520 _aThis anthology of twelve essays deals with the issues of sacred places and pilgrimages in India, illustrated with case studies representing different regional traditions and emphasising themes like Hindu textual traditions, Varakari tradition of pilgrimages, sacred space and planning, city of ancestral worship, religious tourism and place of sainthood, pilgrimage-tourism and contestation, Buddhist practices, archetypal symbolism, and seduction of history. This will open new directions of understanding in pilgrimage studies and heritage ecology.
