"While reading this work, I had an experience that I often have in reading something that is both original and convincing. I kept thinking what Frank was saying was obvious--but I also know that no one has said these things before. Readers will welcome this genuinely fresh approach."--David Brakke, author of "Athanasius and Asceticism" "A wondrous, adventurous exploration of the pilgrim's activity in Late Antiquity. Focusing on subjective experience rather than objective locations, Georgia Frank presents the literary, cultural and sensory (especially visual) dimensions of pilgrimage with startling freshness and singular insight. In the process we learn to think differently about the encounters of pilgrimage. More than this, we learn to reassess the nature of bodily experience in the ancient understanding. A rich and riveting contribution."--Susan Ashbrook Harvey, coeditor of "Holy Women of the Syrian Orient"
