EMBODIED CONTESTATION: ALTERNATIVE RITUAL CONCLUSIONS ON THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO by CLARE VAN HOLM Under the Direction of Kathryn McClymond, PhD ABSTRACT Despite its nearly thousand year history as a Christian penitent ritual, the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage has undergone rapid transformation in the last three decades, attracting a specific community of people who see themselves as “authentic” Camino pilgrims. Upon arrival at the shrine of Santiago, the traditional end of the pilgrimage route, many pilgrims express feelings of dissatisfaction. Drawing upon field research and interviews, this paper analyzes the practices of pilgrims along the Camino de Santiago route, at the shrine in Santiago de Compostela, and at the alternative conclusion site in the Galician coastal town of Finisterre. I argue that pilgrim dissatisfaction relates to pilgrim experiences in Santiago that are incongruous with their pilgrimage up until that point. In response, pilgrims have created alternative ritual conclusions that more closely relate to their experience on the Camino route and affirm their identity as “authentic” pilgrims.

  • Final Report – Spain
    A CORUÑA – SPAIN Journal of the mobility February 2020 Arrival of all teams Sunday 16th February On Sunday 16th of February, our turn to be the host country had arrived, so, full of excitement, teachers and host families headed to Alvedro, our city airport to welcome all the teams. The 1st team to arrive was the Portuguese one, who unfortunately landed without luggage, but happy to be in A Coruña... 1st team: Portugal The 2nd team to arrive was the Italian one, who after flying to Santiago de Compostela, instead of A Coruña, arrived to the hotel where all the teachers were staying to be welcomed by the host families... 2nd team: Italy 3rd team: Lithuania 4th team: Czech Republic 5th team: Croatia 1st day, Welcome to: CPR Plurilingüe La Grande Obra de Atocha!! 17th February 2020 The first day in school started with a welcome ceremony by the youngest students in our school and their teachers, who gathered together with all the foreign teams, Spanish host students and teachers and the Spanish Headmistress. The ceremony consisted of a welcoming speech, a song about water, a traditional song and dance of our region performed by two of our older students and a final surprise where everyone played and symbolised a storm only using their hands, feet and body. It was time to explain our visitors the story of our School and our Founder “Don Baltasar Pardal Vidal” and then show them around our facilities: playgrounds, classrooms, canteen, library... Together with María Osuna, art and history teacher, we got the chance to get to know A Coruña, not all of it, but the surroundings of our School.

  • Art History of Spain in the History of Western Art, Spain
    Art History of Spain In the history of Western Art, Spain occupies a very significant and distinct position; after the French and the Italians, the Spanish are probably the most important contributors to the development and evolution of art in the Western Hemisphere. Over the centuries, numerous Spanish artists have contributed heavily to the development of European art in almost all the “major” fields like painting, sculpture and architecture. While Spanish art has had deep linkages with its French and Italian counterparts, Spain’s unique geographic location has allowed it to evolve its own distinct characteristics that set it quite apart from other European artistic traditions. Spain’s fascinating history of conquest and trade is inextricably linked to the evolution of its art. Cave Paintings of Altamira, Spain The earliest inhabitants of what is now modern-day Spain were known for their rich art traditions, especially with respect to cave-paintings from the Stone Age. The Iberian Mediterranean Basin in the regions of Aragon and Castile-La Mancha in eastern Spain, and the world famous Altamira Cave paintings in Cantabria are both UNESCO World Heritage sites that showcase vivid cave paintings from the Stone Age. Pre-Romanesque Period Over the course of history, Spain has been deeply influenced by the culture art of its neighbors, who were more often than not its conquerors. The Roman control over Hispania, from 2nd century BC to 5th century AD, had a deep influence on Spain, especially in its architecture dating from that period. The Aqueduct of Segovia, Alcantara Bridge and the Tower of Hercules Lighthouse are some of the important monuments from that period that still survive to-date.

Introduction 2. Geography of the Bay of Biscay 3. Hydrography 4. Biology of the Pelagic Ecosystem 5. Biology of Fishes and Main Fisheries 6. Changes and risks to the Bay of Biscay Marine Ecosystem 7. Concluding remarks Bibliography 1. Introduction The Bay of Biscay is an arm of the Atlantic Ocean, indenting the coast of W Europe from NW France (Offshore of Brittany) to NW Spain (Galicia). Tradition- ally the southern limit is considered to be Cape Ortegal in NW Spain, but in this contribution we follow the criterion of other authors (i.e. Sánchez and Olaso, 2004) that extends the southern limit up to Cape Finisterre, at 43∞ N latitude, in order to get a more consistent analysis of oceanographic, geomorphological and biological characteristics observed in the bay. The Bay of Biscay forms a fairly regular curve, broken on the French coast by the estuaries of the rivers (i.e. Loire and Gironde). The southeastern shore is straight and sandy whereas the Spanish coast is rugged and its northwest part is characterized by many large V-shaped coastal inlets (rias) (Evans and Prego, 2003). The area has been identified as a unit since Roman times, when it was called Sinus Aquitanicus, Sinus Cantabricus or Cantaber Oceanus. The coast has been inhabited since prehistoric times and nowadays the region supports an important population (Valdés and Lavín, 2002) with various noteworthy commercial and fishing ports (i.e.

  • Digital 3D Reconstruction of British 74-Gun Ship-Of-The-Line
    DIGITAL 3D RECONSTRUCTION OF BRITISH 74-GUN SHIP-OF-THE-LINE, HMS COLOSSUS, FROM ITS ORIGINAL CONSTRUCTION PLANS A Thesis by MICHAEL KENNETH LEWIS Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Filipe Castro Committee Members, Chris Dostal Ergun Akleman Head of Department, Darryl De Ruiter May 2021 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2021 Michael Lewis ABSTRACT Virtual reality has created a vast number of solutions for exhibitions and the transfer of knowledge. Space limitations on museum displays and the extensive costs associated with raising and conserving waterlogged archaeological material discourage the development of large projects around the story of a particular shipwreck. There is, however, a way that technology can help overcome the above-mentioned problems and allow museums to provide visitors with information about local, national, and international shipwrecks and their construction. 3D drafting can be used to create 3D models and, in combination with 3D printing, develop exciting learning environments using a shipwreck and its story. This thesis is an attempt at using an 18th century shipwreck and hint at its story and development as a ship type in a particular historical moment, from the conception and construction to its loss, excavation, recording and reconstruction. ii DEDICATION I dedicate my thesis to my family and friends. A special feeling of gratitude to my parents, Ted and Diane Lewis, and to my Aunt, Joan, for all the support that allowed me to follow this childhood dream. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my committee chair, Dr.

  • Famous Lighthouses Lighthouses Light up the Night to Protect Those at Sea and Guide Them Safely to Shore
    Discuss & Recall Famous Lighthouses Lighthouses light up the night to protect those at sea and guide them safely to shore. Although lighthouses are technically a purely utilitarian building, there is still something special about them that inspires. In this activity, you will learn about 10 unique and beautiful lighthouses that will capture your imagination. There are pictures of each lighthouse, discussion starters, a deeper dive into some terminology, and a break in the middle with a fun trivia pop quiz. Props & Preparations • This is a copy of the complete activity. • Use the Discussion Starters to spark a conversation about each section. • Print or project the corresponding images of the lighthouses as you read about them. The discussion questions will reference descriptions of the different lighthouses. There are also links throughout for a deeper dive into more technical or historical notes in case your group is interested in learning more about specifics. Chania Lighthouse • Use the additional activities at the end to enhance the activity. Famous Lighthouses Introduction Lighthouses act as a hopeful beacon of light to sailors looking for land under night skies. You can find these statuesque buildings at the entrances to stunning bays and harbors, welcoming those who have been at sea back to land. However, as navigational technology improves, we see fewer and fewer lighthouses as their beckoning light is needed less and less by modern-day sailors. There are still a number of lighthouses so breathtaking that whether or not they are functional, visitors find beauty in the architecture. Designed to be highly visible, lighthouses look striking against the rugged coastlines and wild seas they guard.
