description | The article dwells upon the theme of the
journey
in the Mediterranean, the
cradle of the three great monotheistic religions. Taking some paradigms for the
journey from mythology, history and from Revelation, the physical journey is
taken as a metaphor for the pilgrimage of life, an experience marked by maturation
and conversion. This spiritual pilgrimage ultimately consists in the individual’s
search for the Divine. |
