About This Item
Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2004. Soft cover. Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; remainder mark to upper edge; otherwise very minimal wear; spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; A tourist visiting the famous cathedral at Chartres might be surprised to discover an enormous labyrinth embedded in the 30th century floor. Why is it there? In this fascinating book, Craig Wright explores the complex symbolism of the labyrinth in architecture, religious thought, music, and dance from the Middle Ages to the present in Western art, architecture, music, dance, and religious thought. The journey of the maze is from sin to salvation; the savior figure that leads us is the warrior and spiritual seeker. His particular emphasis on music is refreshing and enlivens reader's understanding of the whole sensory experience of the Christian church.
