ABSTRACT. The assemblage of objects that constitute the publicly visible religious landscape of the United States—houses of worship and a variety of church‐related enterprises—deviates so markedly from its counterparts in other lands that we can regard its uniqueness as a significant argument for American exceptionalism. The diagnostic features in question include the extraordinary number and variety of churches and denominations, their special physical attributes, the near‐random microgeography of churches in urban areas, and, most especially, their nomenclature and the widely distributed signage promoting godliness and religiosity. Such landscape phenomena suggest connections with much‐deeper issues concerning the origin and evolution of American society and culture. 相似文献

This excursion report describes briefly the ecclesiastical geology of seven localities in West London. It reveals that building stones related to local geology were particularly important in the construction of early churches. For this reason wall building fabric analyses of churches are also able to indicate an enormous amount of local geological information. Where London Basin rocks were unsuitable for structural aspects of these churches it was sometimes necessary to use rock types from more distant sources. 相似文献

According to Madeley’s (2003) comparative framework of state–church relations in Europe, Poland is part of the historic Northeast-Southeast multi-confessional
culture belt. The aim of this paper is to analyse the historic relationships between the Polish state and church in relation
to this framework with special attention to the post-Second World War period and to the consequences for the Polish religious
landscape. In contrast to the multi-confessionality of the historic Polish polities, after the Second World War Poland became
a mono-confessional, Roman-Catholic country. Territorial changes, the resettlement of people and the annihilation of the Jewish
population by the Nazis were responsible for this religious homogenisation. Consequently, the relationship between state and
church was almost completely confined to the relationship with the Roman-Catholic Church. During the 45 years of communist
dominance, that church became the largest public organisation independent of the state authorities and played the most important
role in the struggle against the ‘atheisation’ of Polish society as a consequence of the strong support for the church by
the majority of people. The post–1989 period is characterised by a liberalisation towards non-Catholic religious communities
and – after an initial reluctance – a positive attitude of the Polish Roman-Catholic Church (strongly supported by the Polish
Pope John Paul II) towards the Polish membership of the European Union.

The long sequence of Pigot’s plans of Manchester and Salford is used to test the concept that the dates of churches and chapels can be used as a valuable indicator of the completeness of the coverage of large-scale nineteenth-century town plans. The approach appears to hold some promise and suggests that Pigot’s plans were surprisingly comprehensive. This may reflect not merely his drawing on existing surveys but, more interestingly, may be the incidental product of collecting data for his town directories. The methodology could usefully be extended to explore the value of directory plans of other towns. 相似文献

ABSTRACT. The three Pueblo mission churches of San Esteban del Rey, Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, and San José de Laguna are the most visually striking structures in the western New Mexico pueblos of Acoma, Zuni, and Laguna. Prime examples of “structures of permanence” on the landscape, the churches define local cultural identity. Church permanence and Pueblo identity are expressed in a five‐part typology of visible characteristics: natural materials and hand labor, massive exterior form, adjoining cemeteries, syncretism of interior decorations, and structural decay and rebirth. Permanence must, however, be understood as an evolving condition, undergoing new representations as multicultural relationships evolve. 相似文献

On 31 October and 1 November 2002, two earthquakes took place in the Italian region of Molise. 29 deaths were reported, while
many buildings collapsed or suffered major damage. The tectonics of the earthquakes and historic seismicity of the area are
briefly described. The distribution of damage and macroseismic intensity are confronted with the current seismic zonation
of the region. In particular, the paper deals with the damage suffered by different types of structures, namely masonry and
RC buildings and historical churches. The observed damage is mainly attributed to the poor quality of the materials and execution
of construction, lack of maintenance and protective devices (e.g., steel ties), as well as to structural interventions. Reference
is made to the management of the post-earthquake emergency.
