Summary:

"How can we understand the spirituality of space and place, and what about the spatiality of the sacred? What is the significance of built space for the experience and imaging of the God of the Here-and-Now? The authors of this book offer many-faceted contributions from architectural, artistic, philosophical and theological perspectives, as well as insights into ongoing research projects of relevance to the new interdisciplinary field."--BOOK JACKET.
