Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of the Christian altar, from early Jewish and Roman traditions to its final form in English churches. The author explores its physical elements, such as the altar slab, reredos, piscina, and sedilia, alongside its symbolic meanings and uses in Christian worship. The book argues that the altarâ"as a physical object, as a sacred symbol, and as the center of the Massâ"stands as a testament to the complex and evolving nature of Christian ritual and devotion. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the development of church architecture.
