Asian Travel in the Renaissance (review)
although the choices are not always obvious. Both Jennifer Lee, analyzing miracle stories, and Sarah Blick, analyzing, inter alia, pilgrims’ badges, perform contextual analyses of the Shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury, and reading them sideby-side would have proven fruitful. Likewise, I would have preferred to read Rita Tekippe’s essay about relationships between pilgrimage and processions alongside M. Cecilia Gaposchkin’s, which treats Amiens Cathedral as a case study of the same issues. One shortcoming is the rather uninspired layout of the volumes, with the bulky volume 1 containing all the text, and the slender volume 2 the black-andwhite images. This aside, the contributors deserve sincere congratulations for assembling the most extensive and useful group of studies about the intersection of image and pilgrimage in Northern Europe ever published.
