Synopsis

Vestiarium Christianum is a book that explores the history and evolution of the dress worn by members of the clergy in the Christian Church. Written by Wharton B. Marriott, the book provides a comprehensive look at the origin and gradual development of the vestments worn by priests, bishops, and other members of the clergy during religious services. The book delves into the symbolism and significance of each garment, as well as the changes that occurred over time in response to cultural and religious shifts. With detailed illustrations and in-depth analysis, Vestiarium Christianum is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian liturgy and the role of dress in religious practice.1868. Historical or antiquarian investigation is one thing, theological controversy is another. There is time, and there is place, for both; but not for both the same time and the same place, without disadvantage to the former of the two. Under this conviction the author studiously put aside all reference to the passing controversies of this day, and made it his one object to collect every fact of importance bearing upon the subject immediately before him, to set it before the readers in such a way as shall enable them to form their own estimate of its value, and at the same time to offer, for whatever its worth, the interpretation which he believed to be the true one.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints.
