Lady Travellers of the Middle Ages
Lady Travelers of the Middle Ages proposes an itinerary through the lives of XXX women that traveled around the world in the Middle Ages.
Women have always traveled. Running away from the family circle of husbands, fathers or brothers has been one of the reasons for setting out on the road. Dressed as peregrines, they transited the paths to the Holy Land, to Rome or to Santiago. When they met, these female peregrines celebrated it. They traveled with such eagerness that some of them did not stop traveling even in death. This book is a tribute to all of these women, those whose names we know and the anonymous ones, but not for that less important. This book is a testimony that us women have always been on the road.
