This new version of the late fourth-century diary of journeys in
and around the Holy Land known as the Itinerarium Egeriae provides
a more literal translation of the Latin text than earlier English
renderings, with the aim of revealing more of the female
traveller's personality. The substantial introduction to the book
covers both early pilgrimage as a whole, especially travel by
women, and the many liturgical rites of Jerusalem that Egeria
describes. Both this and the verse-by-verse commentary alongside
the translated text draw on the most recent scholarship, making
this essential reading for pilgrims, students, and scholars seeking
insight into life and piety during one of Christianity's most
formative periods.
