Please pay attention to this course!

This is the only opportunity to attend this lecture, so as Dr. Karel Innemee will teach it only this semester:

The Church Building in its Form and Function

This unit offers an analysis of the church building as a whole, serving as a functional and symbolical environment and backdrop for the liturgy. Icons, wall paintings, and other furnishings will be discussed in their context, where they serve a common goal of underscoring the meaning of the ritual of the liturgy.
