Destruction of temples and their transformation into churches are
central symbols of late antique change in religious environment,
socio-political system, and public perception. Contemporaries were
aware of these events' far-reaching symbolic significance and of
their immediate impact as demonstrations of political power and
religious conviction. Joined in any "temple-destruction" are the
meaning of the monument, actions taken, and subsequent literary
discourse. Paradigms of perception, specific interests, and forms
of expression of quite various protagonists clashed.
Archaeologists, historians, and historians of religion illuminate
"temple-destruction" from different perspectives, analysing local
configurations within larger contexts, both regional and imperial,
in order to find an appropriate larger perspective on this
phenomenon within the late antique movement "from temple to
church."
