Kinship and Pilgrimage: Rituals of Reunion in American Protestant Culture
Neville, Gwen Kennedy (Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, Southwestern University (Emeritus))
The twin concepts of kinship and pilgrimage have deep roots in Protestant culture. This cultural anthropological study, drawing on fieldwork in Scotland and the American South, argues that in Reformed Protestantism, the Catholic custom of making pilgrimages to sacred spots has been replaced by the custom of "reunion".
