Download or read book The Mystic Cave written by Michele Bacci and published by Convivia. This book was released on 2017 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is the first monographic book published in English, since 1910, on the history of the Nativity Church in Bethlehem. In comparison to other Holy Land monuments, the latter underwent relatively minor alterations in the course of time: spared from the destructions that affected other holy sites, such as the Holy Sepulchre, the basilica at Bethlehem stands out for its still well preserved architecture, dating from the late 6th century, and its exuberant mosaic decors completed in 1169, in the period of Crusader rule in Palestine. This book offers a general description of the vicissitudes of the holy site since its very beginnings in Late Antiquity until the present times, with a special focus on the ways in which the complex relationship between the underground holy site, the Nativity cave housing the very spot of Christ's birthplace and the manger, and the sumptuously decorated upper church came to be variously negotiated in the course of time by means of different forms of mise-en-scene. The book is accompanied by a rich apparatus of colour illustrations, plans, and a bibliographic annex.

Book excerpt: "The Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem is one of the few medieval monuments whose decoration, preserved, even if partially, in its original state until recently, can be almost completely reconstructed on behalf of surviving mosaics and wall paintings, in situ inscriptions, and rich written evidence from the Middle Ages and early modern times. The decorative program, dating back to the third quarter of the twelfth century, represents a unique testimony of its time, touching to historical, theological, and art-historical aspects"--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis The Trip to Bethlehem by : Hypatia Hasbrouck
Download or read book The Trip to Bethlehem written by Hypatia Hasbrouck and published by Unity Books. This book was released on 2021-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trip to Bethlehem reveals that the traditional Christmas story has an even deeper meaning than you might have imagined. The basics are familiar-the stable, the babe in the manger, the shepherds, the wise men following a star-in this account that blends two different Bible stories with some modern embellishments. But Hypatia Hasbrouck takes it further.Every character in the story, every animal, object, or place has a metaphysical, symbolic meaning that represents a part of your consciousness. From King Herod's ego to Mary's purity, each of us embodies aspects of the people and elements of the Nativity. The trip to Bethlehem is the interior journey we take to discover and develop the Christ that was born in each of us.
