- This book is based on extensive archival research, undertaken over five years. The project combines anlaysis of five centuries of medieval Welsh poetry (requiring specific language skills) with hagiography, chronicles and a substantial number of letters. These are linked to modern theories of pilgrimage. The six thematic chapters shed new light on the group performance of virtual pilgrimage in pre-modern oral culture, and challenge existing understanding of the political use of pilgrimage and cults in Anglo-Welsh relations across the middle ages.
