International Seminar on Medieval Religious History: “Material Actants of Jerusalem – Pilgrimage in Late Medieval Iberia” – Nicolas Jaspert (Universität Heidelberg)

The Institute of Medieval Studies (IEM-NOVA FCSH), in partnership with the Centre of Religious History Studies (UCP-CEHR), runs the International Seminar on Medieval Religious History, which thus returns with a new format and scope but in the tradition of the previous Medieval Religious History Seminar cycles, interrupted in 2013.

In 2021/2022, and in coordination with the PEREGRINATIO Research Network for the Study of Pilgrimage in the Middle Ages in Portugal, the Seminar will adopt “Shrines, Relics and Pilgrimages” as its general theme. The sessions are held on the first Thursday of each month, at 6pm, by Zoom and open to all those interested.

Professor Nicolas Jaspert (Universität Heidelberg) is the keynote speaker at the conference on 3 February, entitled Material Actants of Jerusalem – Pilgrimage in Late Medieval Iberia.
