Introduction





OlliPilgrimage is a blog for participants in the Spring 2009 course on Pilgrimage at OLLI at George Mason University. On this blog I plan to post materials relevant to the course including session outlines, suggested readings, and where copyrights allow photographs, maps and other graphics used to illustrate lectures. If you are a course participant, you are invited to submit questions, comments, and links to materials you feel might be interesting for me or for other participants in the course.

In a few days I plan to post the outline for the first session scheduled at Tallwood on Thursday, 27 March.

Taken in 1984, the photograph shows the arch of the main door to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela in Spain. On the far left is a depiction of St. James the Major (Santiago in Castellano) dressed as a pilgrim to his shrine in the cathedral. (Photograph Copyright E. O. Pederson)
