It is necessary to remark expressly, that the period of introduction or use of particular items of altar ornaments or furniture can only be stated generally, for such things were not introduced or used pursuant to canons of any general Council of the church, and rarely even of any provincial synod; and, therefore, it by no means follows that...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book provides a transnational history of Billy Graham's revival work in the 1950s, zooming in on his revival meetings in London (1954), Berlin (1954/1960), and New York (1957). It shows how Graham's international ministry took shape in the context of trans-Atlantic debates about the place and future of religion in public life after the experiences of war and at the onset of the Cold War, and through a constant exchange of people, ideas, and practices. It explores the transnational nature of debates about the religious underpinnings of the "Free World" and sheds new light on the contested relationship between business, consumerism, and religion. In the context of Graham's revival meetings, ordinary Christians, theologians, ministers and Church leaders in the United States, Germany, and the UK discussed, experienced, and came to terms with religious modernization and secular anxieties, Cold War culture and the rise of consumerism. The transnational connectedness of their political, economic, and spiritual hopes and fears brings a narrative to life that complicates our understanding of the different secularization paths the United States, the UK, and Germany embarked on in the 1950s. During Graham's altar call in Europe, the contours of a trans-Atlantic revival become visible, even if in the long run it was unable to develop a dynamism that could have sustained this moment in these different national and religious contexts"--

Book excerpt: What was the impact of the tomb of Christ in Jerusalem on the history of western Europe? Colin Morris shows that the Holy Sepulchre had a vital influence on pilgrimage, the Crusades, the cult of the Cross, and art and architecture. The recovery of the Tomb was a central objective of the Crusades, and so Morris examines the emergence of hostility between Christendom and Islam.

Download or read book Old Testament Apocryphal Images in European Art written by Elizabeth Philpot and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apokryferna är en samling dramatiska och spännande berättelser som saknas i den hebreiska bibeln men som Martin Luther ansåg vara både bra och nyttiga att läsa. De fanns ofta med i äldre svenska biblar men försvann gradvis under 1800-talet. I den nya svenska bibelöversättningen ingår de som "Tillägg till Gamla testamentet". Elizabeth Philpot har studerat utvecklingen av apokryfiska motiv, både i katolska och protestantiska delar av Europa. Hennes forskning visar att konstnärer har fängslats av berättelserna genom århundradena, med början i Roms katakomber och fram till slutet av 1800-talet. I södra Sverige (Halland, Blekinge och Skåne) återfinns motiv från de apokryfiska böckerna på bonader och bonadsmålningar och i Dalarna på dalmålningar, vilket är unikt för hela Europa. Dalmåleri var ett folkligt måleri som utövades av självlärda småbönder i Dalarna under knappt hundra år från 1770-talet och framåt.

Download or read book Defining the Holy written by Sarah Hamilton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Holy sites, both public - churches, monasteries, shrines - and more private - domestic chapels, oratories - populated the landscape of medieval and early modern Europe, providing contemporaries with access to the divine. These sacred spaces thus defined religious experience, and were fundamental to both the geography and social history of Europe over the course of 1,000 years. But how were these sacred spaces, both public and private, defined? How were they created, used, recognised and transformed? And to what extent did these definitions change over the course of time, and in particular as a result of the changes wrought in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Taking a strongly interdisciplinary approach, this volume tackles these questions from the point of view of archaeology, architectural and art history, liturgy, and history to consider the fundamental interaction between the sacred and the profane. Exploring the establishment of sacred space within both the public and domestic spheres, as well as the role of the secular within the sacred sphere, each chapter provides fascinating insights into how these concepts helped shape, and were shaped by, wider society. By highlighting these issues on a European basis from the medieval period through the age of the reformations, these essays demonstrate the significance of continuity as much as change in definitions of sacred space, and thus identify long term trends which have hitherto been absent in more limited studies. As such this volume provides essential reading for anyone with an interest in the ecclesiastical development of western Europe from the thirteenth to the eighteenth centuries.
