Summary: "Religious Pilgrimages in the Mediterranean World examines the evolution of recent theoretical and methodological trends in pilgrimage studies. It outlines key themes of research, including historical, anthropological, sociological, and cultural approaches, to provide a comprehensive and interdisciplinary overview of the subject. Charting pilgrimages from 1500 through to the current day, the volume traces the recent research of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian pilgrimages in the Mediterranean while also exploring avenues for future studies that go beyond the limitations of the past. Chapters also engage with travel literature, tourism, and nationalism in relation to pilgrimage in this cutting-edge volume. Featuring essays from leading scholars in the fields of religious studies, geography, and anthropology, this book is cross-cultural in focus and critical in approach, making it an essential read for all researchers of pilgrimage, religious history, religious tourism, and anthropology"--
