Analysing the narration of the translatio of the body of Saint
James from Palestine to Santiago de Compostela and its impact on
the historical and biblical construction of Jacobean pilgrimages,
this book presents an interdisciplinary approach to the two cities
at the centre of the legend: Jerusalem and Compostela. Using a
range of political, anthropological, historical and sociological
approaches, the contributors consider archaeological research into
Palestine in the early centuries and explore the traditions,
iconography, and literary and social impact of the translatio on
the current reality of pilgrimages to Compostela.
