Essays are sought for a collection on the historical, literary and
broader cultural significance of Walsingham, the medieval pilgrimage
site to the Virgin Mary, which was been revived in the Twentieth
Century. Modern accounts have generally focused on historical origins,
theology, or personal devotion: while these approaches will not be
ignored, essays are especially sought on artistic, anthropological,
architectural, poetical (e g Ballads, Ralegh's poem, Hamlet, Hopkins, T S Eliot, Robert Lowell), and broader cultural impact and significance including pilgrimage, cultural nostalgia, magic, goddess religion. Poems and photo-essays would be considered.
