It still is. The Camino de Santiago represents more than a millennium of history and tradition. The network of routes that lead to Compostela in the northwest of Spain contributed significantly to the development of western European civilization. Today\, hundreds of thousands of modern pilgrims still tread these ancient paths on their way to Compostela\, engaging in an idealized re-creation of the medieval pilgrimage. In this lecture\, Mentley explores what it means to be a pilgrim on the Camino de Santiago in the 21st century. And who knows? You may hear the Camino de Santiago calling to you as well.\nMentley is a professor of Spanish in the Department of English and Foreign Languages at Lander University\, where he also serves as the director of study abroad. He earned B.A. degrees in Spanish and in psychology from Michigan State University\, and a Ph.D. in Spanish literature from Cornell University. A passionate believer in the art of pilgrimage\, Mentley walked his first Camino de Santiago in the winter of 2003. Since then\, he has walked Camino routes in Portugal\, Germany\, France and Spain. He has served as a volunteer hospitalero in Grañón\, and is a former chairman of the Board of Directors of American Pilgrims on the Camino. \nPlease visit www.lander.edu/events for updates and to confirm event times and venues.
