De Gruyter The Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth: Where the word became flesh
The Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth is among the most celebrated loca sancta in the Holy Land, a sacred destination of both Eastern and Western pilgrims for millennia. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the modern edifice, this anthology is the first to offer a comprehensive study of the church, comprising the historical stages of its construction from the Byzantine era, through Crusader and Franciscan campaigns, and into the present day; the impact of the Second Vatican Council on the reception of modern elements of its architecture; and studies of its decorative elements including stained-glass windows, bronze doors, and votive panels from all over the world. These various analyses take into consideration the complex challenges facing Christian art in a multicultural world.
