appeals to authority via salvation history and memory. His narrative draws on multiple media, multiple texts, memoria, and collective memory. Chapter three examines the rhetorical strategy of the Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale as directly linked to practices of memoria, especially in her cataloguing of ancient and medieval authorities and scripture. Chaucer’s Wife legitimates her travel and experience through citing and quoting from medieval common-place texts and ultimately makes a common-place text of her own personal experience. Chapter four argues that memory is the central structuring strategy and the foundation for Margery’s arguments for spiritual authority and legitimacy in The Book of Margery Kempe. I read the Book’s structure as a strategic dramatization of Margery’s authority framed by institutional spaces of the Church and by civic spaces of the medieval town. Chapter five considers the implications of reading the intersections of memory and place in late-medieval construction of authority for vernacular writers as contributing to a better understanding of medieval authorial identity and a clearer appreciation of structure, form, and the transformation of the pilgrimage motif into the travel narrative genre. This project helps strengthen ties between the fields of medieval literature, women’s writing and rhetoric(s), and Genre Studies as it charts the interface between discourse, narrative form, and medieval conceptions of memory and authorial identity.
