In 1977 The Metropolitan Museum of Art presented Age of Spirituality: Late Antique and Early Christian Art, Third to Seventh Century,
the largest exhibition ever to focus on the period that spans the
transition between the classical and medieval ages. In keeping with the
didactic spirit of the exhibition, the Museum held a symposium in
November 1977 to provide the public with a broad background for
appreciation of this little-known field and to offer art historians the
provocative speculations and conclusions of their colleagues. In
addition to art history, the distinguished scholars who participated in
the symposium discussed the theology, literature, politics, economics,
and architecture of the first centuries of the Christian Era. With its
treatment of this complex period in scope and depth, Age of Spirituality: A Symposium
is an ideal companion volume to the comprehensive exhibition catalogue,
published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art in association with
Princeton University Press.
