520 _aIn this collection of essays, Peter Brown examines a phenomenon characteristic of the first millennium of Christianity, the belief in the tangible presence of the holy. Austere holy men dispensed rough justice in the country sides of the early Christian Near East. Pilgrims flocked to the relic shrines housed in the great basilicas of Gaul. As far apart as Ireland, Constantinople, and Novgorod, artist strained to render visible those points where the believer stood in the direct presence of the holy. With the mixture of art and learning that is the hallmark of his work, Peter Brown examines the person, sites, and artifacts at which the holy impinged on the day-to-day life of Late Antique society.
