Medieval attempts to capture a glimpse of heaven range from the
ethereal to the mundane, utilizing media as diverse as maps,
cathedrals, songs, treatises, poems, visions and sewer systems.
Heaven was at once the goal of the individual Christian life and
the end of the cosmic plan. It was, simply stated, perfection. But
interpretations varied from the traditional to the dangerously
unique as artists and authors, theologians and visionaries
struggled to define that perfection. Depending on the source,
heaven's attributes vary from height to depth, darkness to light,
silence to symphony; the souls within it from activity to
passivity, experience to essence, participation to distant
admiration. Questions addressed in this anthology include: Are
erotic and spiritual love mutually exclusive? Does the soul's
happiness depend on the resurrection of the body? What will be the
nature of the transfigured body? Will it retain its gender? Will it
have senses? Will it know desire? How can desire and fulfillment
exist together? Can the human soul ever know God?
First Published in 2000. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
