dc.description.abstract | The paper seeks to address three objections to pilgrimage
practices – they are tied to superstitious beliefs (except where they are seen as simply an aid to the imagination), imply a crude experiential or emotional understanding of the nature of faith, and rest upon a primitive conception of divine localizability. In responding to these objections, I argue that the religious significance of places is not reducible to their contribution to religious imagination,
experience or understanding. In this sense, relationship to God is not just a matter of thought, but of location. | en_GB |
