Sacred Place in Early Medieval Neoplatonism Paperback / softback
by L. Harrington
Part of the The New Middle Ages series
Paperback / softback
Description
The twentieth-century discovered the concept of sacred place largely through the work of Martin Heidegger and Mircea Eliade.
Their writings on sacred place respond to the modern manipulation of nature and secularization of space, and so may seem distinctively post-modern, but their work has an important and unacknowledged precedent in the Neoplatonism of Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages.
Sacred Place in Early Medieval Neoplatonism traces the appearance and development of sacred place in the writings of Neoplatonists from the third to ninth centuries, and sets them in the context of present-day debates over place and the sacred.
