London in the middle of the 1800s was a subject endlessly sketched by artists, studied by social reformers, and discussed by writers. This comprehensive collection of drawings by Gustave Dor,̌ France's most celebrated graphic artist of the period, presents a panoramic portrait of that engrossing city - from fashionable ladies riding in a sunlit park to ragged wretches in a shadowy side street. Here are amazingly perceptive sketches of workaday London, busy market places, the Christy Minstrels, a waterman's family, thieves gambling, the Devils' Acre in Westminster, flower girls, waifs and strays, a wedding at the Abbey, provincials in search of lodgings, a garden party, prisoners in the Newgate exercise yard, stalls at Covent Garden Opera House, and many other scenes that capture the London of a bygone era.

Legendary Artist Gustave Dorè spent years creating this visual masterpiece depicting the broad spectrum of humanity that inhabited Victorian Era London. In the mid 19th century, Journalist Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Dorè set out on a journey to document the people and culture of London. Originally printed in 1872, this Retro Restored Special Edition includes: -The original type font -Classic page layouts -Crisp digitally re-scanned and enhanced images -More than 170 engravings -8 1/2" x 11" printing -Bold new cover design -Introduction Master artist Gustave Dorè (1832-1883), known for the lavish illustrations in Dante's Inferno, Paradise Lost, and Don Quixote, depicted London, England, in his charismatic and detailed way that nobody else could. His masterful engravings shed light on the dimly-lit back alleys, seedy docks, and market districts made famous by Charles Dicken's novels, Sherlock Holmes, and countless period dramas. Blanchard's writing compliments Dorè's artwork to give readers a contemporary guide through the city's underbelly, to the parks, and past some of its most famous locales such as Parliament and St. John's Cathedral. Fans of highly detailed artwork, graphic novels, and comic strips will find themselves lost for hours in Dorè's meticulous drawings of bustling city streets and river scenes. His playful renderings of London's most interesting characters feel remarkably modern and timelessly fascinating for readers into the 21st-century and beyond.

This guidebook details the Pilgrims' Way, an historic pilgrimage route to Canterbury Cathedral in Kent, home of the shrine of the martyred archbishop, St Thomas Becket. The route is described both from Winchester in Hampshire (138 miles) and London's Southwark Cathedral (90¼ miles), with an optional spur to Rochester Cathedral. With relatively easy walking on ancient byways, the route from Winchester is presented in 15 stages of 5-14 miles: it can be comfortably completed in under a fortnight. It follows a major chalk ridge through scenic countryside, taking in characterful towns and villages and historic churches. The route from Southwark is described in 10 stages and includes a visit to the ruined Lesnes Abbey. Detailed route description is accompanied by 1:50,000 OS mapping, advice on making the most of a trip and information on the historical background to the pilgrimage, key historical figures and local points of interest. Accommodation listings and details of facilities and transport links can be found in the appendices. Pilgrimages to Becket's shrine began within a few years of the his death in 1170, although Canterbury was a popular destination even before this time due to the nearby shrine of St Augustine. The route has featured in literature, drama and film, and forms the setting for Geoffrey Chaucer's famous Middle English work, The Canterbury Tales.

The study of pilgrimage often centres itself around miracles and spontaneous populist activities. While some of these activities and stories may play an important role in the emergence of potential pilgrimage sites and in helping create wider interest in them, this book demonstrates that the dynamics of the marketplace, including marketing and promotional activities by priests and secular interest groups, create the very consumerist markets through which pilgrimages become established and successful – and through which the ‘sacred’ as a category can be sustained. By drawing on examples from several contexts, including Japan, India, China, Vietnam, Europe, and the Muslim world, author Ian Reader evaluates how pilgrimages may be invented, shaped, and promoted by various interest groups. In so doing he draws attention to the competitive nature of the pilgrimage market, revealing that there are rivalries, borrowed ideas, and alliances with commercial and civil agencies to promote pilgrimages. The importance of consumerism is demonstrated, both in terms of consumer goods/souvenirs and pilgrimage site selection, rather than the usual depictions of consumerism as tawdry disjunctions on the ‘sacred.’ As such this book reorients studies of pilgrimage by highlighting not just the pilgrims who so often dominate the literature, but also the various other interest groups and agencies without whom pilgrimage as a phenomenon would not exist.
