Cartography of Hospitality on Pilgrimage Routes: The Mapping Hospitals Project
ANALES DE GEOGRAFIA DE LA UNIVERSIDAD COMPLUTENSE(2021)
摘要
By combining digital methods with textual sources, the Mapping Hospitals project seeks to study hospitals located in Galicia in the mid-eighteenth century that offered accommodation and care to pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela, with a twofold purpose. On the one side, we aim to approach hospitals as a whole. That is, we are not focused on individual architectures that stand out due to its historical or artistic features, but on the network of buildings that provided charitable hospitality in a time period when this pilgrimage was not as important as in the Middle Ages, but it did existed. On the other hand, we propose to create a digital map to offer open access to the project outcomes to all people who may be interested. The digital map tries to become not only a means of dissemination, but also a tool for an ongoing research towards new discoveries around hospitality and pilgrimage in the St. James Way by means of computer-aided analysis and interactive web-based presentation.
