Life Inside the Cloister

Book Description
Sacred architecture as reality and metaphor in secularised Western society Christian monasteries and convents, built throughout Europe for the best part of 1,500 years, are now at a crossroads. This study attempts to understand the sacred architecture of monasteries as a process of the tangible and symbolic organisation of space and time for religious communities. Despite the weight of seemingly immutable monastic tradition, architecture has contributed to developing specific religious identities and played a fundamental part in the reformation of different forms of religious life according to the changing needs of society. The cloister is the focal point of this book because it is both architecture, a physically built reality, and a metaphor for the religious life that takes place within it. Life Inside the Cloister also addresses the afterlife and heritagisation of monastic architecture in secularised Western society.

Book Description
If the church is said to be the soul of an abbey, the cloister is surely its heart. As the hub of all activity, through which monks progressed from task to task and prayer to prayer, its classic layout inspired some of the most extraordinary and varied architectural treasures of the world. Covering all of western Europe between the 9th and 15th centuries, and with an enlightening introduction to the history of religious orders and devotional life, this is a magnificently illustrated monument to art, antiquity and spiritual profundity. 185 full-colour photos.
