Book emphasizes cultural aspects of pilgrimage and focuses on the theological doctrines and popular notions which promote Christian pilgrimage, and the symbols and images which embody them. (from DJ blurb)

From the Back Cover:
Image and Pilgrimage examines in detail two anthropological important aspects of the practice of pilgrimage. One is the context-the theological background into which each pilgrimage is 'born' and the folk traditions through which the people recognize the implications of the initiating event. The other is the repertoire of symbols and images that embody that experience and continue to clothe the original vision in varying ways.
Review:
"This book constitutes an important foreshadowing of issues that have become prominent in more recent anthropology." -- "Culture"
