In collaboration with the government of Galicia, the Institute of Fine Arts is helping to inaugurate yearlong activities for “Xacobeo 2021,” the Jacobean holy year. Papers for “Imagining Pilgrimage to Santiago: Itineraries, Narratives, Myths” will address the confrontation of real and imagined pilgrimage — visionary and eschatological implications of spiritual travel, spatial and material agency, phenomenological and sensorial markers, landscape and cartographic geographies of pilgrimage, among others. Speakers include: Kathryn Brush, Thomas Deswarte, James D’Emilio, Elvira Fidalgo, Elina Gertsman, Melanie Hanan, Patrick Henriet, Dominique Iogna-Prat, F. López Alsina, Wendy Pullan, Rocio Sánchez Ameijeiras, Alison Stones, Stefan Trinks, Michele Vescovi, Rose Walker.

There is no registration per se, but seats must be reserved in advance. Reservations may be made on the IFA website closer to the date.
