The Chapels of Notre Dame celebrates the university's unique
identity as a Catholic academic community where faith is treasured
and diverse traditions shared and respected. This stunning
large-format collection of over two hundred full-color photographs
brings to life the sixty chapels located throughout Notre Dame's
beloved campus, many of which are tucked away in little-known
settings waiting to be discovered by readers of this volume for the
first time. At Notre Dame, chapels are found in a number of
academic buildings and in every residence hall. Mass is celebrated
daily in some of these halls during term, and it is not uncommon to
see students and staff stopping in them for moments of quiet
meditation and prayer. The Chapels of Notre Dame captures these
sanctuaries, as well as the older chapels, the apsidal chapels of
the Basilica, and the Congregation of Holy Cross chapels. The text,
by well-known Notre Dame professor Lawrence S. Cunningham, provides
a picture of the worship in these chapels along with reflections on
the traditions, history, architecture, and art works that adorn
them. His brief descriptions evoke a powerful sense of presence,
worship, and prayer. Matt Cashore's dramatic photographs include
the campus landscape, interiors and exteriors of the chapels, and
people worshipping in varied seasons, lighting, and moods. His
photographs offer fresh ways to view the charming sloped roof of
All Souls Chapel, the large collection of relics assembled from the
days of Father Sorin in the Reliquary Chapel in the Basilica of the
Sacred Heart, the Holy Cross Chapel in the new Stinson-Remick
Engineering Hall, the striking stained-glass windows in the Moreau
Seminary Chapel of the Sacred Heart, and the unique chapels in each
of the residence halls. For alumni who have participated in
baptisms, weddings, anniversary celebrations, prayer services, and
other liturgical rites on campus, The Chapels of Notre Dame will
not disappoint. Prospective students, members of the Notre Dame
family, and friends and supporters who have seen the university
only from a distance will get an inside view of one of the most
beautiful campuses in the world and a unique contemplative side of
Notre Dame.
