Hola Pergrinos....Hace much tiempo! I haven't abandoned you but I have moved house and have no internet connection just yet. Very frustrating when you have got a(nother) book to write.
My "Novel of the Camino" Pilgrimage to Heresy is about to be published in Spanish (July) under the title Peregrinos de la Herejia. The publisher is Editoriales Boveda, a division of ANAYA. In the meantime, I am trying to research book two of the Camino Chronicles which, without internet, is proving very tricky!
The book will be about the end of the 10th century and the beginning of the construction of the present cathedral and the rise to prominence of Diego Gelmirez and the Cluny influence. Priscillian's secret gospel is also brought up to date. The problem is that I am not an architect and have found very little available in English about the history of the cathedrals themselves. I can and do read Spanish, but technical terms are lengthy. I am also researching Diego Pelaez and Diego Gelmirez and the Traba family.
Can anyone suggest books, material, papers which might help me with my research in these areas?
It would be so appreciated.
P.S. Am walking Camino from Oporto in July as part of the research for the "present day" timeline of the book. It's also my 10th anniversary of the Camino Frances. What a difference that has made to my life in the intervening years. Can't wait to see those yellow arrows once more! Will finally be in Santiago for the 25th!
