Description

Layered Landscapes examines how sacred space was conceptualized and constructed across five major faith traditions-Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, and Japanese religions-during the early modern period. This scholarly volume uses the concept of layered landscapes to trace how religious beliefs and practices accumulated over time, revealing tensions between established and emerging devotional patterns. The book analyses twelve carefully selected cities including Cuzco, Edo, Geneva, Granada, Herat, Istanbul, Jerusalem, Kanchipuram, Paris, Philadelphia, Prague, and Rome, demonstrating how new religious ideas were imposed upon pre-existing religious landscapes. Each chapter explores how different faiths transformed urban and sacred spaces, offering insights into religious adaptation, syncretism, and cultural exchange during a pivotal period of global religious change. This work is essential for historians, religious scholars, and anyone interested in understanding how communities negotiated spiritual identity across diverse geographical and cultural contexts.
