Pilgrimages can be analysed as acts of conflict - such as the
Crusades - or also as platforms for relationship building and
rapprochement between religions. With a set of contributions from
leading experts in the field, this book explores the concept of
pilgrimage in Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Some specific
examples of pilgrimages that helped to strengthen links between
different religions or civilisations are explored, ranging from
Europe to Asia and from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century.
Even though every pilgrimage that is investigated here has helped
to link different worlds, the case studies show that this
relationship rarely led to a better in inter-understanding.
Nowadays, peaceful coexistence seems to be its greatest
achievement.
